What is a Drainage District?

What is a drainage district?

Each established county drain has a legally established area of land known as a drainage district. Drainage district boundaries are typically determined by a drain's watershed. A watershed is an area of land that captures rainwater and eventually carries it to the nearest lake, river, stream, or drain. Watershed boundaries are determined based on topography of the land and, where applicable, storm sewer infrastructure. Within a drainage district, each drop of rainwater soaks in the ground, flows across the land, or enters a storm sewer eventually making it to that district's established drain

However, not every drain you see is under our jurisdiction. Some, such as roadside ditches, might be the responsibility of the county road commission or private landowners.
