The Harris Creek Watershed Plan for Stormwater Management
"Moving Along"

(3)-What makes this a viable Plan and gives it Hope is what is going on in the "greening" parts of the Watershed. Let's take a Look!

Habitat for Humanity






Not to be forgotten are the Two Parks, Patterson Park and Clifton Park and the many vacant lots being turned into green spaces. Also to be included are the many Churches and Schools. Connecting these green points of lights and increasing the Gathering Spaces are part of the Humane Metropolis Initiative that serves as our Strategy for improving the Quality of Life in these impoverished areas. We can not expect to develop an effective Stormwater Plan for this Watershed unless we show an attempt to change the Culture of Despair that exists. Finding and Identifying Effective Stakeholders in each of the 17 Neighborhoods will be a Tool that we will seek to employ. Stay tuned in..............best,BHWA
