Council Member Abbie Kamin is excited to launch our annual rain barrel program for District C!
You must purchase your rain barrel within 5 business days of receiving the purchase link - if you do not purchase your rain barrel by this date, you forfeit your spot to a resident on the waitlist.
Rain Barrel Sale! The District C Office is sponsoring 150 rain barrels at a subsidized cost of $10 each. One barrel per address/household per transaction to ensure all District C residents an opportunity to purchase one.
Purchased rain barrels must be picked up on Saturday, April 19 between 9AM and 12PM during your assigned time slot. Additional information will be provided in advance of pick-up.
Please email anna.smith@houstontx.gov and districtc@houston.gov if you have any questions about the District C Rain Barrel Distribution.
Why Rain Barrels?: Harvesting rainwater contributes to flood mitigation, water quality, and water conservation. A rain barrel reduces the amount of stormwater runoff from your home, and you can use the collected rainwater for watering your lawn and garden, which in turn reduces your municipal water usage! Water is a vital natural resource- conserving it and preserving its quality is not only good for your home and neighborhood, but also good for our environment.
