Just one more question, is it legal to let the water run off to the street? If it is, I will just grade the soil so it runs towards the…

Potential Water buildup under slab

Just removed 40 liters of water in the span of 2 hours. Water fills up the hole just above the seepage point and doesn't overflow.
