Building official Mark Holland was intentionally neglecting his duty to address my concerns regarding the nuisance drainage. The opinion of the County FEMA officer was not an option because of an existing conflict of interest, he is the husband of City clerk Celeste Cirinna. I was referred to Lee County Extension Agent Bob Dodds for an opinion in regards to the nuisance drainage issue. Though he had no authority he did have the professional courtesy to stop by the location. He took some photos and wrote a letter to Mayor Dinwiddie on my behalf. The letter also included a copy of Iowa Stormwater drainage laws. According to Dodds a property redevelopment cannot divert more stormwater to neighboring property than before the redevelopment. The photo evidence clearly shows the diversion of stormwater to Boatner’s property significantly more base on the oversized roof surfaces.
