Just south of 11th Street on the west side of Rogers. The sidewalk is covered in mud and sand again. The barricades have been in place I think since Friday. The sidewalk has been in this state all weekend. It's a lot of clods. There's no driveway permit right? Can't we do something more enforcement oriented.

On the west side of Rogers just south of 11th Street. The trouble is they really need to be clearing this three or four times a day because the unimproved driveway situation is really severe. But instead they don't even clear it when they install the barricades and go home at night. So it's always always a mess. If you meet it in the middle of the day they've just driven giant tractor tired equipment over it dumping literally a pound of mud with every trip. If you come in the evening or the morning it's still messy cuz they didn't clear it when they installed the barricades when they went home at night. should I just stop reporting these I don't know if I'm wasting your time I just figure that when a construction project uses a sidewalk as a driveway that doesn't mean that every pedestrian should get muddy feet or slide on sand. Is that insane? Am I asking too much? I'm clearly asking too much. But just tell me do you want to hear about this?

Sidewalk on south side of 17th st, across from 924 w 17th. Mud has again accumulated from the runoff at the tri north construction site. When it's raining, the whole hillside now drains onto the sidewalk, from the tri north driveway west to the western property line. This sidewalk gets the direct runoff of a whole acre now. The sidewalk is now a culvert for the hillside. Nothing serves as a culvert for the sidewalk. A river flows through the sidewalk. This isn't going to go away when the grass grows back. It will be a complicated and expensive problem to solve. Please make addressing this drainage problem a condition of signing off on their work and getting their ROW escrow back, or this sedimentation will continue indefinitely. Thanks!

Sidewalk on south side of W 17th just east of tri north construction entrance covered with mud again. I can't overemphasize that the sidewalk itself is serving as a culvert to drain several acres and this problem will not go away on its own when the construction crews leave. I'll try to remember to come out here with a ruler when it rains next week to record the depth of the creek. Kids will be using this sidewalk to walk to school even on rainy days and their shoes should not be completely submerged!! We are going to look into this today (5/17). We believe that a soil stockpile and a storm drain with inlet protection is not allowing water to flow into the storm drain. We are going to investigate again and see if we can identify the exact issue.
