How about the fixing of old problems. Many culverts running under roads do not have the proper dischasrge points. Many empty out into people yards. Thus is what is called directed flooding? VDOT is directing water at my yard, that is illegal, isn't it? To use a ditch or channel to direct run off water at a neighbor isn't legal as far as I have read. One isn't allowed by law to direct run off water at another, however VDOT does that to me. This water should be funneled into an existing 42 inch storm drain enstead. However, seems after 35 years still no plans have been made to correct this as far as I have owned the property and for how many years proir to that iis anyone's guess.
So fix the old as you fix the new, that is my response.
