Another What would you do question?

I recall Deion Sanders built a lake on his property and backed up water onto a neighbor and had to fix the issue. I searched and couldn't find the article.

Did see this:
https://www.hg.org/legal-articles/w...-is-causing-water-damage-to-my-property-36634

As long as I have been building and developing, the "rule" has been you can't increase your water flow off your property(storm water detention/retention) and you can't back water up onto someone else's property.

I would start with public works and code enforcement and then talk with an attorney if needed.
