Potholes, Other Street Repair

The large sunken patch has asphalt edges that are starting to breakdown. The southbound edge is particularly bad now and the edge hits tires hard as it is crossed and speed limit. I drive this daily so I have noticed the decline. The whole big pay h needs final paving ASAP.

Large pothole on north-bound Walnut north of bypass just beyond McD's - wide and deep enough to do some damage to an axle, given the rate of speed vehicles are usually traveling on that stretch.

The sewage smell coming from Cascades creek is awful. There must be a leak in the system.

Hello! I filed this request yesterday but it says it was filed anonymously, so I just wanted to be sure someone could contact me. It smells very strongly of sewage coming from Cascades Creek at 210 E. Gilbert. We are in the process of purchasing this house and property, and we really don't want to smell it every day! Thank you! :)

There are 4 screws missing from this manhole cover. The smell from the sewage is coming up through the holes and it smells terrible.

Hello!
We still have a very bad sewer odor at 210 E. Gilbert. I first reported this issue in November, 2024. It has not been resolved. We tested the water in the creek, and the ph levels are high, indicating sewage in the water. Here is the report below. Please contact me at 812-322-7997.

My name is Jessica Will and I am a volunteer for the Adopt-A-Stream program.
I usually monitor the Griffy Lake site, but recently learned about water quality concerns in my neighborhood. So, this month, I also tested two sites along the creek running through Matlock Heights and into Cascade Park.
I believe there are strong indicators that our creek contains sewage and that sewage is being fed into Cascade Park. Please see results and observations below.
Site 1 results
pH: 8
Nitrate: 2
Nitrite: 0
Oxygen: 5
Site 2 results
pH: 9
Nitrate: 3
Nitrite: 1
Oxygen: 5
Observations
Elevated pH and nitrate levels may be indicators of sewage or other contamination.
Smells of sewage and detergent were strong at both sites.
Several manholes are placed along the stream, suggesting sewer lines run through the creek.
Please see attached image for site locations (blue pins).
I'm writing to share these results and concerns. I'm also seeking your guidance as to how to get the city involved in additional testing and potential sewage line repair.

This rental house across the street from us has had two mattresses leaned up against the house by the garage for quite a long time being exposed to the elements and likely a habitat for vermin. More recently, someone has dumped a mattress from the Bypass that sits on the steep hill at the end of our Fritz Drive culdesac. Can HAND cite the rental property owner about the mattresses at the residence? And can Sanitation do something to remove the mattress dumped from the Bypass?
