Hole in street near storm drain at bus stop is hazardous to passengers getting on and off bus
The storm drain at Dunn and E. 7th is broken and it appears to have structural damage. The street is starting to cave in.
The storm sewer on Franklin Road, just as it makes a 90-degree turn, is blocked. It does not drain water very well and accumulates. There are other storm sewers near that area that also need cleared.
Clogged storm drain
At the north end of the tunnel under Tapp Rd an atrium grate has been removed from its opening and is lying next to it.
The storm drain inlet on the east side of S. Sare Rd has been blocked by yard waste. The drain is located south of the intersection of Sare and Spicewood Ln.
A large storm inlet on the east side of S Sare road is blocked with debris. This inlet is ~30ft south of the intersection of Sare and Spicewood ln and is located between the public path and a private fence. It is near where the retaining wall / green chain link fence starts. This is not a street level inlet.
The beehive drain at the end of the swail between our properties on Brigs Bend has failed again to drain the large amount of rainwater that fell 8/3/2020. This is the 3rd time we have experienced flooding that not only filled our yard and the side swail (which held water but did not drain to the street as it was designed), but submerged our neighbor's basement entrance. Had the rain not stopped, our basement was also in danger of flooding by a few feet. There is surely something that can be done to fix this problem as it has been occuring over a number of years (found complaints written to the Mayor by previous owners of our home). We ask you send engineers to assess the swails and beehive drain to determine remedies to this continuing problem.
