Yea it is better late than never but it does not fix the existing problems.
The issue isnt a guy building a 1 acre dirt mountain in the middle of a 10000 acre low area. The problem is subdivisions damming off mini spillways. Digging a big arse hole to "offset" doesnt really do anything in that instance and that's where the real problem already exists.
Where my house is didnt get water on it before the ms river levee was built, and in 2016 we thought we might have to sandbag it. I think I'm at like 16 feet if I remember right. We were worried enough to start running everywhere with a transit and pulling up too maps. The bayou by my house cant get to Spanish lake anymore because Spanish lake elementary basically damned off the overflow.

Retention ponds are usually dug first to make use of dirt. By the time development is complete those things have eroded and silted in and are not worth a damn.
The entire retention pond scheme is a joke.
