So many potholes on this entire street near Fairview.
So many potholes on this entire street near Fairview.
the ground under the concrete has washed away causing a hole that broke the concrete and created a large hole
Lots of deep potholes.
Several potholes at the base of the hill on N Fairview, tendency to flood. Lots of sediment accumulated at the base of the hill.
The small stub of West 10th Street that runs West from Fairview to another short street called Curve Street and runs for one block is a disgusting muddy mess. If you are not going to maintain this street why don't you dig it up and turn it into green space? During the recent rains the City storm water system was so backed up in this location that the entire area completely filled with water (causing water infiltration into the basement of the house I own at 605 North Fairview. The storm sewers are often blocked and the culvert at the bottom of the park is inadequate to handle the water that runs off Ernest Butler Park. The whole situaiton is a mess and largely caused by City mismanagement. Additionally, the City has repeatedly allowed Mr. Goodman to violate City rules and codes and directives and his mess and non-running cars adds to the mix of this mess--once again a case of City mismanagement. This horrible situation has persisted for years. As the owner of 605 N Fairview I am seriously considering hiring an attorney and taking formal legal action against the City for its inattention to its own rules. If the Goodman property were a rental property that I owned I would be getting a complaint notice every other day. Both Matt Murphy (who owns the commercial property which adjoins my house at 605 N Fairview) and I have invested significant money in keeping our properties nice and generally contributing to the uplift of the Near-Westside. Too bad the City is not helping us! My number is 812-322-2050 and I would be interested in hearing if anyone at the City has viewed the situation on this one block section of West 10th Street.
Potholes on Jackson Street along the side of the church.
This pothole is about 8' x 15' wide and a couple inches deep. Just a mess!
Lots of potholes on both sides of street.
West 7th Street from Rogers to Fairview is full of deep and growing potholes. They are on both sides of the road and impossible to avoid. Patching has been done in the past but never holds. Can the city possibly repave this section? School buses roll through here daily and now workers who cannot park at the Johnson Cremery building are parking here, which is increasing the damage to the road.
While this area is under construction, I wonder if you could fix the drainage on northwest corner of the intersection of 6th and Adams. The storm drain sits slightly above the pavement on one corner. The intersection itself may also be below grade. The intersection collects an inch or two of water when it rains.
