When we moved into our property, the road wasn't yet "approved". After much arguing and negotiation, we agreed to give a right of way to the developer for a Storm Water Management Pond. We'd already lived here 2 years and knew the land and what it would tolerate.
We came to an agreement for them to put in a bunch of native shrubs and trees. We've been very happy with the resulting wildlife growth :)
Great article and even when the bog area is very dry in the summer, it's still a plus for us - thanks for the great information!
Thanks Dea, it's really a rather complex subject. It's really amazing what can be done by planting Native plants by one of these types of projects. It appears to be a whole new way to help protect the watershed. It's just not very known as yet.
