Seminole officials say there is little they can do to resolve the nightmare because the streets and stormwater infrastructure in Shadowbay are owned by the community and are not public property.

What a load of crock. There are laws regarding diverting water onto neighbors lands pretty much everywhere in the country. You can’t just put a dam up and force a river onto a neighbors property, even if the dam is on yours entirely. The same literally applies for any water. Officials can do something, they just choose not to.

I did read the article. Before commenting even. It’s a load of crock. Their lawyers are terrible.
