We’re sending you this message to let you know that swales are designed with vegetation to slow down water flow, facilitate groundwater recharge, and filter pollutants from urban runoff. Effective swale design not only mitigates flooding risks but also enhances biodiversity by supporting diverse plant and animal species. Please do not remove this vegetation. Thank you for reporting this matter.
