Avalon - We checked the precipitation records from the National Weather Service and Avalon, as of 9 a.m. June 13, had about half an inch of rain in 24 hours. That is almost nothing, yet our street, which almost never flooded from rainwater, had 9" of water from Ocean Drive to Dune Drive. To Avalon leaders and Avalon Zoning Department, stop granting variances which allow bigger homes and more concrete. The rainwater cannot get into the ground, so it runs off and causes flooding.
