The Lower Big Creek Greenway Redevelopment and Restoration Plan includes a number of recommendations for environmental remediation and land reuse.

  • Construct trail connectors through the Lower Big Creek Valley.

  • Establish a riparian zone and enhanced floodplain to allow for storage of storm water in specific locations along the Lower Big Creek.
    • Maintain a minimum buffer area along the Creek, where appropriate.
    • Encourage/require businesses to relocate fences, paving, and outdoor storage areas to be outside the riparian zone.
  • Relocate selected industrial uses from environmentally sensitive land areas in the Valley.
  • Establish a camping facility on the north side of the Lower Big Creek, north of the CSX tracks, west of Jennings Road.
