What drying runs into in Batavia
Serving Batavia and the surrounding area, including Woodland Hills, Heritage West, Spring Green, Tanglewood, Heaton Park.
Local housing stock
The typical Batavia house dates to 1985, with close to three fifths of the stock (55.9 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly mid 1980s work. Around a median of 1985 with just over half the stock older, the street layout is a branching pattern of dead ends, so each group of houses drains to a single inlet at the turning circle rather than along a through street.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Batavia gets 39.09 inches a year with May heaviest at 4.74, and the drying season runs from a 23.2-degree January to a 74.4-degree July; rain recorded at BATAVIA 0.7 WSW 0.2 miles away and temperatures at AURORA 4.7 miles away. May is the wettest month at 4.74 inches of a 39-inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in spring on ground still recovering from the thaw; a single inlet has to take all of it.
How water losses tend to end in Batavia
- One inlet serving a whole close, so a blockage there affects every house on it
- Houses ringing the low point, so several properties sit at the same vulnerable level
- No through route for the water, so if the inlet fails there is nowhere else for it to go
