This project has been
designed to stabilize and enhance approximately 3,600 linear
feet within the Foss Park Golf Course. The banks of the
drainage ditch are currently very steep at places and eroded.
This project will re-configure the ditch to provide for
moderate bank sloping and to stabilize the base of the slopes
by installing tree revetments and coir rolls.
Once completed, the
drainage ditch will have a more uniform channel which will
reduce water velocity during high water events thereby reducing
erosion and flooding. In addition, these project
improvements will enhance water quality and general safety in
and around the drainage ditch.
The District has received
permits from the Corps of Engineers and the Lake County
Stormwater Management Agency.
Construction began in
October of 2009.
