Correction to case #187344: Current destination pool of effluent is on the *NE* corner of Lincoln/10th, not NW.
In the grass north/south easement behind my property that runs parallel between Washington and Lincoln, just south of Davis, there is an open sewer pipe.
Sewer lid behind our home is overflowing. We are leaving town, but thought we should report. It is close to Sherwood Oaks Park and Olcott Park walking path. Approximate red marker.
water bubbling out of sewer (water appear clear)
There is water coming up out of the manhole cover.
At least two sanitary sewer cleanouts in the ROW with sewage leaking out. One is in the middle of the sidewalk at the Northeast corner of S High Street and E Arden. The other cleanout is about 50 feet North of the cleanout in the sidewalk.
There has been a strong smell of raw sewage in this area for the past week. I could smell it from the bypass each morning. Just drove down towards Cascades (Sunday night 11/6) and it is really bad down there. Please fix the sewer issues in this area.
There is water that smells like sewage bubbling up out of the drainage pipes. I've seen it literally bubbling up as if under pressure so I believe it comes from some kind of underground pipe but I can't be sure. The area is always wet as a result and smells.
Sewage water backing up into my basement. I have checked all of my own plumbing (bathroom in basement; water heater; washer) and everything seems to be in good shape. I have identified water coming (in reverse) out of the drain that services my AC/Furnace. That sewer water then makes its way to my basement floor drain and exits. I have obseved that at heavier usage times (when 2 of us are in the shower and the washer is on) the drain is unable to keep up and thus water ends up on the floor of my basement. This has been happening for about 4-5 days now.
