Willowick residents be alert! Spring is near and so the possibility of flooding! Our homes have flooded more in the past 6 years then the people who live next to the river! What do we do? New street and sewers? Been there done that -with no help. Since the new street was put in the homes have flooded twice. Before the road never had a drop of water in the basement .Thanks for your help City! NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Ive been a Willowick homeowner for 20 yrs. and never had a flood problem in my basement. The past several years, my basement floods. I still think it has something to do with the new construction across from Shoregate. They removed the ravine, and I believe the pipes they installed can not compensate for the excess water. Of course, the city denies that. Its all about those $$$ houses being built, we the medium income homeowners were the sacraficial lambs.

I sent in my city issued survey weeks ago and still have not heard from them on my survey. They came out and scoped my laterals from my Tees to the mainline and found nothing. What a shocker once again since the sewers were just put in FIVE years ago! Still waiting on the DVD that the city said they would give to the residents when they were done with the scope process. It sure seems that the only time this issue gets any attention is when some unlucky resident gets water or worse yet crap in there basement.
City officals just because our basements dont have water in them doesnt mean there isnt still a major problem.TRUST ME IT WILL RAIN AGAIN!
I did want to say thank you to the city for putting in the new sewers on E300. Since they have completed the work I have had the chance to remodel my basement 3 times and have lost my water backup rider on my insurance.Prior to the new road I NEVER had a drop of water in my basement. Now when it floods i get to pay for ALL of the expenses out of pocket and we all know how much extra cash we have sitting around during these tough economical times. Not to mention there isnt a chance in hell that anyone will ever buy my home or even want to rent it from me when they find out that after a small amount of rain falls you may end up with a swimmimg pool in your basement, dont mind the floaters -they are just what comes out of the mouths of certain people in the city. So I ask the city again- What is going on with the sewers on E300? What is being done?
