Hydrant at Sheffield and Morningside is leaking.
Hydrant at Sheffield and Morningside is leaking.
Are folks allowed to drain straight into the street? House at Park Ridge and Morningside has two to three new drain outlets straight into street and city sewer. Morningside side.
Water and debris continuously builds up on the west side of the street. The road slopes to the west side and there are no nearby stormwater drains. The closest drain is 1/2 block north on the opposite side of the street. This picture is directly in front of my house. The pavement at this site erodes due to all the standing water and debris and requires consistent patching. I have lived at this address for 16 years and this has been an ongoing problem. I have concerns this will only get worse as there is a new bus route starting in August which will be using this stretch of the road several times a day. I am told the road is to be resurfaced this summer however, without a proper drain system in place this will not resolve the problem. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Storm Drainage system at corners of Sheffield with Cambridge and Providence aren't sufficient and often are overwhelmed during heavy rains. This happens even without them being clogged.
