The Mississippi Watershed Management Organization (MWMO) is a “joint-powers local government unit and one of approximately three dozen watershed organizations in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Our member communities include Columbia Heights, Fridley, Hilltop, Lauderdale, Minneapolis, the Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board, St. Anthony Village and Saint Paul” (see map below). In 2019, the MWMO will begin to update their Watershed Management Plan.

The MWMO has a Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC), which meets at the request of the MWMO Board of Commissioners (typically 3 times per year). Click here for more information about the CAC. For more information about the MWMO in general, be sure to check out their website at https://www.mwmo.org/ or call 612-746-4970.
