Descrição

The owner at 408 Tabor has added fill and gravel in front of their house in the City of Houston right of way and raised the level of the ground. This will cause more rain water to flow from the 400 block of Tabor, North to the 500 block of Tabor. Houses in the 500 block of Tabor flooded on Memorial Day 2015 and during Harvey. The filling of ditches in the 400 block of Tabor will make flooding worse in the 500 block. I previously reported on 311 that a tractor added dirt and filled the ditch that was in front of 408 Tabor in October 2016. The previous 311 service request ID was 156776.

I am a member of Stephen Costello's COH drainage task force. One of the recommendations of the task force was to "Fully enforce all applicable rules to re-establish drainage in the public right of way".

Please address this issue, as I am concerned that more home owners in the 400 block of Tabor may fill in their ditches as well and make flooding in the 500 block of Tabor even worse. Our house at 506 Tabor flooded on Memorial Day 2015 and during Harvey.
