Friday night's rain event caused a back up of the stormwater system in our community. I believe the lake that our system outfalls into was not properly draining into the subordinate systems as designed. I believe that the county structure with the facility ID of CT_112016_026403 may be impacted by vegetation or storm debris. Can you please check the outfall and the subordinate ditches/pipes for proper operation?

Ongoing Flooding effects approximately 10 homes and properties including 4 streets. the spring fed lake adjacent to my property backs up due to the amount of water the county is directing into it through 3 drainage canals. There is a culvert that leads out to Phillippe creek to the south but is inefficient to handle the volume. Last year I worked with county to have a broken back flow valve replace at the Phillippe creek end of the out flowing culvert, was told it was replaced in Dec. but not sure. During the heavy rainfall in AUG the lake rose 5'8" and flooded the entire area. During Irma with less than 5" of rainfall the lake rose 6'4" flooding all properties and roadways over 2 blocks. County employees were out to take pictures on both occasions. This must be addressed with urgency, more development is underway to the west, east and north.The situation is already critical and bound to get worse with the failure to address how to get this issue resolved currently let alone how to plan for the additional runoff that this unchecked development will certainly cause.

Leewynn Dr under 3'+ of water, auto in floodwaters and my and just one of my neighbors property under water, normal edge of lake is another 30'+ to the right out of photo shot.

North & South Leewynn Drive are literally crumbling. The roadway striping and reflectors are almost completely gone in most places. This makes for dangerous driving conditions, particularly at night.

Hiller Helicopter flight, United Helicopters, Hiller flight LLC is operating a commercial helicopter painting booth that is home made and has no filtration system or certification. The home made paint booth is at the back of the main building on the North West side at the back of the hangar. There is no chemical waste disposal at this location. Helicopter are chemically stripped outside and the waste materials are dumped on the ground. There is a sink on the west side of the build where parts are chemically stripped and the waste water is dumped on the ground

There is a drainage ditch behind my house with a county easement. The ditch has not been maintained and no longer drains. This is causing standing water and a mosquito problem.

Dicth line needs to be cleaned for proper flow of storm water

The recent rains and road flooding has washed out the guardrail and culvert along a feeder to the Phillipi Main A.

Previous issue ID # SR427379 has not been resolved. Cleaning has happened in some downstream structures but no study or grade work has been completed to provide daylight to the drain pipe from Sylvan Lea drive West to the lake in Shadow Oaks. The storm pipe is still under water even with no rain for months. We had one rain event recently and the roadway still held water because the lake's outfall is too high and the pond's control elevation needs to be adjusted to allow more freeboard during storage events. Please let all the residents of Sylvan Lea what study has been done to verify that the lake's outfall is at the proposed control elevation. Rainy season is coming and the county has had months to manage this problem but the residents of the community believe it has been ignored due to lack of rain events. Provide an update to the residents of the repairs completed and assurance that our homes will not flood when it rains again. Life safety is impacted when the road is flooded and EMS can not reach the residents.
