Fairmont Parkway <br />La Porte, TX 77571 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Joems: <br /> <br />We have a severe flooding problem in Fairmont East subdivision. ~ee in <br />the last 7 months we have had flood waters enter gaEages, and we have lost at least <br />5 cars to flooding that were parked on our street during rains. The flooding has <br />only worsened as out subdivision and adjoining subdivisions filled in with homes. <br />It is not a matter of if but only when flood waters will enter our homes. We <br />cannot tolerate the continuing fl~oding, and we appeal to your assistance in <br />eliminating this problem. <br /> <br />On numerous occasions City Public Works has inspected our storm sewers <br />and found no blockages. City Engineer Rodney Slayton inspected our street on <br />July 11,2007, and stated that the flooding problems are probably caused by poor <br />structural design that should never have been approved by the City of La Porte. <br /> <br />We request that a surveying crew investigate the causes of our flooding. <br />Also, we expect a definite action plan from the City of La Porte to redress our <br />flooding problem. Finally, we ask that the city action plan be implemented in a <br />timely fashion. <br /> <br />We anxiously await your reply. Thank you. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />~...-.- <br />=-~ <br />
