Mrs. Stone says she spoke to someone yesterday who was supposed to call her back but she doesn't know who it was. Says when City put in sidewalks a few years ago it caused changes in drainage and now everything (water, gravel, tar) washes up at the end of her property. She's "going to call the Mayor" if nothing gets done, so someone needs to at least touch base with her.

Perpetual, seemingly continuing health problems - including gas leaks, lack of hot water on occasion, and some structural concerns. The sewage system is also extremely suspect. Repeatedly, (at least two times) raw human sewage has leaked in large quantities into basement. Fortune Properties took over a week to repair, and even then, more work was needed that was done.
Our neighbors that live at the home on the NW corner of 11th & Lindbergh have water that flows from a spot near the sidewalk on Lindbergh and pools down at the intersection. This morning it was a strong flow. It pools and is causing issues at the end of the street & potholes are forming. It often smells like sewage. We have lived on Lindbergh since October 2018 and this became an issue in mid to late 2021. It did not always smell like sewer, but it has been more recently. We have noticed stronger flows more recently as well, whereas before it may have just been a trickle so we assumed it was stormwater from a sump pump or roof drain.
The street and sidewalk have been built up in this area so far that the water cannot drain into the street.
