1. Are all of the trees in the park going to be removed?

No, only trees within the construction limits for the project will be removed. Existing trees outside these limits will remain and more trees will be planted as part of the project’s stream restoration.

2. How will the project impact neighbors of the park?

Construction equipment will be used in the stream restoration project, to reshape the stream channel, install storm drain lines, and move heavy items, such as trees and rocks. There will be some disturbance and inconvenience while the construction takes places, but the end goal should be a drastic improvement that is worthy of the disturbance.

3. What is stream restoration?

Stream restoration repairs or restores a damaged stream to a more natural condition.

4. What will the stream restoration look like?

There will be large construction equipment, bare soil, and some trees will be cut down for access. Construction equipment will need to cross the streams and work in the streams. Stream water may be pumped around the construction work area during the project. We will replant shrubs and trees when we finish the project.
