Section 4: General Subject: Wood Duck Park Disappears Msg# 912198

Joe,
I don't doubt that there are plated easements to enter wood duck park as you and others have indicated. The point I alluded to was that the plated easements had to be squeezed into lots where they were not originally intended and on a small scale maps like the one I referred to can not be shown. The so called "park" in my opinion is much more intimate to the adjacent lots than is the case with lots adjacent the other parks in OP and as indicated was not intended to be a park but a canal. The problem is that anyone using the "park" are going to be in rather close proximity to the surrounding lots especially at the near end. So to the alleviate the problem OP staff have chosen to ignore the obvious sign removal hoping to minimize or eliminate the complaints from the surrounding properties when those intending to used the "park" block driveways, congest streets and get to close. So Joe in your great wisdom, what is the solution? Frank |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: In the prior 77 responses no body mentioned the root cause of the problem. I have a ten year old OPA map, the so called park is clearly shown but there is no access of any type shown as with the other parks in OP nor is there an obvious possible location for one. If you look at the actual subdivision plats recorded with the County you will see the five easements for access to Wood Duck Park. All this has been discussed here in the past. Those plats can also be viewed at OPA Public Works. I assume EPA would never allow the canal to be completed so maybe some of my sillier suggestions might actually be the solution. EPA was established on December 2, 1970. I'm not sure about the EPA's direct involvement in dredging in the Ocean Pines subdivision. This was under the Corps of Engineers, but maybe there was EPA involvement as well. Some research would be required. Also, I don't think Steen had anything to do with dredging operations. Boise was up against a deadline to end dredging. They were working in Manklin Creek when the deadline came and had to stop before completing what they had originally intended to do. As a result, Boston Drive, for example, never was bullheaded. Anyway, absolutely none of this has anything to do with the status of Wood Duck Park. |
