[State - Locality] Missouri - Kansas City [Initiative Type] Demonstration Project [Link] Green Parking Lots Case Studies - Vehicle Impound Facility (Kansas City, Mo.) (PDF) [Date] Completed [Title & Description] 
Vehicle Impound Facility - Pervious pavement could not be used for this project because of the high percentage of chemical sediment contamination that is released from impounded vehicles. As an alternative, a large bioswale was added to the facility to infiltrate the stormwater runoff. Median landscaping and plantings around the building were also added to curb the heat island effect.
