Silver Creek

Has anyone heard any updates on Silver Creek? Thanks, Bill

Since nobody has any updated information I’m assuming that its off limits legally and best to stay away so we don’t ruin our chances of maybe someday it opening up to the public.
Thanks, Bill

I havent heard anything new bill. I will keep my eyes open.

i will keep a ear open and see if i get any info

A story in PB today says that Haverhill township has approved opening of parking lot for public access to Silver Creek reservoir. The article indicates usage will be from dawn to dusk only.
Also something about no fishing April and November due to Pelicans and Swans.
The city might have a gravel parking lot for 30 cars open later this week.

12/02/2007 – ANGLERS MAY GET PARKING LOT FOR FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR

It appears fishing enthusiasts will have access to a flood control reservoir located in Haverhill Township this winter. The Rochester City Council will vote Monday on an agreement with the township that will allow for the construction of a temporary parking lot at the SR-2 reservoir, while the city applies for a conditional use permit for a permanent parking facility that could be constructed next year. The agreement requires the city to close the parking ramp in April and November to avoid disturbing swans and pelicans that use the man-made lake as a stop over during their migratory journeys each year. The reservoir is located to the northeast of Rochester along County Road 11. Officials note the agreement was worked out with help from County Commissioner Jim Bier, who chairs the South Zumbro Watershed Joint Powers Board.
