Description

Hello, My property sits below an area that has recently been stripped of all its trees and vegetation to make room for a new housing development.Unfortunately, the developers (Harmony) didn’t see to upgrading the strom drainage around the new homes they built and my property is suffering as a result. I do know that the new houses above me are experiencing flooding as well. I had asked Ho Co to install better drainage on Forest Ave which they did, however, I don’t think the drainage system extends to cover the entirety of the new developed street. The dead end portion of Forest Ave, which is directly behind my property, is ultimately washing my property away causing basement and garage flooding.
Also, part of my driveway is County land.
I’d very much like to install a ‘v’ type concrete gutter alongside the driveway to direct water to the nearsest drain to help divert water.
Please help alleviate the water running through these properties by installing significant drainage on Forest Ave.
This is the Harwood Park section in Elkridge.
Mind you, all of this run-off empties into a stream that is located below my property.
Thank you so much
