Flint Creek Greenway Plan

Abstract

This Flint Creek Greenway Plan represents the results of a "grass roots” multi-objective stream corridor management program prepared from an interested citizen’s perspective. The plan was prepared, in part, with the generous support of the Association of State Floodplain Managers Flood Hazard Fellowship Fund, 1992. Seeds for the Greenway Plan were planted through membership in the Citizens for Conservation and with participation on the Lake County Stormwater Management Commission’s Flint Creek Steering Committee. The Plan represents a preliminary working document as a forum for discussion about the merit and need for a greenway in the Barrington area. The Greenway Plan can be implemented only through the debate and cooperation of many interested property owners, governments, and citizens. Constructive comments can be forwarded to the author as a means to monitor consensus and support for the Flint Creek Greenway Plan.
