Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)
350 W 11th ST

- 10/8/2018
I am submitting this Ureport on behalf of Upland Brewing.
Pete Batule of Upland Brewing contacted me on 10-5-18 to say that Upland has been experiencing significant issues with odor coming from the storm drains on the north side of 11th street directly in front of Upland's patio. The odor is having a negative impact on their patio dining customers.
Here is background on the issue as provided by Mr. Batule:
Upland has had ongoing issues over the last few years with odors near the patio. They installed a piece of equipment above their lift station (the Peacemaker) next to the patio to neutralize the smell coming from the lift station. It wasn’t until the Peacemaker was installed that they suspected most of the odor was coming from the storm drains.
Phil Peden has done some investigation on the storm drains. He noted there is an illicit connection tying to the north side of the storm box. Phil doesn't believe it is tied to a toilet because there isn't paper in it, but perhaps is related to byproduct or a wash drain/sink coming from elsewhere.
Upland has dye tested their facility and found no evidence that the connection on the north side of the storm box is connected to their facilities. The odor comes on very strong at times to the point where they have to relocate customers.
They notice an increase in odor around times when it rains and storm drain activity increases.
James Hall and I discussed this issue on 10/8/18 and James has started to follow up internally at CBU on next steps.

Street Lights

I couldn't find the location in uReport to report the need for some additional street lights, so I am pointing out the real need here. The area is on 11th street between Rogers and Walnut. This area has recently seen large scale apartment development and there is simply not enough light to make this part of 11th street safe. I would suggest the type of shorter lights that are used around the square in front of businesses on the square would be both attractive and effective. Please feel free to email me if I should report this to another dept. I do think it needs to be attended to as soon as practical before the dark of winter sets in. It would be terrible if another resident was kidnapped due to a lack of light.

The streetlight at the intersection of Woodburn Ave and 15th street is out and has been for several weeks. I have reported this outage several weeks ago since I live at 1020 N Woodburn which is 1/2 block from this light. My house is part of the Maple Heights Neighborhood Association. This area of Woodburn is quite dark. Is there any way that Duke can prioritze the repair of this light? I thought I would ask before I discuss the problem with the HT Hotline, the Mayor's office and Duke. I understand if larger outages would take a larger project, but this is a single light that has up till night be very reliable. Thank you for your efforts to help.
