Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)
- Case Date:
- 9/7/2022
We are contacting you with hopes of getting some advice regarding the storm water stream that runs along E Vernon Ave in Matlock Heights neighborhood.
There is a storm/ rain water stream( path) that runs under N Dunn Rd , goes west on E Vernon Ave and under Fritz Dr and eventually goes into a larger creek.
Over the past few years this pathway has been deteriorating with some of the road erosion happening right before the water goes into the culvert under our driveway.
The previous owner of our property added some rocks and blocks but it does not solve the road erosion problem.
We are needing guidance and help since we do not know how to address the erosion and also the public road.
We have addressed this issue on March 14th and this is the response we have received almost a month later on April 6th

Mihaela,
Thank you for checking in on this. We did have our crew go out and assess. They determined that they do need to do some trenching in this ditch to improve the issue. We have added it to our work order list and will get to it as soon as we are able.
Thank you,
Katherine

Hello,
I am writing back to follow up on the storm water issues we are having in front of our property. The crew came and assessed the situation on 03/14 but we have not heard anything else since then. I did not know if there is anything else we need to do.
Thank you,
Mihaela

During the rain event on Wednesday evening (Jan 18), I notice significant water standing at the NE corner of 3rd and College. Several cars, including mine, moved into the center lane (west bound) on 3rd, to ensure that the rising water would not come into contact with the car. Can the drain at that NE corner/intersection be checked/cleared? This is the second time I have experienced this at that intersection, this year.

Thanks for working on three storm drains on the cited street. However, we see that the space behind the drains has not been repaired with dirt. One drain still has stakes and tape around the ground behind the back of the drain. Will your department be putting topsoil and grass seed and straw in the large gaps left after your work? Thanks.

All of the storm sewers along Hillside De that I ran past this morning between Moores Pike and Henderson were very clogged with debris and mud. You could barely see where they were besides the excess sticks, leaves, and mud buildup. Often times our neighborhood drains (Sycamore Knolls) are similar after a big storm.

The storm grate in the 300 block of 7th street is broken and the structural integrity of the drain appears to be somewhat compromised. The concreate around the drain is severely damaged. This is a fairly new drain so I'm a bit surprised that it has broken so quickly.
