A fair bit of water is still standing in the intersection this morning (photo: [link]), with fallen leaves blocking the curb grates.
In July I sent photos documenting the flooding to the County Water Resources office, which led to a field inspection. They concluded that the Allen Creek Drain itself was not at fault, rather that the city’s street drains were inadequate for the runoff at that spot.
Oh, one clarification to your report on the FEMA/Kingsley project: There are two addresses, but only one “structure”–the house at #519. It once had a garage behind it; but after a fire, this was torn down and removed.
