City Hall ignoring Scajaquada Creek eyesore
Despite two weeks of reporting on the badly polluted Scajaquada Creek, the administration of Mayor Byron Brown has yet to clean up the mess near Hoyt Lake, the spot where five ducks died this past Monday. Reporter Dan Telvock took this photo Saturday.
David Comerford, general manager of the Buffalo Sewer Authority, told Investigative Post last week that it is the responsibility of the Public Works Department to clean up this section of the creek, a hot spot for avian botulism. Apparently Public Works Commissioner Steve Stepniak didn’t get the memo.
