(A) STORM DRAINAGE is defined as water runoff as a result of an act of God, consisting of any accumulation of water that may cause flooding of a town roadway and/or town right-of-way.
(B) The town shall provide a drainage system that will carry a flow of water from the roadway, preventing any build up of stormwater on the roadway, causing a danger to traffic flow, or damage to the roadway.
(C) The flow of stormwater shall be allowed to take a natural path as to the terrain of the land. At such time that the stormwater flow reaches a low point along the roadway, it shall be directed away from the roadway.
(D) At which time the stormwater flow is directed away from the road right-of-way, it shall then become the responsibility of the land owner to disperse of the water at the land owner’s expense.
