Impact analysis
Expect possible out-of-pocket cleanup—soggy basements, ruined belongings, maybe a dead sump pump—though the city hasn't put a dollar figure on anything yet.
Anyone whose street or basement floods—crews are already on it, so you get faster relief and a heads-up before the next round of rain.
Nobody's really harmed here, though homeowners with chronically wet basements are the ones likely stuck with the repair bills.
