I was hoping someone could help me with an issue I am having.

My wife and moved to Pell City last year in July. We love living on the lake, but a new development, the Reserve, broke ground at around the same time.

The drainage from the reserve was routed to a pipe that runs straight into our backyard. The previous owners had gone to a town council meeting to address the issue. I called Mr. Mike Martin, and he told me they would divert the water away from our backyard.

A year has passed an we basically have a small river running through our yard and into the lake everytime it rains. My backyard has been gouged, leaving only exposed rocks in several areas while leaving behind a constant deposit of rocks and sand. My wife emailed Mr. Martin video of the issue. She spoke to him via telephone and e told her the Reserve developers would build a culvert to address this issue but had to wait till summer to do so (this was in December).

This summer I have called Pell City Water and Sewer repeatedly but they have never returned my calls. I have gone by the center 4 times and left messages...
I do not know how to proceed? Should I contact ADEM?

Thanks for any advice!
