Resident urges city fixes after drainage sends stormwater onto High Street property
Summary
Resident Clint Colic told the Ishpeming City Council that stormwater from 3rd Street and High Street is funneled to his property and urged the city to act after an inspection confirmed the problem.
Clint Colic, a resident at 412 East High Street, told the Ishpeming City Council that a design flaw in the roadway forces stormwater onto his property and that the volume of water is overwhelming small storm drains. "There's a very high volume of water that comes down that street," Colic said, asking the council for a clear plan and timeline to fix the problem.
Colic said the city manager inspected the location and agreed there was an issue and repeated that the problem is "of the city's making." Councilors acknowledged the complaint, said their public‑works staff had been involved, and invited Colic to follow up with staff during the week for additional details. Council members said repairs are a priority but noted the work depends on available funds from the public improvement fund.
