Staff has confirmed that the leaking water is sewage. Staff has contacted the property owner and will be reaching out to the Monroe County Health Department.
Other: See case #186334. Has there been a coliform test done on the malodorous effluent that is seeping out of the SE corner of the yard at this rental address and covering the sidewalk making it impossible to avoid? Or is an obvious sewage leak that has been present for months not a concern of the City? We haven't had a cholera outbreak in awhile now - perhaps that is the goal (?)

We have tested the water and it came back positive for e. coli. Staff are contacting the property owner to address the issue.
Please investigate as an IDDE
This was investigated back during the original uReport. At the time we did not believe this was sewer and could be a sump pump from the basement of the house. I've created another service request (#1233) and requested our Environmental Department come out and investigate the issue as a possible illicit discharge.
