The fields (formerly the golf course) drain to this area. The City has worked with developers and one of the biggest issues that always come up was regarding the drainage. There is no easy solution to this. This is not only a City issue but also a County/Township issue. All three will need to work together to come up to a solution. Leonard Barnard explained that the homeowner has a problem and he is not sure what the solution would be, but admits there is definitely a problem.
