“From day one, the Board wanted a permeable lot, a view heightened by the long-term drought in the southeast which drastically lowered lake levels and threatened drinking water supplies. They visited pervious concrete and permeable interlocking concrete pavement projects in the region. This raised everyone’s confidence in these types of systems. The board went with PICP because of easy repairs and a better looking surface.”

"Permeable interlocking concrete pavements are a logical choice for
effective stormwater management. High quality interlocking concrete
pavers provide a hard and durable surface not subject to surface abrasion and raveling while effectively transferring surface water to the underlying open
graded aggregate which provides storage and filtering capabilities."
