"What possibly could the cities of Brookfield and Oak Creek, Alverno College, Miller Park, All Peoples Church, Lakefront Brewery, R&K Cudahy Storage and Milwaukee County Parks have in common?
They are among 21 communities, schools, churches and businesses planning to install rain capturing projects — from rooftop gardens and porous pavement to cisterns, wetlands and roadside swales — with a financial assist from the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District.
All Peoples Church on N. 2nd St. will use a cistern with a solar-powered pump to collect rain for a 30-tree fruit orchard, as well as a rain garden to prevent storm water from flowing into the street."
