Storm Water Management - Stream Naturalization
#20
Never mind steep sides, there are buildings that are between 0 and 20 meters from the current edge of the creek.

The proposed design would need 20-40 meters of extra space. The unstated fact about the proposal is that it includes demolition of 3-4 homes and a medium sized industrial building.

That's a 4-8 million dollar cost in property acquisition ALONE, never mind the court costs and social costs of using eminent domain to acquire the properties. And that's before you've even started to build anything.
