The stormwater drain in front of 5200 Devonshire Road residence is clogged. Causing or contributing to blockages to the surrounding stormwater drains. Resulting in the street flooding, causing blockages to neighboring stormwater drains, debris buildup and rodent problems. I have reported this problem numerous times over a 13 year period. When the City does respond, the stormwater drain is cleared for a period of time, never permanently. The stormwater ultimately resumes to being completely clogged. Given the City has now imposes the Stormwater utility fee to its citizens, to pay for such problems, the expectation is that the city will do what its citizens are paying additionally for. Per the City of Richmond’s public utility web site:
What does the stormwater utility fee pay for?
“The fee provides funding to implement new programs for preventive maintenance, repair, and improvements to the city's storm drain system. With these programs, entire storm drain systems in large areas of the city are cleaned on a periodic basis before serious problems occur. Funding from the Stormwater Utility allows for improvements that directly target local flooding problem”. Please fix this problem properly and permanently, thank you!!
