Cedar Springs Presbyterian ChurchLow Impact Parking Improvements
Cannon & Cannon, Inc. (CCI) was contracted for the design of additional and overflow parking for Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church. The additional parking consisted of asphalt parking with curb. Overflow parking design consisted of a 1.5 acre vegetated parking surface using in Presto GeoBlock paver system. The previous site stormwater was conveyed off-site by a series of culverts and vegetated swales. Stormwater flooding of adjacent properties and streets was common due to limited downstream capacity. The site design elements included:
- Incorporating a retention pond, designed for removal of 80% TSS.
- The retention pond was designed to accommodate both the developed conditions runoff, but also to improve the existing issues associated with stormwater conveyance off-site.
- The site design also included the construction of a groundwater well and pump station to provide irrigation for the new vegetated parking surface as well as the existing church ballfield and landscaping.
