Greetings,

I think that Reedsburg ought to turn Babes Creek into a reservoir. For instance if they put up a flood wall around the movie theator that would be one side. Then they could put up a wall on the other side as well.

Why should people invest downtown when there is a chance that it could flood again? To setup shop downtown is quite an expense. People might have ten thousand dollars in inventory alone. Are they going to want to risk that to flood damage?

Also a reservoir would also give the city a supply of water incase of draught. It would be another supply of water incase of emmergencies. It could also be used to irrigate fields for instance.
