The Environmental Projection Agency, Fish and Wildlife, Champaign County Engineering Office and Champaign County Commissioners should get a load of what Mr. Kenneth Wooten has been up to in Champaign county. This is a prefect example of urban sprawl, unsustainable development practice and the environmental destruction that often occurs on the fringes of rural areas in America.
- Redirection of water onto adjacent land
- Disruption of public infrastructure
- Disruption of public amenity
- Public endangerment (due to flooding, icing, other conditions)
- Intentional damage to nearby natural wetlands
The high water sign and flamingo kindly placed in the lake that formed at the front of the new dwelling exemplify the failure of planning and development policies and lack of enforcement in Champaign County. Extensive flooding occurred actively flowing directly over South Dugan Road and more significantly along South Dugan to ShortCut Road where water stood at 1.5 to 2 ft deep on adjacent properties causing a small structure to be partially submerged and nearly flooding a three-way intersection.
