Alan Asselstine: The Sawmill Creek Subwatershed Study has been completed: it recommends the construction of three large ponds between the Airport Parkway and the railroad and the construction of berms behind the houses on Plante Drive that back onto the Airport Parkway. Construction was paid for from development fees collected over the past 10 years. We need to push for a pedestrian walkway to connect Plante Drive with the South Keys Shopping Centre, the walkway would go under the Airport Parkway by means of a tunnel.
