This work analyzes the urban history of Assis, SP, focusing on sanitation and urban waters, especially the Jacu Stream. It seeks to understand how these issues influenced the formation and development of the city, in addition to evaluating the importance of these waters as elements of beautification, hygiene, and health. The research began with a bibliographic and documentary investigation into the formation of the city and its development after the arrival of the railway, analyzing newspapers, City Council minutes, maps, and books. The historical analysis covered the period from 1917 to the present, highlighting key events. The data were transposed onto maps, facilitating chronological understanding. Finally, the information was compiled into a text, elucidating the relationship between the occupation of the valley and its consequences for the city. The results show that the Jacu Stream was crucial in the formation of Assis, being essential for the Jacu watershed. Occupation and lack of planning resulted in significant degradation and challenges in managing stormwater. Drainage works, despite aiming to reduce flooding, did not follow adequate technical standards, exacerbating erosion and landslide problems in the stream.
