It doesn’t matter if the outfall to the lake is submerged. Drainage works off of pressure. If the catch basin is higher than the outfall water will push out into the pond. Now if the catch basin is set at the same height as the stagnant pond level then that’s another issue.

Contractors should be held responsible. They are the ones who do things as cheap as possible, which I understand from their perspective,

There is no way for any water to drain off the culdesac.
Please expound on your theory here

It's called hydraulics.
Please don't talk about something you obviously have no clue about.

Help me learn here. What difference does it make if the pipe is submerged very deep or near the surface? If the water level at the street is higher than the water level of the lake, would the water still drain regardless of how deep the pipe is submerged?

This is what I love about the OT
One person will say something, someone else will come in and say that you are wrong then that person will say some shite like "well.. you just haven't heard about it yet".

Has any of these construction projects ever been done well in AP? Seems like every road construction project gets half assed. They still haven't finished the resurfacing of Airline.

Yes due to the hydrostatic pressure.

Does that appear to be happening based on the pic?

None. If both ends of the pipe are submerged, the level on both sides has to be equal.
Ever funneled a beer? Know how ya hold the end of the hose higher than the beer kn the funnel at first, and it doesn't come out the hose till the end is lower than the top of the beer? Same thing.

That’s my thought. Or the weir system downstream is clogged up somewhere

Good.
The developers need to be held accountable for developments. This BS of letting them throw together shitey homes as fast as they can is ridiculous.
I’m all for anything that makes home builders have to get back to providing better products

dig the lakes deeper duh...this was proposed solution for a draw bridge in houma years ago after a study said that most openings were due to the antennas on tug boats being too high so someone suggested digging it deeper under the bridge

To dig out a pond with water in it, you need to first drain the water using a submersible pump to the lowest point, then gradually dig out the pond while continuously moving the pump as the water level lowers, allowing you to access deeper sections; for larger ponds, you might need multiple pumps or professional excavation services with heavy machinery like a backhoe or skid-steer loader.
Then stock it with bass and have a trophy lake in your back yard
