Points of interest include bridges, dams, gaging stations, county lines, hydrologic unit boundaries, and major tributaries. Drainage areas are presented for selected sites, including total drainage area for any streams draining at least 100 square miles. INTRODUCTION Expansion of water-resource investigations within the State of Illinois has amplified the need for a common index to locations on streams.

  • Moline Bikeways Plan
    MOLINE BIKEWAYS PLAN REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE MOLINE ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION TEAM (MATT) Mayor Don Welvaert Jeff Anderson Laura Duran John Knaack Donnie Miller Mike Crotty Rod Hawk Dean Mathias Dan Osterman Doug DeLille Scott Hinton Dan McNeil Kevin Schoonmaker March 2011 REPORT SUMMARY In June of 2010, Moline Mayor Don Welvaert appointed the Moline Alternative Transportation Team (MATT). This city and citizen group was charged with making recommendations related to improving bicycling and walking in the community. One of the first efforts identified by MATT was development of the Moline Bikeways Plan. This plan is intended to provide a blueprint for developing a system of connected bicycle routes throughout the city and adjoining cities to encourage bicycling as a means of enhancing the community quality of life, supporting development efforts, promoting healthful activity, and reducing the city’s carbon footprint. The Moline Alternative Transportation Team recommends the following: That Moline’s Bikeways Plan compliments and enhances Moline’s Comprehensive Plan; and That the Quad Cities Area “Complete Streets” Policy shall be the guiding philosophy of the bikeways plan; and That the bikeways system identified will ultimately place each and every resident and business within a half-mile of a bikeway; and That as the location of the Quad City International Airport, and the proposed passenger rail station Moline should provide bicycle access and amenities to these facilities for all QC residents and visitors; and That the city pursue Bicycle Friendly Community, Business, and University designations as awarded by the League of American Bicyclists; and That Moline’s Bikeways Plan shall be submitted for inclusion in 2040 Quad Cities Area Long Range Transportation Plan.

  • A Brief History of the Davenport Levee Improvement Commission Davenport, Iowa (1952)
    A Brief History of the Davenport Levee Improvement Commission Davenport, Iowa (1952) The ordinance creating the Davenport Levee Improvement Commission was originally adopted on May 17, 1911. The first Commission was appointed in June 1911 by Mayor A.C. Mueller, who, by ordinance, was the Chairman of the Commission. The first members of the Commission were: W.D. Petersen, merchant and philanthropist, W.H. Kimball, consulting engineer, R.J. Clausen, architect, and A.M. Compton, City Engineer. Later, members of the Commission have all been responsible businessmen who serve without pay. They have been appointed on a staggered basis which has resulted in a smooth working organization which has always had members experienced in the work of the Commission in its roster. At one of the early meetings of the Commission, the following statement, made by Mr. W.H. Kimball, typifies the feeling of responsibility and the vision which existed in the Commission’s membership from the very beginning and which has guided all of the actions of the members ever since. “The first Levee Improvement Commission has a great responsibility. We are, so to speak, pioneers in this new civic undertaking, and the path which we will blaze must be such that all future Commissions can carry the work of developing Davenport’s riverfront to a successful conclusion. I suggest that we develop a comprehensive plan for our ultimate riverfront improvements so that this work can be carried on by this and all future Commissions in an efficient and economical way with the ultimate goal of an economically useful and a beautiful riverfront.” An interesting commentary on the work of the Commission is found in the fact that Major General Lansing H.
