Flooding an ongoing problem for local golf courses
When Sycamore Community Park had standing water up to the seats of its benches last week, the park’s superintendent of golf operations, Kirk Lundbeck, wasn’t concerned.
The park and its golf course, which sit on a flood plain at 940 E. State St. in Sycamore, have a history of flooding after steady rainfalls and heavy snow accumulation.
Although last week’s flooding appeared to be monumental, the situation was actually routine, he said.
