Description
HI there, the ditch in front of our house that is supposed to drain the water from the street does not work properly. When it rains, the water backs up into our driveway and I'm afraid it's going to give us some issues with flooding down the line. There is no return on the upper part of the drain (on the northeast corner of the property) but there is a return on the lower part (on the northwest corner) but the water simply stays on the street, or backs up into our driveway. I'm hoping someone would be able to put a pipe in that works, and fill in the ditch.

Surface Water Rep made site visit to assess and it appears there is an issue with water making it into the ditch. Grass vegetation has built up along the ditch which diverts water down the street and partially into a driveway at 1315. Work order for mechanical ditch reshape and and level shoulder to allow water into ditch. Pipes look clear underneath driveways and to downstream catch basin.
