The following recommendation of the Public Health & Welfare Board was read:
"The Honorable Mayor and Members
of the Common Council
Rochester, Minnesota
Gentlemen:
The Board of Public Health and Welfare has been asked for an
opinion as to whether considerations of public health make it
necessary or advisable to remove obstructions in the form of
sediment and growths from Cascade Creek.
The considered opinion of the Board is expressed as follows:
1. Cascade Creek under present conditions does not constitute
a hazard to public health.
2. If flooding.occurs to an extent that basements are flooded,
sewers backed up and premises are covered with polluted waters, a
health hazard would exist.
3. The above hazard is not peculiar to Cascade Creek, but also
is true of Bear Creek and Zumbro River.
4. It is doubtful that flood control practices would be
sufficient to prevent flooding from a truly damaging sort of
flood that may occur on Cascade Creek.
5. The lesser problem of mosquito breeding is not restricted to
Cascade Creek, but is a city-wide problem that could be solved with
a mosquito control program.
6. Backing up of sewage into basements occurs to some extent
In all parts of the city. In the last seven years only three out
of one hundred and four of the recorded complaints of sewage back-up
for the entire city have occureed during or following days of heavy
rains (over 0.75 inches per 24 hours).
7. If the removal of silt deposits and willow growths from one
stretch of the creek would materially decrease the.extent of flooding

or would be a.critical factor as to whether flooding would occur,
this action would be considered desirable from the Public health
viewpoint. This would alleviate only one part of the flooding
problem, however, and that for a temporary period. It is doubtful
whether this work on one section of the stream would accomplish the
desired" results unless incorporated in a flood control plan for
the stream as a whole.
Yours very truly,
R. J. Jackman, M. D. , President
Board of Public Health and Welfare"
