The Peppy link is pretty close in content, but the story from yesterday in the AJC.com just threw new quotes into an older story.
There's a whole lot more FEMA stuff in all the coverage today, maybe in response to Byrd's comments yesterday: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080617/...sa_flooding_dc |
All good - thanks for the link (you too, Peppy).
That's interesting, and seems pretty smart - there's nothing like that in my area, so I hadn't even heard about it, but clearing out low-lying areas for park land is a pretty standard city planning move, there's really no reason not to do it in flood plain areas, I'd guess.
