Residents of San Ramon senior community still homeless after New Year's Eve flood.

residents are still unable to live in their homes. This, after a New Year’s Eve flood sent a river of water into their senior community."This is what’s left of my house," she said, motioning to an empty living room with ripped-up flooring.

"It was just coming in so fast that my dog was on the couch. And I ended up going on the couch," she said. "We’re thinking about how are all of us going to get out okay, and safely?" Former resident association president Guy Gardner says poor drainage, and a wall at the back of the property, which separates San Ramon from Dublin, exacerbated the flooding.

KTVU reached out to officials with both San Ramon and Dublin to learn more about the wall. The Dublin city manager said if the wall was built by that city, construction dates back to the mid-80s. But not much else is known about the wall and why it was constructed.
