The litter behind the Kroger Food Store is overwhelming. Not only is it unsightly it is getting in to the drainage causing flooding Shore Drive and the Bradford Acres. I live in the neighborhood which is NOT designated a flood zone, however when we get a substantial rain our drains back up and our streets flood. Our drains connect to Shore Drive. These drains need to be cleared on a regular basis. One neighbor has cleared (as best he could) the drains pulling out grocery bags, large pieces of plastic and wood. The area behind the Kroger is filled with such trash. I have picked up trash from our lake that is obviously litter from the parking lot and from behind the store.

With the big concern about drainage and raising taxes I feel that the city needs to get a handle on the amount of litter that goes in our drains. Our lake is designated for storm run off. This brings much debris to the drains.

Although I did not take any pictures, Kroger is not the only shopping area that has this problem. The area behind Chicks (Bayside) shopping center is also a problem.

Thank you for your time.
