Taylor, Mayor and Members of City Council Roanoke, Virginia RE: Storm Drainage Problems in 2100 Block of Staunton Avenue, N.W. Dear Mayor Taylor and Members of Council: As you requested at your regular meeting of October 17, 1988 staff has investigated the concerns of Mrs. Gladys O'Neil Brown of 2110 Staunton Avenue, N.W. concerning flooding during the summer of 1988. On October 31, 1988 Charles M. Huffine, P.E., City Engineer and Versal R. Dearing, Engineering Technician II, met with Mr. and Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Ogden of Total Action Against Poverty at 2110 Staunton Avenue to learn of all concerns and view pictures previously shown to Council. Further on-site investigation by staff following the meeting revealed the following information: 1. Storm drain drop inlets located upstream from the 2100 Block were filled with debris. These were cleaned out by the Street Maintenance Department. Televising of the storm drain line running in the 2100 Block revealed a par- tially collapsed pipe in front of 2110 Staunton Avenue. This section of pipe was repaired by the Utility Line Services Department. A study of the existing conditions and system will be undertaken by the Department of Engineering to learn if other problems exist in the existing storm drainage system. This study should be complete by February 1, 1989. Following completion of corrective actions on November 1, 1988, Mrs. Ogden was contacted and informed of the status of the investigation. She assured staff that she would brief Mr. and Mrs. Brown.
