Hello,
The Eden Storm System is not connected to the outfall off Townsend Ave. Can you please provide some more details as to what happened? Such as date, time of day, heavy rain? Photos are also helpful. Eden St. is naturally a very low lying area. As a result, drainage is very challenging, especially when the creek is high.

I posted a pic on cick/ fix. I took it on Saturday night, at high tide.
I've been here for 40 years, we get water up from the concord st drain and if it's raining at the time, our basements flood.
From what we were told, the tide gate was replace about 15 years ago, it sometimes gets debris stuck and it doesn't close, allowing water to pass by.
We are very low here and drainage is challenging , we just don't need the sea water making things worse
