FROM: Ken Lancaster

As directed, an investigation was made at #555 East Anthony Street
N. W. to determine if we could be of assistance in the solution of

a flood problem,

We found that storm water from the streets does not flow into this
drain ditch, and, therefore, responsibility by this Department can-
“not be justified. However, there is a great volume of storm water
flowing into this ditch from City property belonging to the Parks
Department. I believe, it would relieve the problem of this ditch
overflowing onto this person's property if this water was intercepted
_and directed to Proctor Creek, This could be accomplished by
constructing a bunker at the top of the small ditch bank or by the
‘grading of a small berm ditch parallel to the existing one.
