Location: 272 Fitch Hill Rd
Purpose of Inspection: Complaint form
Inspected By
Wetlands Officer
Public Works Director
Town Engineer
Staff received a complaint regarding the flooding of the property
located at 223 Gallivan Lane. The property owner explained her
concerns. She has provided pictures of her property that indicates
flooding during excessive rain storms. She indicated that she has
always had a wetland area on the property, but over the past few
years this area has increased. She believes that the water is backing
up on her property from the dams that were created on the property
located at 272 Fitch Hill Rd.
An inspection was made of the property on June 24th. The Public
Works Director indicated that he would examine the pipe under
Gallivan Lane and determine if any maintenance was required.
Both the Public Works director and the Town Engineer reviewed
the drainage swale and indicated that the work that was done on
272 Fitch Hill Rd has the potential to create a backup in the pipe
and onto the property at 223 Gallivan Lane.
