Solihull’s Stronger Communities and Neighbourhood Services Scrutiny Board has a report before them next week which provides a review of the Council’s plans for dealing with flooding incidents in Solihull.
It provides details of past major flooding events, explains how future flood events will be managed and how the Borough prepares for flooding through the work programmes of the flood risk and drainage and tanker teams within the Highways Infrastructure Service.
The report also provides an overview of the gully emptying service and outlines options for introducing an evidence led, risk-based approach to prioritise the tanker team work programme. The link to the report is: https://democracy.solihull.gov.uk/documents/s120379/Flood%20Risk%20Management%20Scrutiny%20Report%20-%20FINAL.pdf ).
