Our Mission
To be better environmental stewards, Henrico County Department of Public Works is taking on a multi-year study of pollination areas. These pollinator enhancement areas were designated to:
- Reduce mowing cost
- Decrease emissions
- Eliminate noise
- Increase native plant life
- Support local wildlife
- Enhance roadside attractiveness
Moving Forward
There are currently 5 pilot sites designated for this initial study. Sites will be monitored for wildlife and plant growth for the duration of the study. Surveillance will also include management of non-native plants and animals..
We are committed to improving Henrico County and to being the very best environmental stewards we can be!
