Ms. Watson,
Thanks for getting back in touch with me on this. I realize it’s a priority for you, and I have not forgetting.
WO#4280 was created on 11/16/18, but due to a persistent backlog of over 50 work orders the promise date for this ditch cleaning kept getting deferred. Therefore, on 12/11/18 I asked our Utility Lead to inspected the ditch to see what we felt the risk of this deferring would be. Based on his knowledge of open ditch storm systems he felt the outfall would flowing well this winter and the cleaning should not be prioritized over other priorities. I now have the ditch cleaning scheduled for January. I’m sending our crew back out to take a quick look, but unless there is active flooding the crew will be focusing on where flooding is actually occurring in town, and the ditch on Lynn Lane will be cleaned in January.
Respectfully,

Good Morning Andy and Gerald,
I am writing again asking that the ditch please be cleared of all the debris so that the rain can drain. With this rain, it WILL cause flooding on this street and cause unnecessary expenses to these families who live on the lower slope of the road.
Andy, thank you for the work order number of #428, would you please follow up and let me know when this will be scheduled.

Hi Nicole thanks for the email. I have a work order in the hopper now to take a look. I’m not sure how it was missed the first time you called! If you have further questions in the coming weeks you can reference Work Order #4284 next time you speak with someone at City Hall. We’ll try to get out by the end of November. Looks like I’m getting lucky with the dry weather this year!

Good Afternoon Andy,
I am sorry to keep asking about when the ditch will be mowed on our street. After 19 years of living here I have seen what happens when it is not cleared of the vegetation and it leads to flooding.
I called the office the week of October 22nd and the office gal kindly told me that it was on the schedule for October 31st.
As of today, it has still not been mowed. We really do not want to spray it with any roundup or such since it is not what we want in our water either.
Can you please let me know when it will be rescheduled.
Thank you for understanding,
Nicole Watson
