Jeff, we investigated your drainage concern a few weeks ago and I apologize for my delayed response. We found a few places where an old asphalt curb was now missing and probably allowing water to run off the apartment property toward the back of your building. Unfortunately this a private matter between two property owners and will need to be resolved by you two. In Indiana situations like this typically fall under the Common Enemy Doctrine, since stormwater is a common enemy, a property owner can release runoff on another property and that lower property has to deal with it. I'm obviously paraphrasing and am not a lawyer but this a frequent issue we deal with and this is what our legal counsel has told us. Sorry I don't have better news. We also noticed a lot of tree and pine needle debris that might be clogging your inlets back there.

Phil, There is private storm behind the commercial building, but it appears to have inlets which might capture drainage from the apartments?
