- The water from the tank will be able used to water the native plants (which is needed for the first 2 years) and trees.
- The tank will educate about the impact of stormwater by being on display and demonstrating its functions.
- Tours will be given to the water tank. generate revenue
- The native plants will be on display to encourage citizens of Kansas City, Missouri to adopt some of the native plants with long root systems into their life.
