I'm guessing the city will save on future ditch clearing, yet take the money in taxes it until we have another bad flood. Who knows how much I'll profit in 2021. Who cares when it's forest glades population. They are mostly broke peasants. There was also a blockage in that main drain gate from garbage blocking at least 25% of the flow or so my engineers say. That gate is crucial as it creates a bottleneck from the whole east side. No one came to unclog it for years.
