Detention Basin Declared Dead

City engineers gave Park Friends a death certificate last night for the proposed Overton Park detention basin.

The certificate, which reads “The land of Overton County of Greensward cometh the coronor certifying that the detention basin alternative near Rainbow Lake is not merely dead; it is sincerely dead,” is signed by Deadus O. Arrivalus.

“For me, I think we saved the greensward and we saved the forest,” says Martha Kelly with Park Friends.
