# Street Gutters / Storm Water, 21 Albert Sheppard Close, Yaldhurst, Christchurch 8042, New Zealand

Yaldhurst, Christchurch · filed 1 July 2026 · report 8503440
https://www.chch.live/report/8503440

> Even though a drain was dug by CCC, that has not solved the issue. The grate is installed higher than the water table. Water hasn't been below the grate level for several years The grate needs to be higher, so there isn't a big pool of water for a toddler to drown in, and for mosquitoes to breed in.
