Cicero is a densely built Cook County suburb where nearly all land surface is impervious, causing rapid stormwater runoff directly into the aging combined sewer system during rainfall events. The town is part of the Addison Creek and Salt Creek watersheds, and heavy summer thunderstorms quickly overwhelm the combined sewers and generate basement backups across the municipality. Even 1–2 inch rainfall events regularly produce water damage claims in Cicero's dense bungalow-era residential blocks.
