Flooding from the drainage creek that runs along Patterson (by Catalent). My home on Allen is 4 houses down from the creek. I've lived here since Aug 2013, and this has only been an issue since 2018/19. It's flooded to this extent 5 times in the last 3 years, never once in the 5 years prior. This timeframe roughly correlates with when infrastructure construction happened for Switchyard Park which is just a couple blocks away. When I've reported previously, I've simply been told "no blockage found." So I'm hoping for more feedback this time. I think the city needs to look into flooding mitigation in our neighborhood.

Serious flash flooding in our neighborhood last night. At least 7 residential lots were affected on W Allen (6 north side of the street, 1 south side) directly west of the drainage creek that runs alongside Patterson. This has been an issue for several years, but is happening with increased frequency and severity. I've owned my house since 2012 and experienced 1 instance through 2019. Since then we've had floods covering much of my front yard at least twice a year. Last night was the 3rd instance this year and the worst I've seen. Water level reached my knees while on the sidewalk. Earlier this year, one neighbor's car was totaled due to flooding. Another had water rise up above floor level in their house a couple years ago. Previous attempts to clear brush, debris, and small blockages in the creek have had no impact. Rain garden bump outs were installed on Allen. They seem to have no impact as they run east up Allen whereas the source of flooding is the creek to the west. Utilities staff working on our block in the past have suggested culverts were too small to handle water flow. Reading the 2022 stormwater master plan, I wonder if installing a detention pond nearby might help. Instead of attaching photos, here's a video link taken at the peak of flooding last night: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/q84v292p5nk4e2a6dnqo4/Video-Jun-29-2025-9-46-38-PM.mov?rlkey=aouaax4cfgu6nnr8pvieuterj&st=o88w184x&dl=0

Hello, This is a follow-up report in reference to report #183277 which I made a few days ago, about the beeping sound coming from the Catalent/Allen & Patterson area. Thanks so much for your quick reply to me last time. I wanted to give you some more info I've found out since: someone raised the possibility to me that it might be a malfunctioning sewer lift station pump, but I called the utility dept. and they came to check it out and said there wasn't one nearby, so that possibility is out. Lots of people (who haven't heard it themselves but have heard me describe that it's a beeping sound) have said it's probably just trucks backing up from Catalent/the construction site, but I really don't think that's the case: for one thing, it's one constant and ceaseless beep that only began in the last couple weeks, not intermittent or overlapping beeps like you'd hear if it was trucks. For another, I heard it all through last night during the tornado warning and very high winds--I can't imagine anyone was messing with trucks during that time. It's been ceaseless for the last 24 hours or more--I really think it must be something automated. It also sounds more north than Catalent itself--I'm thinking the construction site might be the more likely culprit. Hope this info helps to track it down. Thanks again!
