Washington City Council members listened last night to a group of Washington residents concerned about flooding.
Concerns sparked by heavy rains over the past few years, especially the nearly 12 inches of rain the city received over a three-day period a few weeks ago, were addressed.
Candice Crawford, who lives in the 500 block of West Hefron, was the spokesman for the group.
She told the council how the flooding had damaged property over the past few years.
Crawford and Michale Alvarez, a resident of the 500 block of North Meridian, presented photos of high water and damage to houses and property.
Mayor Rhoads said the city would check the drainage system in the area and have the city engineer access the situation.
