Westwood's varied terrain and aging homes create a wide range of water damage challenges.

Steep hillside lots overlooking the Mill Creek Valley channel significant stormwater toward downhill properties
Aging combined sewer infrastructure causes basement backups during heavy storms throughout the neighborhood
Multi-family conversions of older homes often have inadequate drainage for the increased water usage and building load
