It's a matter of perspective really.

In the sense that the fence is built on higher ground, but it's not obvious because of the perspective the photo is taken from.

This image was the basis of Netherlands building dykes in 1200 AD.

Ironically rain flooding is usually solved with slower drainage

False neither was designed. Some consultant put numbers in a spreadsheet and back charged the people who built it.

the installers moved it back a foot because engineering drew it where the retaining wall is. yard debris plugs drain grates with heavy rain. shit happens . clean up or swim to your car ¯_(ツ)_/¯
