To report a clogged storm drain or a deteriorated catch basin contact our office at (315) 437-8331.
The Highway Department is responsible for installation and maintenance of the public storm drainage systems. Public storm drainage systems include storm sewers, catch basins, yard inlets, drainage ditches, and holding ponds. Storm drainage systems are cleared of obstructions on a regular basis with critical areas inspected and cleared before major storms. Drainage easements and rights-of-way are indicated on property surveys. Home owners are urged to check their property surveys before adding fences or plants to insure that the easements and rights-of-way are readily accessible. The Town is not responsible for replacement of buildings or plantings that are hindering the maintenance of a drainage area. |
