Joseph Lee and his family have lived on Treakle Terrace in Portsmouth for 26 years, and for all of it, a Crown Castle cell tower property has sat directly behind their backyard.

Lee said the company has failed to maintain the property for years, leaving behind overgrown grass, weeds, fallen trees and limbs.

"We've constantly had this going on with us where they don't keep it maintained like they should," Lee said. "It's not fair on us because we see this every day."

They said that teachers will return on Friday, but students will return on Monday.

Neighbors shared videos with News 3 showing flooded roadways in several parts of the city.

PORTSMOUTH: In case you missed it, a 30-inch sewer force main break happened Tuesday night on Douglas Avenue. It released 3 million gallons of sewage into in Hulk Creek and a lot was on the street too. Crews from HRSD will be here working around the clock until it’s fixed. They don’t have a timeline yet. There’s another video in my commentsā€¼ļø
