Residents raise Pinehurst drainage and retention-pond flooding concerns; engineer recommends study

Jul 23, 2024

Residents reported ongoing ponding and blocked drains at the Pinehurst triangle and a retention pond between River 8 and River 9. The District Engineer said the plugged inlet removed flow and left water with nowhere to go; the Board directed staff to gather video evidence and ordered an on-site inspection.

The full story

Resident Shari Perkins told the River Ridge Community Development District Board on July 23 that, a week after a pipe was plugged, drainage problems persist at the Pinehurst triangle monument and that a retention pond between River 8 and River 9 appears non-functional and is nearly 1 foot above the drain. The Board heard photographic evidence may exist and asked staff to collect it.
