I shall never see a ditch as lovely as a tree, by Jonah Tebbetts
After a few bursts of rain Saturday morning, March 29, 2008, the entry to Aspen Ridge (future Hill Place?) began filling with muddy water from the failed development site. Soon it was overflowing into an unfinished storm drain (top photo) and flowing from a storm sewer directly into the rising Town Branch of the West Fork of the White River on the upstream side of the Eleventh Street bridge (bottom photo, where a sewer pipe installed for the convenience of the Aspen Ridge developers blocks a high percentage of the flow and caused water to flow over the bridge only a few days earlier.)

You give us one decent photo of spring blossoms and think it is OK to start back slapping the developers around.
We need a preacher to come to this site and comment on the lack of Christian charity you show toward these benefactors of our local environment.
