I hope they stop acting like they don’t know this happens everytime it storms and actually do something to stop this man’s place of business from getting destroyed.

He has 3 business right there side by side and that hurt the community by him walking into his business and finding them flooded along with electric items in there. That's how he feeds and takes care of his family

Flooding has been a problem ever since I lived in Hazlehurst. I lived there since 79 moved 2006. They need to find someone who will fix and stop all the flooding. If not then everyone residents or business should them for all damages

It really is a shame and is a bold reflection of our city and the negligence, morals, and ethics that it shows to hard working tax payers and business owners the city should be ashamed and this isn’t a new issue by no means Binky is a honest hardworking businessman a family man a father a friend and someone that your proud to have as part of the city and community and he’s had nothing but a hard time since day one from the city and has addressed everything properly and has reached out time and time again with no response or help and overcome the hurdles as they have come which he’s had to fork out himself with no help from our city and not only is he helping the community with a single business but multiple ones so he needs to be heard and they need to make it right in all aspects he’s poured everything in his shops it’s his lively hood it’s how he feeds his family so for the City Of Hazlehurst where’s the principles and morals where’s the justice and he is standing up for what is right and not only being the voice for himself and his places of business but for others in the city that are getting the same treatment and if the city truly cares about the people in it and to make this a better city then please open your eyes and be right by the people that truly care and are trying to make this city a better place for the kids the family’s and the business here take care and lookout for the people that take care and lookout for you officials and if changes arnt made and made soon it will be a ghost town and be destined for ruin and continue to deteriorate as it has been from the lack business and support from the city for business in this town..prayers going up for you Binky and I hope justice will finally be served on this matter and hope you and your business will be blessed from here on out bro

This is fairly ridiculous. Businesses should be treated equally all around the board .

It hasn't only affected his businesses but many of us families that are customers that use these businesses for our children's haircuts, decals for our businesses or need ATV work. This is ridiculous and embarrassing that the city isn't wanting to protect a business that represents our city!!?

It's ridiculous that nothing has been done after being informed on multiple occasions....Step it up Hazlehurst or local businesses will start closing up and what little money that is staying in the community will soon be dwindling out.

Please fix this mess, it has been going on for way to long. I understand with the amount of rain that fell in a short time didn't help but with new drain lines that are larger will help with the drainage. Several business owners should NOT have to do this every time it rains. Maybe this is why the city moved it's offices, to a new location, because they were tired of the flooding.

Mr. Denning is a good guy I met him personally in Vidalia and sold him a vehicle for his family he is a great provider he is an entrepreneur minded businessman he deserves just as much respect from the city as any other business owner. Right is right and wrong is wrong the city needs to maintain their drains just like they do their roads or their road signs or anything else on by the city
