To the Editor:

Another large rainfall event is visiting our mountains this week, which can lead to flash floods and dangerous driving conditions. I can't help but wonder if some improvement might be attained by simply keeping the drains unclogged that are choked with debris from months of neglect. Call the Division of Street/DOT road crew, etc.? 

I did back before Flo was possibly coming at us. I was told it would be checked out but nothing has been unclogged along Russ Avenue yet. Primarily across from Kmart all going downhill towards Lake Junaluska. I've noticed other roads and areas as well. I'm sure there are different departments whose responsibility this task falls upon, but I think safety and common sense should prevail.
