Immediately behind 150 Caldecott Lane is a natural waterway
that travels down from Tunnel Road. This
waterway flows into a private property drain.
The drain is located just behind the retaining wall.
And chicken wire fence.
Why are there so many sand bags behind the buildings on
Caldecott Lane?
It appears that the answer is: “to block water flow.”
It also appears that there are natural creeks flowing from the hills above us and down from Tunnel Road.
What is particularly disconcerting is that some tenants have
reported flooding in both 150 and 142 Caldecott Lane.
While I have not substantiated these
reports, I have received separate and independent reports about flooding to be
concerned. . . To substantiate flooding, dated photographs are
necessary showing the condition. These conditions should first be reported
to building management. If the conditions are not abated by the property owner,
then the City of Oakland Building Inspection Department should be notified.
While reports about an inadequate number of garbage
containers and debris on the property can be made anonymously, a report to a
city official about your unit is not anonymous.
