I have water standing in my yard. Can the
Township help solve my problem?
Although townships may not perform work on
private property, we will be glad to meet
with you to provide suggestions on solving
your drainage problems.
My neighbor's sump pump discharges into my
yard. What can I do about it?
The Township encourages all property owners
to connect their sump pumps to the storm
sewer system. Newer plats have a drain
underneath the curb which can be used for
this purpose. Residents in slightly older
neighborhoods can connect to any nearby
catch basin. If your neighbor is not
cooperative in fixing the problem, try
contacting the Montgomery County Combined
Health District at 937- 225-4362.
What type of work needs a permit?
Generally, most types of work done by a
contractor within 12 feet of the edge of the
roadway require a permit. The $10 fee covers
the cost of inspections, which ensures that
the work is completed to township standards.
Remember that sprinkler systems, invisible
fences and landscaping should be kept
fifteen feet away from the street to
minimize possible damages during road
improvements or utility work.
Who picks up dead animals from my yard or
from the street?
The Road Department will dispose of dead
animals that are found on a Township road.
Montgomery County and ODOT also pick up
carcasses on their respective roads. If the
animal is located in your yard, you may have
to dispose of it in a plastic bag in your
trash.
