TISKILWA — The question of who is responsible for clearing creek beds in Tiskilwa was debated at Tuesday night's meeting of the Tiskilwa Village Board.

Rodger Bruyn of Tiskilwa, who heads up a committee of volunteers who have looked into what needs to be done with drainage of water in the three creeks found inside the village limits, said the group has found problems with brush and trees in the creeks. Plus, concrete retaining walls aren't properly supported, and creek beds need to be stabilized better.

Bruyn felt there were enough volunteers in town to cut back brush and small trees.
