Recurring residential drainage complaints

Summary

Winfield Township's rep flagged ongoing flooding at the Marshall property on Route 231 — water still backs up over the road — plus questions on the 145th Avenue drainage project. A St. John-area homeowner (Jason Jansma) needs direction on West Creek drainage changes; the county plans a storm sewer down the rideway to fix it.
