说明

Just inside the section of Brookbanks Park ravine (south of Brookbanks Dr) the retaining wall and waterfall (used to aerate the creek) have been collapsed into Deerlick Creek for roughly a decade. I believe this occurred during the flood of 2005. The entire creek is an utterly dilapidated, polluted mess, but this particular section is the worst. No effort has been made to address this unacceptable state of affairs. I am sick and tired of looking at this embarrassing, filthy cesspool of rubble and litter on a daily basis. All the caged riprap (used to prevent erosion) should be removed and replaced with native vegetation (which will anchor the banks of the creek and return it to a more naturalized state (this really ought to be done across the entire ravine network, but I digress). I want this issue to finally be given some consideration and to be 'properly' repaired with native vegetation -- as I stated above -- and not more rip rap, armourstone, etc. Also, all the concrete should be removed from the creek. This isn't a dump; though it sure looks like one.
