City Alley off Grant Street, between 1006 and 1004 South Grant: Mouth of alley has a broken, metal city culvert which is now sunken in. Driving over it is becoming hazardous to cars. In addition, all the stone gravel that covers this culvert has worn away. Entire alley from South Grant to South Lincoln could use re-graveling. Thank you!
Grate has fallen in the storm drain. Open storm drain is hazardous to people and vehicles.
Re: Storm drain open. System will not accept South Ct (Hyde Park) as the street location.
Resident reported manhole cover is not correctly placed as cars driving over it flip it up
At the intersection of Pete Ellis Drive and Braeside Drive (Crossing At Pete Ellis apartments), there is a storm drain that is severely sunken in the ground with multiple potholes next to it. It is dangerous to enter/exit Braeside Dr because cars drive on the wrong side or down the middle to avoid sinking a wheel into the large drain hole.
Right in the middle of the intersection of 7th/Grant is a metal plate that is damaged and dangerous. It is not as big as a sewer manhole or even a water-meter cover. It is about 7" in diameter and appears to have been painted bright blue, but the entire center of the plate is missing, leaving a hole that one could step into and twist an ankle or a small animal could fall in there and not be able to escape. We called the City Streets department about this awhile back and made a verbal report, but nothing has been done about this. That was probably a month ago.
The ditch between my driveway and the adjoining driveway is clogged with dirt and debris that I want removed. I can do it, but I don't want to encroach on a neighbor's land or the City of Bloomington land without permission. the ditch is not on the pavement but may lie within the City's right-of-way, and I may need your permission or guidance to clear the drainage ditch and empty the culvert underneath my driveway. Is University Street an easement or a fee title? We also have a dead ash tree a yard from the pavement on the lot line, probably due to the Asian emerald ash borer, an invasive pest, and I have other live ash trees that I would protect. What are the rules for removing the hazard tree?
A fairly deep depression suddenly formed in the pavement in the street in front of our house. It currently not very large in diameter, and it is very close to the edge of the road, so I’m not sure it’s that much of a hazard to cars. But it could become a problem If it continues to grow.
This will cave in soon and make a bigger hole.
At the intersection of East Arden Dr, and Sycamore Ct., a cover used to prevent construction debris from entering the storm sewer inlet has yet to be picked up. It may pose a traffic or pedestrian hazard. Thank you.
