Unnecessary hardscape can be found all around urban areas from paved but unused traffic and parking lot islands to rarely used overflow parking. Many of the strategies described previously are primarily for the purpose of reducing impervious area on a macro scale. The following strategies provide examples of how to reduce impervious area on a micro or lot level scale. Individually, these reductions in impervious area may seem small but they can add up to substantial decreases in runoff and infrastructure costs.
