It may seem OK to lower (the elevation) to below the current level proposed, but I am not be sure it would be of service to future residents just to lower the cost impact now.

We would like to release this information to the developer community, because they invested the money into this, and we certainly do not want future homeowners in Maple Park to be below the flood plain.

When we plugged in (the data) from that rainfall from the 1996 flood, we achieved an elevation in excess of what actually happened in '96.

As you know, Maple Park has a flood plain around it, but it was an approximate zone. We thought it would be helpful to research and develop and do an in-depth study.

Three years felt like six around here. I've set up a blueprint, and gotten Freddie Mac back to regular quarterly reporting. Now it's up to other people to carry it out.

I don't eat fast food often, but I love tacos. I could write prophetically about how perfect the taco is.
