Quispam Homeowners Seek Help Over Drainage Issues

Homeowners on Merritt Hill Road in Quispamsis asking council to address water drainage issues in their area. Paul Chamberlain of 15 Merritt Hill Road says water sometimes builds up in his ditch and then spills over onto the road.

He says they are trying to reasonable but he wants to see something done about it adding it would be nice to have a property that their taxes dictate they should have.

Council deciding to let staff look into the issue to see if there is some way to divert the water. Town Engineer Gary Losier says it may be as simple as clearing the pipes of any debris.
