A pricy pond

The city wants to build a holding pond for stormwater runoff on the field at 43rd St. E. and 19th Ave. S., a field the neighborhood uses for recreation.

Something worth knowing:
The cost of maintaining a pond each year: $18,344, according to the city's 2008 stormwater management program report.

That's per pond, per year.

The city has 16 ponds already.
