Petition to the Oshkosh Common Council
From the Residents of Anchorage Court and Bavarian Court
Re: The Proposed Anchorage Basin Storm Water Improvement Project
The Property Owners who live along the channel between Anchorage Ct. and Bavarian
Ct. request that the City of Oshkosh provide relief and protection to it's residents from
damage caused by the deposit of pollution, sediment and trash flowing downstream into
the channel from the upstream drainage basin. In addition we request that the City
remove pollution and sedimentation that has been and continues to be deposited into the
channel from the upstream City drainage area. The Property Owners also request that
the City create a maintenance plan for the channel so that a reasonable depth is
maintained for boating access for adjacent property owners. We request that this work be
included in the Proposed Anchorage Basin Storm Water Improvements Project.
The channel was constructed about 40 years ago with the adjacent subdivision
development to provide boating access to Lake Wmnebago. Property Owners along the
channel paid to construct and maintain seawall and other bank protection that prevents
significant erosion into the channel from adjacent properties. However, the channel
receives pollution, sediment, lawn clippings and yard waste and trash from the upstream
city streets and development. Polluted runoff from upstream gradually filled in the
improved channel and in the late 1970's the adjacent residents paid to have the channel
dredged. Since that time the channel has again gradually filled with sediment and is now
too shallow for reasonable use for boating access to all properties. An estimate of cost of
over $100,000 was recently obtained to restore the channel depth.
The City of Oshkosh has proposed to build flood relief improvements in the Anchorage
Storm Water Drainage Basin that flows through the above channel and into Lake
Wmnebago. This project will result in changes to the storm water flow through the
channel. We understand the need for protection of property from damage due to storm
water runoff but we request that the project also includes protection for downstream
property owners adjacent to the channel.
The State of Wisconsin has adopted laws that require the City of Oshkosh to remove,
storm water pollution from runoff We request that the City construct pollution control
devices and implement maintenance, practices as part of it's proposed flood control
project to prevent the deposit of sediment and pollutants into the Anchorage Ct. and
Bavarian Ct. channel.
The Property Owners that have signed this petition contribute to the storm water utility
and City property taxes based on channel frontage. We request CitY of Oshkosh
cooperation, assistance and relief from the ongoing deposit of sediment and pollution
from the storm water runoff from the upstream drainage basin into the channel.
