Constant water source seeming to come up from the road or sidewalk on the southeast corner of Bainbridge and Allendale.
i need rock put in my storm ditch on the left north side of my house.It is washing out
This flows into the pipe in my yard that causes the drain to swirl . Causing the ground next to my house to be cut back . I need this fixed or I’ll report it to the mayor and city Attorney. Just put some rip rap in.
Sorry if this is duplicate submission. Not sure last one went through. I have gulley in front of my house that is blocked by growth coming up between sparse rip rap. Water is eroding the gulley by finding path around foliage and leaves carried from upstream. Went out today after rain and water in not draining well at all. Report not submitting with pic so trying again without the pic
A large storm sewer grate has been removed and apparently thrown down into the hole created. It appears to be vandalism. We have placed 2 saw horses on either side as a temporary warning. It is unsafe and needs to be addressed no later than Monday morning.
The creek is covered in waste that looks like lint. It has been collecting over the past few weeks. There is a drainage pipe at the bridge that looks like the source. The creek bed surface is completely covered.
City crew recently dug out this drainage ditch from 19th & N.Wash St. west along 114 E 19th. Last heavy rain washed large amounts of debris and gravel down to this area. Both grates are blocked - large amt of gravel is piled up in the ditch. Storm grate that had been buried before work is completely covered. Burlap lining ditch is pulled back from flooding. Looks rough. I have more pics but could only attach one. City crew needs to see how their recent work fared.
The low area of this block (1100 South between Washington and Lincoln) is in the old alley and is first flooded by the overflowing ditch along Davis Street and then water continues to flow up from damage pipe clean outs even when water in the ditch has lowered. The water peaked at about 1 foot higher than shown in the attached picture. There is a storm sewer manhole behind this garage, but no inlets are nearby. Is sanitary sewer infiltration to blame for this? Would fixing the clean outs lead to backups inside homes?
pipe broke, lesk in the kitchen and not sewer.
