Agoura Hills Plans To Clean Up Major Malibu Creek Embarrassment
Written by 991KBU on July 25, 2019
One of the major of pollution in Malibu Creek is a concrete storm channel over the hill … new the 101 Freeway at Kanan Road.
It’s a tributary called Medea Creek … a nasty concrete channel that goes under the freeway and along several shopping centers … a mat of algae in the bottom … a trash collector.
Madea Creek flows into Malibu Creek … and eventually the Malibu Lagoon and Surfrider Beach.
Agoura Hills officials have unveiled preliminary design process for a linear park along the concrete channel.
This park Will include a water treatment plant to take the urban run off in the channel … and use it to irrigate a new park.
The channel would be transformed into a natural and native recreation area … with wetlands to clean the water and paths for pedestrians … bikes and horses.
It would be the first park in Agoura Hills to be built south of the 101 Freeway.
his location is in an ideal area to serve a portion of Agoura Hills that currently has no park land south of the 101 Freeway.
Agoura Hills officials are having a meeting this afternoon to explain the project and as the public what they want to see.
The meeting is at 2 o’clock at the Plata Taqueria & Cantina … on Roadside Drive near the Wood ranch steakhouse.
You can buy your own chips and guacamole.
We have a link to information about the park posted at the KBUU website.
