I like your ideas.
My thoughts would be to dig a hole and build up a dam,leaving the center about water level. Then line the hole and extend the liner over the dam, down the back of the dam. Then use your "meandering stream" idea on top of liner starting at the dam and going down the back of the dam.
Idealy this would give you a hole of water and a spillway that wouldn't wash and be appealing.
Yea ... I think that's exactly my "plan" and glad to hear it's not "off base". Figure I follow the 3-1 rule on the front/back (and both lined), I should be good to hold back this smallish pond?
BTW, ignore my "rant" about property rights. I've read the actual language of the ordinance, and have the loophole to use in court (if I *ever* have too). It's just the other gov employess who don't understand the law that can make my life miserable (and why I don't wanna get them involved).
