More "Visions", More Flooding

There were two stories back to back that caught our attention last night. The first was Fort Worth planners meeting with approximately 200 residents to learn about the "Lake Worth Vision". Restaurants, shops, parks, etc. at Lake Worth, think Trinity River Vision on a hopefully smaller, less expensive scale.

Without any pause, the next story was about repeat flooding in Collin County. Homes with 2-3 feet of water inside. They showed footage from the same area that was hit in the 2007 floods. Watch the story at WFAA.com.

In an area of Celina known as "Old Town," drainage has been an issue for years.

The frustrated homeowners say drainage problems are nothing new to the neighborhood. News 8 did a story on Alabama Street in June of 2007. A new culvert helped, but didn't eliminate the problem. The homeowners believe the city could do more to help the drainage situation.
