The site was investigated and will continue to be monitored during rain events to see how the storm system is performing.
Other: During hard rains, water backs up in the southeast corner of my yard and comes into my garage and basement from the parking pad on the east and below grade through the wall to the north. The sidewalk running along the Clifton St. right of way is the east boundary of my property (see photo). Water simply can't move fast enough to the culvert you installed south of my property on the west side of the sidewalk. Is there anything you can do to alleviate this problem? I'm happy to discuss the details. Thank you.

Michael, I visited your property earlier this week and am also trying to find a solution that will help a neighbor of yours downstream. I'd like to install a swale through the City Right of Way along your south property line to direct the water off of Anita and over to the drainage along the sidewalk. As you mentioned, the area along the sidewalk can not handle much stormwater flow. Are those landscaping improvements yours? We will need to ditch down the west side of the sidewalk.
Per Justin White, this needed to be given to Phil in engineering.
