Protecting Water Quality
Working hard to design a water quality protection program that meets the needs of our community.
In response to storm water requirements mandated by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Kentucky Division of Water (KDOW), the City of Pewee Valley has developed a water quality protection program that focuses on improving the quality of life of our citizens.
Pewee Valley, as well as Oldham County and other communities across the state and the country, have made the choice to fund their storm water program through a storm water utility.

The City appreciates the input of its residents on how to use limited funding to provide value to you while meeting regulatory requirements. We welcome your feedback. If you have any questions, please contact us by calling Town Hall, 241-8343.
