Hey Upper Rockyford! I would love to see our entire neighborhood at this meeting! Come support this effort, please. Thanks!
The Gills Creek Watershed Association is hosting a critical meeting for residents living in the Gills Creek Watershed on Thursday, December 6th from 6:30 pm until 7:30 pm in Richland County Council Chambers, 2020 Hampton Street.
The purpose of the meeting is to discuss action items regarding the restoration of the Gills Creek, Richland County’s largest urban watershed.The Gills Creek watershed runs 76 square miles through the heart of Richland County and empties into the Congaree River. Over the past several years the watershed has experienced pollution problems due to growth and development. The area has also suffered a loss of trees, shrubs and other growth along the creek’s banks, vegetation that normally serves to naturally filter water.
Pollution, runoff and silting contribute to flooding and affect property values. Residents are encouraged to attend this meeting to learn more.Free parking at Harden and Lady Street available.For more information call 799-5020 or 576-2065.
