# Flooding, 11R Bofors Close, Wigram, Christchurch 8025, New Zealand

> Bofors Close is flooded, yet again! I have reported this several times over recent years. Every time there is a rain event, the water cannot overflow into the swales/flood basins. Poor design. I believe the solution is simple and not costly. It would be nice if you could address the problem instead of sweeping it under the carpet each time. I am happy to discuss and would welcome a site meeting to resolve. How about getting it sorted? Even the footpaths are flooded this time.
