ALARM SOUNDING IN FRONT OF 311 N. CURRY PIKE
On the night of 3/24 we experienced a backup of sewage into the entire walkout basement level of our house. I don't know yet if the issue is on our property or begins with the city sewer lines but I felt it should be report as it was a huge backup resulting in 1-3 inches of water filling our entire basement which is now being gutted.
Cottage Grove between Lincoln and Washington on the north side of the street, starting at the alley, sewage spears to be flowing east downhill from perhaps a leak. Bad smell.
Sewer backup yielded that Fiber Optic company damaged line between city's sewer line and my lateral line causing major back-up twice between October, 2024 and January 2025. I've spoken with Paul Edwards and Kyle Baugh about this. All Plumbing Todd Braner has been here several times. I have many bills related to this problem from Mann Plumbing, Commercial Service, and CORE Restoration and need to know how and where to submit these bills. I have spent well over $7,000 for plumbers and clean up crews to deal with flooding of sewage to my bathroom seeping under walls into hallway and bedroom. Please advise as to how to be reimbursed for these expenses caused by the failure of the City of Bloomington and/or the Fiber Optic company.
Contractors were working at the front of my yard 2 or 3 weeks ago, and I noticed a sewage smell in my garage around the same time. Unfortunately, the smell has not gone away. Can you confirm whether the city has been in my neighborhood doing work and whether the sewage line in the area has been compromised?
