Re-Imagine Our Creeks In Discussion Tonight
Advocacy groups hold meeting to consider design plans for the area's creeks tonight (Monday) at downtown Walnut Creek library.
Visions for Central Contra Costa's creeks will flow in "Re-imagining our creeks in our cities & neighborhoods" at 7 p.m. tonight (Monday) in the Oak View Room on the second floor of the downtown Walnut Creek Library, 1644 North Broadway.
The workshop is sponsored by the Walnut Creek Watershed Council, Friends of the Creeks and the Contra Costa Resource Conservation District.
UC Berkeley grad students in landscape design and urban planning will discuss their study of the riparian corridor of Walnut Creek and adjacent communities. The flier (attached) communicates the vision: "Imagine your city or neighborhood with expanded access to the leafy, dappled shade of a natural looking creek, but with all the flood protection we have today. Imagine pathways and bike trails following the creek to flourishing retail businesses, where customers dine, sip coffee, or chat, enjoying the soothing riparian environment."
