It is proving to be a very wet spring with a recent round of storms dumping a lot of rain across the state. Fairfield was hit hard with a major flood. The problem was compounded by clogged storm drains. When the floodwaters have no place to go, they end up in peoples’ homes and that is exactly what happened.
Thelma McQueen, who owns a home in Fairfield, told a local news station about what happened with the clogged storm drains caused by the flood.
“It flooded the whole area. People couldn’t come up the street down the street. Drains were taking in what you could take in but the rest of the water was all over the drains images running down the backyards and into the house,” said McQueen. She said about 4 feet of water seeped in to the home. The resulting damage ruined furniture, upended appliances and resulted in her entire basement being gutted.
When these types of events occur, the city recourses are stretched thin. They might be able to work on the storm drains but when it comes to cleaning out flood damage from a home, it becomes the homeowner’s responsibility.
