Rain Garden Maintenance

We appreciate your cooperation in keeping our streams clean and neighborhoods green! Rain Gardens are maintained by the City of Columbus/Blueprint Columbus, whether they are in the residential public right-of-way or part of a regional basin design.

How Maintenance Works

Maintenance Plan

  • Rain Gardens are maintained every month by the city; there is no responsibility for the homeowner
  • Five contractors are on the street, servicing their dedicated contract areas
  • Crews spend the first week of the month conducting quality and health inspections
  • The second and third weeks of the month are reserved for physical basin work in a given area
  • Crews then complete a post-maintenance inspection and submit that to the Blueprint team
  • Residents are asked not to enter or maintain the gardens themselves as they directly connect to the storm sewer system
