During this time I have never had any trouble with the storm sewer, except with the increasing oders at its out let, until November of 63. At this time my base- ment was flooded not only with surface water, but also with the . drainage from kitchen sinks and possibly a toilet. This statement is based on information from 2 plumbers. Because of these circumstances, and the rat and mosquito problem created: by the drainage, 'I feel strongly that this has become: a very serious health hazard and should be referred to the public Health Officer. This has been done verbally and a written statement was requested and thus submitted. Your attention will be appreciated.
