Hundreds of South San Diego residents and property owners have joined together for a mass lawsuit against the city for the loss of homes, businesses and other property during the January 22 floods.
In a non-conformed lawsuit obtained by CBS 8, a total of 270 property owners say the city failed to maintain or improve the Chollas Creek storm drains and storm channels ahead for decades leading up to the historic storm this year that dropped several inches of rain in less than a few hours. The downpour inundated storm drains which caused the water to back up and flood entire streets.
"Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are," reads the lawsuit.
The complaint alleges that the city was aware that the cost to maintain and improve San Diego's aging stormwater system outpaced revenue. Yet, despite this, the city, according to the complaint, took "little to no action to develop and pursue a long-term funding strategy," causing what attorneys say was a "moderate inflow of failures into a deluge of need."
