The flood risk is not overstated. Alexandria has a huge flooding problem, especially in the Del Ray area. The system is already overstressed and old. It's well known that the city wasn't even clearing storm drains until they were exposed by citizens and jounalists in the last few years.

It was even an issue in the last election. Sara Bagley told residents to handle it themselves. Residents elected her.  :lol:

Oh, you're the BIBA freak. Got it!

Folks- ignore this lunatic. She's mentally ill.[/quote]

Nope. Not on BIBA. But nice Ad Hominem attack.  :lol: Really proves your assertion that Alexandria doesn't have a severe flooding problem.

Please explain how various news articles and the city's own flood table are false. [/quote]
