SEWER ODOR IN BACKYARD.
The sanitary sewer at the corner of my yard (Forrester and Kristen Ct) is putting off a terrible smell. Several weeks ago a utility truck was scoping the sewer and I did not notice before then but now it is very pronounced while I wait with my child at the bus stop.
Sewer backup.

SEWER BACK UP - WATER ALL OVER THE FLOOR
CITY ENGINEERING SAW RAW SEWAGE GOING INTO JACKSON CREEK.
My sewer has been backing up in my basement for several weeks. Roto Rooter came out to identify the problem. They found that my line is "party line" and is attached to my neighbor's line. The lines meet in his driveway and my line crosses through his front yard (see photos). Our houses were built in 1962. I know talking to the plumbers that this is illegal. To make it better, my neighbor is deceased (died in November) and the house is a foreclosure. No family is wanting responsibility for the house. We tried to call the bank to see what to do. The driveway and front yard will need to be dug up to move and replace the pipe. Who can I speak to to discuss how to proceed with this and (honestly) who will help pay for it?
I sent a ureport to you 7-17 before receiving this estimate from roto rooter. It appears they will need to reroute the later to city main sewer and will be cutting the city street as well as backfill per code. Is this something you can help me with?
