Description
Again Quaker Meetinghouse Road is draining into my front yard before the water reaches the catch basin grate about 5 ft to the south on the north side of the road. The berm is not directing runoff away from the verge, it is using the side of my driveway to drain onto my yard.
Please don't tell me this is related to the condition of my driveway - my driveway asphalt is damaged by the runoff, not creating the flood.
Floods started after the last full paving on the roadway - when the sidewalk went in across the road.

Thank you for the additional information. As we discussed on site, DPW has a work order in place to clean the structures adjacent to your property, and will be installing a berm as we discussed to help direct the water to the drainage structures. Once this work is complete, we will continue to monitor the system and make improvements as necessary.
Thank you for your patience.

3 ft of water in my basement from my entire front yard holding road runoff.
I have been waiting over 10 years for this to be resolved - What is the plan?
