Climate Action - Quick Fact #6

Did you know that one of our recently opened public spaces is the setting for environmental restoration?

The Dwight and Rosamond Moore Community Wetlands is a restored site that was repurposed into a wetland ecosystem to showcase the natural environment. Over time the natural landscape will support a diversity of wetlands that will improve habitat for species at risk, including the barn swallow, black swift, common nighthawk, little brown myotis, and the western toad. The wetlands will provide habitat for a diversity of wildlife, including warblers, hummingbirds, waterfowl, wading birds, shorebirds, frogs, toads, salamanders, and bats. Additionally, the project provides increased habitat for pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and moths.
