Most Willowbrook Volunteer firefighters and many others in the community called together tonight to sand bag and help protect more than 18 homes in the “bowl.”
The bowl is the lowest elevations next to Kearne’s Creek which because of early runoff is starting to flood roads and homes.
Pat Lantz – Fire Chief said his volunteers did a great job tonight and thanked all community volunteers for their efforts
More sand is needed and expected soon.
Some input stating that two good things happened today and both not confirmed
1. The dam that was expected to break did not and a controlled flow has been engineered
2. Permission may have been granted to dig on the parkland near Cooke’s to allow the runoff water to flow etter
