Do you enjoy lakes and streams in your community? What do you like about these resources? What challenges should be addressed when planning to protect and improve lakes and streams? The Bassett Creek Watershed Management Commission (BCWMC) is looking for input to help prioritize its work over the next 10 years.

While most of St. Louis Park lies within the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District, some areas in northern St. Louis Park, like Westwood Hills Nature Center, drain to the north and into Bassett Creek.

The BCWMC would like to hear from neighborhood groups, community organizations and residents about issues related to environmental and natural resource quality, especially those issues that affect the quality of streams, lakes and natural areas. Your input will help prioritize where to focus attention, determine which areas need more work and identify partners who can help. Take the online survey.

To request a paper copy of the survey, to be added to a mailing list for updates or to request a presentation at an event, contact BWCMC Administrator Laura Jester at laura.jester@keystonewaters.com or 952.270.1990 or complete the contact form.
