Borough Plans Darby Creek Clean Up Project
Darby Borough Council approved a plan to clean Darby Creek at several locations with four other measures. A Darby Creek Watershed Authority would be created with the Delaware County Planning Commission, plus a request to Rep Lawrence Williams to back the study. The plan calls for policing the creek, inviting municipalities to join, and a study by the Army Corps of Engineers aiming for completion this summer. The report would go to Congress for funds. Maps show 11 flood areas on Darby and Cobbs creeks and a proposed rerouting in some sections. Federal funds would cover most costs. the borough would pay for any land acquisitions along the creek.
