Haltom City Does Not Have Any Of The Magic Gateway Park Trinity River Vision Anti-Flood Trees

A few minutes ago I blogged about J.D. Granger's interesting assertion that he is planting 80,000 trees in Fort Worth's Gateway Park in order to slow down a Trinity River flood before it can do damage to Arlington.

A few minutes after that Anonymous Bob sent me a video excerpt from the "Up a Creek" movie documentary about the current bad water management of Tarrant County.

In that video Miss Layla Caraway mentions that during the flood in Haltom City, that almost obliterated her home, she saw 30 foot trees ripped out of the ground to go floating by her stricken abode.

While in Fort Worth, special flood resisting trees are being planted in Gateway Park that will not be ripped out of the ground during a flood, but will instead put up a massive 80,000 stick strong resistance to the forces of the Trinity River, slowing down that river when it is in raging mode, before it can do any damage in Arlington, due to Fort Worth's misguided Trinity River Vision Boondoggle.

The YouTube video below is a tiny part of the "Up the Creek" movie. I believe the entire movie documentary will be available for viewing soon...
