Q: How do we get our municipality, the town of Greenburgh, to repair the sewer line so that sewage does enter our home?
A:
Inform the DPW about the sewage backup problem and request their assistance in repairing the sewer line. They should be able to provide you with a timeline for when they can inspect and address the issue
Keep a detailed record of the sewage backup incidents, including dates, times, and any other relevant information. This documentation will be helpful in supporting your claim and ensuring that the town takes the issue seriously.
A: These issues would usually fall under municipal agencies under headings of public works or water and sewage. If the issue impacts other residents, elected officials can sometimes look into the matter. Good luck
