Long time since last post...

I have been very busy with work, home projects and coaching ball. I will make a better attempt to keep inormation flowing.

We had severe flooding issues in Northwood. Some had storm water some had sanitary water. I have been dealing with water issues since 1998. I moved into my house in 1996. I have made phone calls to wood county and have spoke with our city administrator and toured problem areas with the Street Superintendent. This will be on the agenda for July 24th service committee. I think this meeting is at 7pm. Check the citys web site to make sure. I'm no expert but I think we need retention ponds and larger retention ponds. Some of these ditches and creeks start well south of Northwood. The more they build south of us the more water that has to pass through. Maybe, when some of these neighborhoods were built they could take a rainfall of 4". With new homes, buildings and apartments it may be down to 2"

Some residents behind Brentwood Park had issues with water in your back yards and close to your house. This will be discussed also. They are working on options and hopefully we can get you an update soon.
