The MUD is partnering with Woodlake to clean and restore the creek corridor behind Grove Drive and Sterling Court (see highlighted area on the map).

Construction is scheduled to begin tomorrow, Thursday, January 15.

Planned improvements include:

• Removing cattails and overgrown vegetation
• Clearing and cleaning the creek channel
• Regrading and stabilizing creek banks
• Removing select trees that are obstructing water flow
• Clearing beaver dams along the tributary

This work will help improve drainage, reduce blockages, repair erosion, and restore proper water flow through the creek. After this initial phase is complete, the area will be evaluated for sod replacement. Additional tree replacements and new plantings are also planned as part of the third phase of our tree replacement program.

This project is part of the MUD’s ongoing commitment to maintaining and improving Light Farms’ green spaces. Over the past 12 months, we have invested in:

• Restoring the seven lakes along Bridgewater Drive
• Improving the greenbelt and lakes between Eastland and Cypress
• Restoring the tributary behind Maydelle
• Sod repairs between Grange and Indigo
• Numerous other landscape and drainage improvements

In addition, more than 375 dead trees have been replaced, and significant upgrades have been made to the community’s irrigation and well systems.

We appreciate the community’s patience during this work and look forward to the long-term improvements it will bring to these natural areas.
