There are two storm water grates that are dangerous to bicycles that should be replaced. They are located at the south-east corner of the Monroe County Courthouse Square. One is on the west side of Walnut St and the other is on the north side of Kirkwood Ave. These grates have long openings parallel to the street. A bicycle wheel can penetrate deeply into these grates and thus throw the rider and/or damage a bicycle.

The storm pipe/drain does not appear to have sufficient capacity to handle flash flood events. Storm water from the neighborhood overflowed from the street, and then flowed across the neighbor's driveway and down the slope into our property, flooding our crawl space. Last night there was literally a small river of water running aside and into our house, moving so fast that I could not safely walk outside until the rain subsided. We need an engineer to evaluate the current drainage system, in particular the capacity of the storm pipe and culvert that runs directly between our property and the neighbor's. We can make some mitigating improvements on our own property, but we really are not equipped to handle the sheer volume of stormwater from the entire neighborhood during very heavy periods of rain like we saw last night. I took some videos during the flood that we can send as well.

I filed a report about three weeks ago about a blocked storm drain that keeps overflowing and spilling water into our yard. It overflowed yesterday, and it's like a river of water running over the street and into our yard. The water is doing considerable damage to our side and back yard--it's basically underwater whenever it rains. This really does require some serious attention. Either a more thorough clean up or repair. It's costing us 100s if not 1000s of dollars in repairs to our yard. Please try to fix this. The storm drain is clogged on the 1300 block of W 6th Street, and our house is 1315 west 6th street.

Overflow from drainage ditch running along Patterson. This if from 722 W Allen St, 4 houses down from the creek/ditch. It’s probably clogged or blocked, not allowing proper drainage. 2nd time it’s gotten this bad this spring. Has never been anywhere near this in the previous 5 years.

The storm drains at the corner of E. Wimbleton Ln. and S. Montclair are severely clogged. I tried to clear them but couldn’t make them usable.

I live at 1128 n state st, and the storm drain in front of my neighbors house is clogged and backing up into her front yard, she is elderly. I attempted to clean debris away from the grate with no success. She said she called you around noon today but the gentalmen on the phone wouldn’t even listen to her. I understand you all are probably busy with all the rain we’ve gotten but if we get to much more my neighbors house will get flooded. We need this fixed as soon as possible

So, in lieu of a true rain gutter, the street department filled in the deep crevice along Acuff Road with gravel, which after a couple spring rains has washed down in front of our storm drain. As it continues to rain, more gravel will wash. We need a true rain gutter, or the crevice along Acuff needs to be filled in with black top or concrete--something permanent.

Downed trees are restricting the flow of stormwater runoff through the ditch, close to where it intersects the B Line Trail. This is causing the adjacent lot to flood during periods of heavy rain.

This is a follow-up to case # 167833. So the storm drain was uncovered, which is good, however, all the debris that was covering it was thrown in our yard--very much NOT appreciated!!! Now, we have to clean that up. Plus, the 4 or so inches of silt/sand/soil in front of the grate is keeping the rain water from reaching the storm sewer as seen in my photo. We received rain today, and it just collected on the road.
