  • 46 Beaufort Avenue Needham, Massachusetts, 02492 - Needham

    Water from Hazelton Ave again overflowed at 3:30am this morning into the Backyards of 36, 40 and 46 Beaufort Ave. In a matter of minutes the backyards were completely overwhelmed with water. Water entered finished basements.

    Homeowners had to use industrial grade surface pump exiting by fire size hose to remove water from back yard.

    This is the sixth occurrence of the overflow that has been reported to the town since 2011. Three of the six occurrences have happened in the last 5 months so the problem is increasing in its frequency.

    Photo shows the depth of water reached against 46 Beaufort’s foundation.

    The same overflow happened and damaged homes in 2011 during Hurricane Irene, 2013, 2016, and August 8, 2023 and Dec 18,2023.

  • 46 Brentwood Circle Needham, MA, 02492, USA - Needham

    We live in Needham on Brentwood Circle and our neighbor at 46 Brentwood Circle has broken drainage pipes that pool water in his yard and also direct to our property leading to pooled water in his and our backyard that is full of mosquitoes and bugs. We have elderly parents and young kids and are concerned about the mosquitos/bugs.

    Is there anything we can do to get them to address the situation/can the town assist? We have tried asking. Thanks!
