Angola Board of Works Approves Storm Water Grant for Manahan Drive Property

The Angola Board of Works approved a storm water grant application for 1108 Manahan Drive. The property owner, Nancy, applied for the grant due to persistent water accumulation in her backyard, which she attributes to inadequate drainage from the street behind her property (Broad Street). The grant will cover 50% of the cost for installing drain tile, aiming to mitigate water issues that have impacted lawn care, prevented outdoor access, and potentially threatened the integrity of her newly poured concrete pad. The project is seen as the best available solution given the limited city infrastructure in the area and the nature of the grant program, which allows city participation in private infrastructure improvements.
