Resident reports water outage at 80 Evelyn Road

Basket ball court in Perry park is not in good shape . Water stays for days after rain.

Hello, starting the week of October 7th, I noticed the water pressure in a few rooms in my home is noticeably lower than usual. Specifically, we have noticed a pressure drop in our kitchen faucet. Is there work being done at my home location that could be causing the issue? If not, can it be looked at to assess what may be causing the issue? My address is 349 Great Plain Ave. Needham. Thank you!

Leak

Low water pressure at residence. Possibly gate left partially open after water pipe replacement work on Carey Road. Irrigation system unable to operate due to low water pressure; system checked and is operating properly per vendor. No leaking pipes at residence interior; all water valves fully open inside home.

During heavy rain (most recent Friday Oct 21, 2016...4th time in last 3 years) storm water pools on Hazelton Ave. and eventually runs in one massive rush through the backyard of #31 Hazleton down to Beaufort backyard (including into a swimming pool which then overflows also).

All in a matter of seconds a giant pond and overflowed swimming pool is left in 3 Beaufort backyards. Homeowners are unable to address this amount of water through any barrier, yard regrading or sump system.

Storm water from Hazleton and those streets higher up (Arch, Highgate, etc) must be redirected to stay on the streets and not go into yards. Attached map shows flow of water.
