Hello Mr. Webb and Mr. Dyer

My name is Jen Schiller and I live on Gentle Circle in Overlea. Last year there was construction done on the creek behind my house to allow for the water to flow faster (and hopefully eliminate the massive mosquito infestation we have in our neighborhood). Unfortunately the opposite has happened. Beavers have moved in, destroyed the trees surrounding our walking paths and have built three large dams causing massive flooding of the surrounding land. I am concerned now about how this flooding will impact our homes near the creek (which is now a lake). I have contacted MVF but have not seen any movement, so I am reaching out to both of you to see what can be done? I am including a picture so that you know what I’m talking about. I’m not sure who will be responsible for this if the flooding causes our basements to leak? This will also be an even greater issue for the mosquitos this year and hope that MVF will spray the area regularly. Last year you could not walk to your car without getting bit multiple times.

Thank you for your help.

Jen

Thanks Peter for the response. In the past when I’ve emailed the board I did not receive an email back- glad things are different now!

I took a few more pictures today to better illustrate the problem.

 Jennifer,

Thanks for the note and sorry to hear about this issue!  

I have cc’d Dave Humpton to this email who is the executive Vice President for the foundation and handles the day-to-day operations of the Foundation.  I believe he is out of the office the next couple days, but I will follow up with him and either he or I (or the best contact from the MVF staff) will follow up next week.

Thanks again for contacting me and I look forward to working this out,

Peter

Hi Jen I live on Sparrow Valley Court for over 20 years  I would like to speak with you. Your issue with the beavers has gone on in the village before.
I have been plagued with trash & rats. I have been very discussed with the response receive. These things are health issues to me.
Again I would like to speak to you.

Thanks
Virginia
