Tons of trash

New Albany stormwater crews removed between 12 and 15 tons of debris from Falling Run Creek in a project that wrapped up Monday. Heavy rain events have frequestly led to flooding around the Graybrook Lane neighborhood, as the road is habitually closed due to floodwater that runs across the route near New Albany Springs Golf Course. The city was able to save equipment costs for the work thanks to donations by two New Albany businesses; Padgett Inc. donated a crane and B L Curry & Sons Inc. provided machinery and help with burning some of the debris removed from the creek.
