Here we go again folks - the unkept Creek is over flowing its banks and over a Town approved buried sewer line. Check out these photo's:
Standing on the Stony Road bridge - looking south - notice debris building up.

The second picture is from the same spot looking north/west. Notice the water encroaching on the house - its past the lawn near the trees.

In this picture you can see the water is almost hitting the bridge - its usually about 3 or 4 feet lower.Its hard to see but - just about four feet from the waters edge is a manhole and a large green pipe sticking up. That area should be dry.

This isn't even the worst of it - drive down Genessee from the Fire Hall in Bowmansville - notice the creeks level. Then drive east up Genessee - when you look to the south - notice the flooded yards all the way up to Stony Road - turn right onto Stony - drive south to the main bridge - notice the flooding in yards as you pass.

Park - safely if you can - look at the creek covering the manholes for the new sewer lines. Now drive up to Pleasant view - turn right - about 200 ft you will see the Creek on your right and a small cement structure to your left - that structure house a pumping station.

Because of the Town approving homes in this area - sewage has to constantly be pumped out. They are actually pulling the sewage out of the sewers on Stony Road and now the new Cross Creeks subdivision on Pleasant view near Pavement - and eventually all the rest of the new homes the Town will approve east of Cross Roads.

But - thank God for FEMA - they came up with a solution - they charge about $1800-2000.00 dollars a year to home owners for flood insurance. Thats mainly because the Town always refused to do any flood control projects.
