Liability Remains In Question For Sewage-Damaged Properties

A church in Denver and a home next door continue to undergo repairs after a sewage backup that occurred the night of Christmas Eve. The Calvary Apostolic Church at 5900 E. Yale Ave and a home nearby were both submerged in more than one foot of raw sewage in December. Four weeks after the basements flooded, the Holly Hills Water and Sanitation board had not addressed reimbursement for damages caused by the flooding. Those involved, including home owner James Riley, told CBS4’s Dillon Thomas they felt the backup was never their fault.
