Christchurch · filed 15 January 2026 · report 7552796
https://www.chch.live/report/7552796

> When it rains most of Orbell Street has significant surface flooding. 72 Orbell has a sump at the front but this cannot work due to significant surface flooding. The water often goes in through the front door of the first unit at 72 Orbell Street. We would appreciate council investigating this issue and remedying.
