Views of 12th Street on Nov. 1 and Nov. 20, 2007




The red dirt was filled in to make the end of the 12th Street safer, Hank Broyles said on Tuesay morning. It is unclear that city officials actually understood what was planned.

The leopard frogs, burrowing crayfish and birds and wildlife that had been using the water hole during the weeks without significant rain won't like it. However, maybe some people who worried about possible mosquitoes during summer and some who feared a car would run off the end of the street into the proposed street extension may feel safer. The red dirt in the street and runoff from the red dirt to the adjacent wetland and small branch that flows east to Town Branch, of course, is something we hope doesn't occur.

We understand that Hank is trying to do the right things to solve some of the problems that have affected the neighbors and the environment since 2005.
