    Water leaking on road and freezing over night large amount of ice. Intersection of dest and Ann's farm road.
  • 94 Nutmeg Hill Rd Hamden, CT, 06514, USA - Hamden_Feature 001

    There is no drainage installed in the Cul Del Sac in Nutmeg Hill Road, so when it rains there's a large amount of water that pools right along the curb.

    It's causing a lot of weeds to grow in that are and a lot of the growth has gone under the paved street. If anyone can take a look, that would be appreciated.

  • 119 Filbert St Hamden, CT, 06517, USA - Spring Glen
    Water leaking up between the sidewalk and the curb.
  • 945 Gaylord Mountain Road Hamden, Connecticut - Hamden
    Rain water from Gaylord Mountain Road drains alongside our home due to road/curb damage. This is washing away dirt/grass resulting in property damage.
  • 112 Chatterton Way Hamden, CT - Hamden
    The owner of 112 Chatterton Way called to indicated there is a large area of ponding water in the pavement that runs into his yard. He is asking that the area be repaired to solve the ponding.
  • Fans Rock Rd & Leatherman Trl Town of Hamden, CT, 06518, USA - Hamden
    STILL a problem. Drain is in the WRONG place and has been forever. Requests were made to have it moved when both streets were paved. It wasn't. The ice floe has started and today, there was no sand or salt spread so anyone coming in does a slid and anyone going out has to "gun it" before the ice. PLEASE address this issue before an accident occurs.
  • 165 Building Brook Rd Hamden, CT - Hamden

    I'm writing to you in regards to an ongoing issue that has yet to be addressed by the town about Building Brook Road. I live at 165 Building Brook Road, on the dead end side and have been having street drainage issues since the re-paving of the street 4 years ago in September 2014.

    As you can see in the photos and videos attached, there are multiple issues that are leading to severe drainage problems. The pitch of the road, the lack of town regard for the drainage area on the opposite side of the road (cleaning of ditch, proper drainage pipes, clearing of season brush from town property), and the lack of acknowledgement of our suggestion to add a curb to the affected areas to block the immense water runoff from cascading down onto our property.

    I have previously submitted an email to the town back on February 9th, 2016 where I got a response stating:

    "Thank you for your email and I’m sorry to hear of your difficulties this morning. I will pass along your concerns/request to our Public Works Department and ask that they review the situation for possible remedies. With more snow in the forecast they may not be able to address it immediately but will get to it as quickly as they can. Thanks for your patience!"

    While the response was appreciated, no further action was taken on the town's part.

    On January 12, 2018, I submitted SeeClickFix ticket #4026079 to address the same drainage issue and suggested a small curb be placed along the road near the edge of our property to prevent the water from cascading down. It was, again, acknowledged, but no action was ever taken.

    Attached are images and video that have prompted me to write yet another email (and will be submitting another SeeClickFIx ticket). While I understand today's rainfall has been unprecedented, the amount of erosion and damage that has been caused to our property today (and since the repaving) is inexcusable. A solution needs to be determined, whether that is to re-pave the road to pitch it away from our property back into the drainage area, to re-dig the drainage ditch on a consistent basis to make it effective, or to install a curb in front of our property to prevent this from occurring again. With winter quickly approaching, this is sure to remain an issue. As proud town residents, we feel neglected and frustrated by the lack of concern or care on the town's part.

    My wife and I would like to come in next week to speak to someone about this ongoing issue. Please let us know who we need to contact to set up this meeting.

    Again, please see the Google Photo linked videos and photos below documenting today's damage, and please feel free to contact me with any questions.

    Thank you, and I look forward to a response

  • 45 Weybosset St Hamden, CT, 06514, USA - Hamden
    Last year my house was flooded due to the drain in my backyard, and the nobody come to clean it I need answers and my neighborhood need help with this issue. Thanks !!
  • 117 Augur St Hamden, Connecticut, 06517 - Hamden
    In January we had water seeping in to our basement. After it dried out we sealed the walls and floor with dry lock paint to prevent it from happening again. When it rained on March 9th we woke up to two inches of water in our basement.
    We have been in this house since 1995 and never had a problem.
    The water main directly in front of my house had a major leak.
    We spend over 500$ on paint and had to take time off to prevent the water from ruining stuff in my basement. I’m wondering if the city can reimburse me for the time and money we spent on this.
  • 83 Hill St Hamden, CT, 06514, USA - Hamden
    The storm pipe under lower hill street is too small amd has been in need of repair for the entire 26 years we've lived here. A survey was funded and completed years back, under the Jackson administration but we never heard anything about any work being done.
    Can this please be a.prioriry soon? I am disabled and it frightens me to not be able to leave home in an emergency due to flooding.
    We're begging for a larger pipe (though two, one on top of the other, would be better) to fix the issue. The lack of Paradise Country Club maintenamce of their property is another contributing factor, as there are fallen trees and large limbs everywhere.

    Major water problem. This issue have been going on since 2018. This needs to be addressed! Please advise.
  • 100 Victoria Ct Hamden, Connecticut, 06514 - Hamden
    The property located at 100 Victoria Court has a drain in the middle of the driveway. The drain drains onto the sidewalk which freezes over in the cold weather covering the sidewalk in ice. The icy sidewalk is unsafe to pass on causing a pedestrian to have to walk in the street which is also unsafe.
