Shreveport Pervious Pavement Guidelines for Planned Unit Developments

This guideline emphasizes the reduction of impervious surfaces in Planned Unit Developments and Small Planned Unit Developments. It suggests techniques like low impact development, and encourages the increased use of pervious paving materials. Pervious paving is defined as sustainable materials and techniques that allow stormwater to move through the surface into a base and sub-base below, excluding materials like gravel and loose rock.
