SEWER BACK UP
HE SAID HE WAS EXPERIENCING A SEWER BACKUP, HE SAID HE HAD ROTO ROOTER OUT AND THEY SAID HIS LINE IS CLEAR, IT WAS CBU PROBLEM
SEWER WATER BUBBLING UP FROM THE MANHOLE
Yesterday, during the huge mid-day rainstorm, water came up through the floor drain in our basement at 2638 East Dekist Street. It had a sewage odor and was muddy looking and reached a level of about 4 inches, covering the entire floor and soaking everything. The basement toilet also had dirty water come into it. I called the city utilities hotline and reported the incident twice, speaking to the same person each time. The water receded after a couple hours. We have yet to assess the damage and start to clean up. Last year on 2/11/18 our basement toilet erupted (see case #163027). We had a plumber verify that the city sewer was the source of the issue. We did not claim any damages, yet the city did not reimburse us the cost of the plumbing assessment. We would appreciate someone responding to this current incident.
Third year in a row (2/8/2018 # 163027, 2/8/2019 #167355), when the fatberg grows just downstream from me, the city delivers hundreds of gallons of sewage into my basement. This year was a new high water: 6-7 inches. It is sewer, not my house backing up... It is because of a flaw in the connections just downstream from me. The city has closed the previous reports as "Resolved" without my consent. This is obviously not resolved. I'd much rather have Bloomington spend money on fixing this, rather than attorney fees, but without quick resolution, this year, I will proceed.
Customers basement is flooding. He feels that its due to erosion around City sewer lid.

SEWER BACKUP
At least 3 floors of the Walnut Street parking garage smell powerfully of sewer gas.
