All BS.
They make a developer change some materials every so often to look like they are doing something. Retention ponds are a scam. Most of them stay 75% full all of the time.
I'm not against new developments, but its not done correctly and is done as CHEAP as possible. There's also only so many houses you can put in a single area.

Exactly what they are designed to do ... overflow into the drainage system then stop once the rain has stopped to ease the pressure on the tributaries.

you're conflating developing with building.

Say it ain’t so
This is the purpose of a retention pond. To retain water.

retention basin, sometimes called a wet pond, wet detention basin or stormwater management pond, is an artificial pond with vegetation around the perimeter, and includes a permanent pool of water in its design.
You’re thinking of a detention pond

This comment proves you don't know what you're talking about. Learn the difference between a retention and detention pond.
