Park repairs loom after Ike storm topples bluff and archeology

Chambers County Commissioner Bill Wallace describes a multiagency effort led by the Army Corps of Engineers and Texas General Land Office to restore the park damaged by Hurricane Ike. The bluff eroded about 20 feet, closures followed, and a 1955 pottery find spurred an archeological dig. Project cost is expected near 1.5 million dollars with plans to shore the bluff, add concrete stairs, cap the bulkhead, and save select trees. Wallace reflects on long local ties to McCollum Park.
