Mr.T.C.Brown,Chairman; Adjustment Board,City of Edgewater; Edgewater,Fla. Bear Sir; I would like to call your attention to the flood condition that exists in Highland Shores,in that area between the highway and the F,~ ~ Railroad. In view of the fact that the present so called mosquito contraL ditch is inadequate to handle the water in this watershed~namelY from the cemetery to the south canal-and ad~ to this, the large amount of w~~ that is now finding it's way into this watershed from the Model Land Co. properties west of the railroa.d,those of us who have homes in this area are faced with a serious health problem. The water recently came within fifteen fee$ of my house an~ my neighbors were completelY inundated.As you know,all of us in this area useshallow wells to obtain wa>>er for home consumption. Also we have Septic ~anks with drain fields for sewerage disposal. With water as'much as a foot deep covering some of our yards,it goes without saying what can happen. My neighbors and I would sincerely appreci~te anything that you and your committee could do for us. Yours
