Description

The creek in my back yard belongs to the city. It has a large debris blockage which is causing the water to back up and form a pond which is about to spill over the banks into the yard. We have tried to clear it ourselves, even though it belongs to the city. It is too large and tightly packed. Please come remove the blockage before the problem gets worse. FYI, you may not be able to get a heavy truck back there because of the rise in the water table caused by the blockage. So please come prepared to do it by hand. Thanks!
