NOTE TO USERS: Most of the sites
provided in the planning topic pages are either from government, non-profit,
or educational agencies; however, some of the sites are commercial and are
included because of the array of materials provided in the site. The planning
topic pages are provided as a public service and are not meant to endorse
one site over another nor to endorse any commercial enterprise. Site suggestions
are welcome, although all suggestions will go through a screening process.
In order to suggest a site for inclusion, email the Planning Department.

This represents the minimum standards established by the Virginia Department
of Conservation and Recreation. Landscaping is not, however, the only available
method. Please see the Stormwater Management Information pages for other methods.
- VIRGINIA COOPERATIVE EXTENSION SERVICE
The Virginia Cooperative Extension Service offers a broad range of materials
on home gardening (including monthly garden tips, articles on annuals, perennials,
and bulbs, and landscaping maintenance and construction) and landscaping (tree
selection, insect identification, and pruning), as well as a host of other
subjects. If you are landscaping in Virginia, this should be your first stop.
If you are looking at this page, but not from Virginia, please check with
your state's cooperative extension service for information specific to your
climate and needs. Most cooperative extension services are administered by
the states' landgrant universities.
- NATURAL LANDSCAPING
FOR PUBLIC OFFICIALS: A SOURCE BOOK
An Environmental Protection Agency publication. The online publication includes
defintions and an overview, indepth information, tools, a glossary, plant
lists, sample ordinances, and materials for using natural landscaping.
