Same goes where I live. There is a cement lined artery that runs through out neighborhoods and out to the ocean. If it had levies placed in it, the water could be kept and used for irrigation until empty. Easily 3 stories deep.
The local wildlife use the remaining pockets of water until the low spots are dried up so it would also extend the water supply for the wildlife.
The cement lined reservoirs are already there, they are just missing the stepped levies.
