Ownership Rights: City Public Drainage Pipes on Property That Collapsed

My question involves personal property located in the State of: North Carolina
For four years our neighborhood has been flooding the city is finally telling us what is wrong and our options. They said the public storm drainage pipes under ground on private home owners lots is collapsing. City of Concord is telling 16 families that they need to all agree and sign an agreement and all 16 home owners have to pay $4,400 within 30 days. The $4,400 will give these homeowners a drainage channel/sway anywhere from 3ft to 20 feet deep and 20ft wide. These homes have no back yard. So these homeowners would step out their back door and fall in a 20ft trench. If they don't all agree and pay $4,400 then the city will force each homeowner that has storm water drainage blockage to install a new pipe. The Pipe will cost estimate $20,000 per 20ft pipe. The city said if homeowners don't pay the $20,000 the city will get a warrent and come to the home and install it then the city will put a lien on house.
Its my understanding that the contractor is no longer in business and even if they were its past statues. Homes were built in 2000. I was told these contractors put the wrong pipes in. I asked city aren't you responsible for inspecting city water drainage pipes? They said no this wasn't considered city it was county and no county isn't responsible for inspecting it. Now our development is mapped for city of Concord. SO is there any way to help these families?
