At 704 N. Park Ridge Road Ms. Kaye Hill reports that the sidewalk in front of her house is sinking and is adjacent to a storm drain. Sidewalk sink is helping to collect water and contribute to some flooding from recent rains. There are green and orange paint marks on the sidewalk there and it may already be on the list for repair. Please contact Kaye and take a look at the site to determine what can be done and advise Kaye. Thank you.
Where the new water line is going in on Arlington/17th there is cut actoss the road at the 46 bridge. It has been pretty deep to drive across but today on my way home the west bound lane has ~6inch drop towards the shoulder. Even slowing down I was afraid I damaged my car because you cant see the drop until you have already drove across it. Im in a bigger vechicle and it was a huge jar...
MS. BRIDGES CALLED TO COMPLAIN THAT WHEN NEW WATER LINE WAS PUT IN TAPP RD. WAS TORN UP AND WAS ONLY PATCHED, NOT REPAVED. SHE CALLED UTILITIES AND WAS INFORMED THAT ROAD WOULD BE REPAVED BY CONTRACTOR IN DECEMBER. ROAD HAS NOT BEEN REPAVED AS OF TODAY.
Mr. Turpin called and reported that when the Utilities Dept. installed new line on Rockport Road they dug up entry to his driveway. At that time the driveway had a culvert. When redoing his driveway, no culvert was installed. Water backs up in his driveway now and he has a "muddy mess." He would like a culvert installed since he is afraid his car will be damaged.
