Yard & Landscape Drainage for Lakeland Village homeowners & businesses

Sixteen separate watersheds drain into this community, and the Flood Control District's master drainage plan records their runoff flowing northeasterly across Grand Avenue into Lake Elsinore along a road it describes as lacking adequate culverts. Most properties here were subdivided in the early 1900s, before subdivision drainage design was regulated.

If the water is moving through the ground and not across it, see French drain installation in Lakeland Village.

Yard & Landscape Drainage questions from Lakeland Village customers

Why does water cross my yard when the rain fell up in the hills, not on my lot?
The Flood Control District's Lakeland Village Master Drainage Plan covers about thirteen square miles and sixteen separate watersheds, and states that runoff originating from these watersheds generally flows northeasterly, across Grand Avenue, and into Lake Elsinore. Existing land use in the study area is predominantly residential or vacant open space, so a yard sitting low on that path takes flow generated well upslope of it.
Grand Avenue floods and my yard goes with it. Is that a known problem?
The same plan states that in general, Grand Avenue lacks adequate drainage improvements — road culverts — to convey significant stormwater flows, and that vehicular travel along Grand Avenue during storm events is a major concern for Lakeland Village residents. One of the plan's stated aims is to maintain ingress and egress along Grand Avenue during major storm events.
Why do so many older lots here have no drainage built into them at all?
The Master Drainage Plan states that most existing properties in the Lakeland Village area were subdivided as far back as the early 1900s, long before the Subdivision Map Act granted local agencies authority to regulate subdivision design, and that consequently most subdivisions in the community were developed without consideration of the area's significant flood hazards and without adequate flood protection and drainage infrastructure in place.
Does what leaves my yard actually reach Lake Elsinore?
The plan's stated outcomes include improving the quality of urban runoff that flows into Lake Elsinore, alongside protecting homes and businesses against a one percent annual chance flood. Riverside County Ordinance 754 separately lists landscape irrigation and lawn watering among the non-stormwater discharges it exempts, which marks the line between applied water leaving a yard and storm runoff crossing it.
