FYI if it's a 6" main 800 GPM flow , 8" 1600 GPM flow at minimum of 50 PSI so it doesn't take long for a mess to be made. Probably a minimum of 1/2 hr. for someone to come out and then shut the main down. So think of how much water flowed before it was shut down

You seem to be totally confused.

First you said the county built it...which isn't true.

Then you talk about water mains (water pressure)...when this issue is simply a storm drain.

There are already some articles you can find with a Google search, that explains what happened and the timeline...if you want to get up to speed and understand the facts.

As for who's paying for it, our taxes are paying for what was built by the developer (then sold)...that has obviously failed decades prematurely.

I, for one...don't think that's OK.
