“It has been a nightmare. We have lost so much sleep over it already just watching out of the window hoping this little light rain doesn’t flood the entire property.”
Neighbors say that this has been going on for years and that they want the county to take responsibility.
The woman, who asked not to be named or shown on camera, lives in the Spring Lake neighborhood in Folkston in Charlton County. She shared with News4JAX photos of her property after it rained over the weekend. In the images, which were taken Sunday, her property is flooded. This happened just days after she moved into her new home last Wednesday.
Fortunately, the flooding didn’t cause any damage. But the woman says she just found out from neighbors that this is a long-time reoccurring issue.“Pretty much everybody has told us the same thing — it’s flooded, it has a history of it,” she said. “I honestly wouldn’t have purchased if I knew that home had a history of flooding.”
“We do strongly believe that a storm drain needs to be placed to prevent from further flooding,” the woman said.
