The installation of permeable pavers at Zion Circle and Myrtle Street in Roswell will be extended by about 160 feet thanks to additional grant funding from the Georgia Environmental Protection Division.

The Roswell City Council approved a resolution to accept $56,323 from the state to extend the pavers on Zion. The city’s required match is $85,937, for a total revised budget of $503,306, according to a staff report to the Council.

“The goal of this project is to treat stormwater runoff and improve water quality, flood protection and the overall condition and health of city receiving waters,” staff said. The city’s Environmental/Public Works Department are responsible for the project.

In related action, the Council approved a $38,424 contract with Brown and Caldwell for additional engineering services related to the Zion pavers.
