During a recent government meeting, officials discussed ongoing drainage issues affecting properties along Steam Plant Road, which have been exacerbated by significant flooding in the area. Residents, particularly those near Farmers' Wind, have reported persistent flooding problems, with water backing up and crossing roadways.

The source of the flooding was traced to a neighborhood where water was found to be flowing from Bluegrass and adjacent fields. Concerns were raised about the drainage easement in the area, prompting multiple visits from engineers and legal representatives to assess the situation.

In a positive development, an attorney involved in the case recently uncovered documentation indicating that the Adams County Board of Supervisors had previously signed legal agreements. These agreements stipulate that a local water company is responsible for maintaining drainage on the affected properties. This discovery is expected to facilitate improvements in the drainage system and alleviate the flooding issues that have plagued the community.

The board expressed relief at the progress made in addressing the drainage concerns and emphasized the importance of ensuring that the water company fulfills its obligations to maintain proper drainage in the area.
