Friends of San Ramon Creek Arundo Team Recognized By Candace Anderson

At the March 1st Board of Supervisors virtual meeting, the Supervisors unanimously signed a proclamation recognizing the Friends of San Ramon Creek, Walnut Creek Watershed Council, Contra Costa Fish and Wildlife Committee, and the volunteers.

Two of the hardworking volunteers, Mike Anciaux of Alamo and Dick Heron, a Danville resident, pictured here left to right with Supervisor Andersen, were instrumental in removing Arundo, an invasive non-native plant that consumes prodigious amounts of water, spreads aggressively, is a fire hazard, provides little in the way of habitat for animals, and can restrict creek flow.

Dick and Mike were able to stop by Supervisor Andersen's Danville office and accept the proclamation in person.
