Why doesn't the Town clean out the stream behind my house?

The Town maintains the storm drainage system within the Town maintained street right-of-way only. NCDOT maintains storm drainage systems on NCDOT maintained right-of-way. Storm drainage pipes and drainage paths off the right-of-way are the responsibility of the individual property owners unless a HOA is identified for maintenance on the recorded plat.
