WLOX-TV - The News for South Mississippi: Habitat Homes Not Responsible For Union Street Flooding:
"Habitat for Humanity's Hancock County project manager wants to set the record straight. She says Habitat's Union Street development in Bay St. Louis did not cause the street flooding that followed last week's heavy rain storm."
And later:
"City work crews pulled all kinds of debris out of the ditches from old wheelbarrows to old tires. Habitat is in the process of building ten homes on Union Street. When the organization heard the flooding complaints, it hired an engineer to look into the flooding problem.

I used to live on Union Street, (up until August of 2004), where I then moved 2 blocks over to Main Street. When we resided on Union Street, well before the effects and after-effects of Hurricane Katrina, the street flooded regularly when it just rained. The drainage ditches were either inadequate, or full of debris, and would turn our yard into a swamp upon a simple rainshower.
