The namesake creek is just that... crooked. It crosses Michigan Rd. Kessler Blvd and several other areas and is surrounded by abundant wildlife. Protection of these riparian corridors is critical as development continue to reduce natural buffers along its bank.

Why are we talking about 5 G
Cellular companies are dropping poles and towers randomly in neighborhoods with no input from neighbors. In telecommunications, 5G is the fifth generation technology standard for cellular networks, which cellular phone companies began deploying worldwide in 2019, the planned successor to the 4G networks which provide connectivity to most current cellphones.
