Summary

Nepean’s neighborhoods are drowning in frustration as flooding turns underpasses into canals and basements into swimming pools—again. Residents in Knoxdale-Merivale, College, and Bay wards are fed up with being the canary in the coal mine for aging, overwhelmed stormwater systems. With extreme weather on the rise and infrastructure lagging, experts and officials are scrambling to collect data and find solutions—while homeowners are already installing backwater valves and sump pumps to stay afloat. The cost is steep, but for many, the risk of another flood is too high to ignore. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
