Blueprint Columbus sincerely apologizes for the delay in rain garden maintenance. Unfortunately, our team encountered a contract issue delaying the performing of this work on behalf of the Department of Public Utilities. This issue led to an unexpected delay in service. Fortunately, the Department is in the final stages of contract work to get maintenance back on track.
To all our neighbors with rain gardens on or near their property, we remain committed to maintaining your rain gardens! We are confident our updated maintenance plan will better address the direct needs of our residents, within a shorter response time. Should you have questions or concerns, feel free to email us directly at blueprint@columbus.gov or call 614-645-1253. As in the past, we ask you not to perform maintenance on the rain gardens yourself, as they are directly connected to the city storm sewer system. Thank you for your continued patience!
