An eroding streambank is depositing high volumes of sediment into the Huron River from a tributary. Officials propose to regrade, stabilize and naturalize the creek to alleviate flooding of the golf course, eliminate bank erosion and reduce the amount of phosphorus depositing into the Huron River.

Project managers are also considering constructing wetlands on the golf course, which could help remove pollutants, reduce runoff and alleviate peak flow rates. Wetlands also have benefits for local wildlife.

The Ann Arbor Senior Center is at 1320 Baldwin Ave.
