The water runoff from Sare Road travels down McCartney Lane to end in a very small drain that is not large enough to facilitate proper drainage. This photo was from yesterday‘s mild rain. At times the water is much deeper and standing longer because the drain is clogged. A larger drain needs to be installed or possibly an additional drain as well, further up the road. This may be leading to erosion of soil and possibly foundation issues and needs to be addressed soon. We are also due to have our road paved this year so the drainage would need to be fixed prior to that. Please advise.

Since the street was repaved our garage has flooded 3 times in the past year due to runoff coming d9wn our driveway and over our yard. We tried to dig a relief ditch but this is more difficult and the flooding is due to the fill in of the original ditch in the easement and the fact that the culvert under the driveway is now clogged with roots and dirt. I need the ditch dug properly. Also, your department fixed a brok3n main last winter and did not fill in the hole left by the repair.

I live at 3230 S Abby Lane. One one side of my house is a water drain from the culdesac. It has had so much sand and debris is no longer drains down the hill as it should. It overflows and washes out my stairs I have to the trail. I have cleaned it numerous times but I get poison ivy and seen several snakes. Neither are my cup of tea. I think it should be dug out better and a solution found for it to flow down the hill and not over my steps. On the other side of my house there are several trees down on the city property. Trees were removed and just pushed over. Due to the fact I am at the bottom of the hill all of the leaves and sticks run down and clog at the bottom. The water backs up and is washing out my yard. I have more and more holes in my yard where it is washing from underneath and there are more logs exposed that much have been buried under my yard that I now have to mow around. The water and mud flow over the trail and it leaves a terrible mess. I go shovel it off and try to keep the trail clean. Several people have asked if I work for the city because I am always down there trying to clean it up. I am getting old and tired. I would love for the city to push all of the mess to another area so the water will actually drain to the drain hole in the field across the trail as it was meant to do. There has to be a better solution. I am upset I would so hard on my house and both sides are getting washed away.

#193202 What is the status of my water drainage concern?

4210 E. Hector Dr. Bloomington, IN 47408 We are having a lot of water issues. In the front driveway, they repaired the water mains in our neighborhood a couple years ago, and when they repaired the road, a ton of water goes from the road , straight down our driveway to the front of our house. It has caused water coming into the basement. And we had to install a drain in our driveway, and it still can't keep up. In our back yard, there is a channel of water (not sure what it's called) by the apartments that causes our back yard to flood. We have a tiny river, but it cannot handle the water that is directed to come right at our back yard. I would like to have an engineer come out and look at the issues and so we can have a conversation about possible solutions. Thanks.
