After the flooding in January, firefighters spent a day pumping water from shops in the area.
The shopping centre was closed with no electricity and hundreds of residents also lost their electricity supply.
East Sussex County Council has carried out an investigation into the cause of the flooding and a report is expected to be published soon.
