Back on the sandbar, we had either local organizations donate time each month to cleaning up their stretch of land (even got a named marker for the effort) or inmates...wasn't perfect, but it WAS.

Water is an issue. Use much reclaimed water for irrigation, where-ever able.
Otherwise, send a firetruck around to water everything...(half joking.)

What brouhaha?

I like the way the Parkway is made: the limited access part in the middle and service roads on each side. When I first saw this I was amazed. It was quite confusing too.

The Parkway is an engineering disaster and University Drive is a complete assault on the eyes with billboard upon marquee upon sign upon... University has deteriorated seriously over the last 10-15 years. Again, I'm a rare born and raised Huntsville native of nearly 40 years of age and I would gladly pay an extra 1 cent sales tax to help create better roads in this town.
