Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

Our toilet drains slowly. There is also a bubbling in the toilet when we run the water faucets in the powder room, the kitchen and upstairs. We noticed the problem with drainage on Monday August 28, and it has gotten worst since. There has been recent work on our easement to lay fiber lines. We are certain the issues for our toilet drainage are directly connected to the work done in the past few days. Please remedy our situation. We are not certain if we can run our showers and laundry due to the backup in our downstairs toilet.

I have had sewage come up through our bath on our basement level 3 times in the past 7 months. It’s quite disgusting, and I can share pictures of this is you would like to see what this looks like. I have had HFI run a camera through all of my drains and I watched the video as they were doing this. There were no blockages at all; all the pipes were clear. The camera followed the drains all the way to the city sewer (5999 on the map). I have also spoken to a neighbor two doors down at 3212 S Abby Lane who has had the same thing occur multiple times. She has contacted the City too and they found a grease blockage which apparently was cleared. However, she said that there was back into her basement two weeks after that. After spending thousands with HFI and other plumbers, and out of frustration, she has purchased her own drain camera and equipment to clear out the drain should that occur again.
Since this seems to be a recurring problem on the Abby Lane side of Bentley Court, here is my question: Is it possible to have the sewer/drain system that services Bentley Court checked for blockages or waste build-up? When last was this done? What drain systems from other neighborhoods feed into this system? The sewage has to come from somewhere.
We really want to get to the bottom of this. Would you please help me? I cannot have my family live on the basement level when this type of thing keeps occurring.
Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from you.

A Roto Rooter plumber opened the two manholes on the street in front of my house and said that the sewage line it isn't emptying appropriately. This can cause serious problems. Would you please check on that issue? Thank you.

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 (?)

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Bloomington- Lincoln St Unit has smelled like sewer gas for the last month. There is standing water in the sewers outside of the building. It is very difficult to run a full day of program when my staff and our members have to deal with the strong smell of sewage.
