Hello I’m researching possibly pouring a concrete slab out my back door & I have a couple questions that I hope will help get me going in the right direction. 1. Who do I need to contact regarding this to get started? The city/county? The HOA? 2. My back door is close to the property line & a large drain. How big could a concrete slab be? Is it even possible to do because of property line & drain. How do I find out if it is possible? Thank you TJ McMurray 1567 W Castle Ct Bloomington, IN 47403
The issue is a fire hydrant on 4319 Cricket Knoll Dr. in Gentry Estates. While it doesn't really look like it sticks out that much from the sidewalk (you'll see by the attached photos) as there is a cutout. But if you're blind and your can sway your cane under it and you're moving over to avoid the tree branch, then you can actually not know it's there. The complainant has hit it with the side of his leg three times and has fallen to the sidewalk.
This work was done 2 months ago (I'm not even sure what they were doing). My 15 year old boxwood hedges were destroyed, exposing the electrical box to the street, and not replaced. And there is a deep, exposed hole that gets deeper each time it rains, because it was not properly filled or re-seeded.
A hole has developed alongside the storm sewer drain (inlet). The pavement above the hole has begun to crumble and sink.
After the heavy rain on 2/7/19 a pipe in the alley behind 1107 S Washington St continued to push water up even after the water level in the Davis street ditch went down.
The storm drain at the corner of E Hillside and S Olive is clogged once again. This is due to the all of the runoff from gravel driveways south and uphill of the drain. This is a repeat problem everytime it rains. Please clear the drain and work on a longterm solution.
Water overflowing rapidly. I am not sure what kind of sewer this is, I just assumed it is overflow from recent rain.
3635 S. Bainbridge Dr. All three storm inlets during flash flooding events aren't able to keep up with the water demand which then sends water down our driveway. About 3 years ago a third drain was installed to help mitigate the issue but hasn't worked the way it was intended. We left for the weekend for a funeral this past weekend and the drains became clogged which then sent water down our driveway and flooded the basement for the second time this year. First time happened in November due to leaves and the leave pickup program overwhelming our storm inlets. We had a swell put in to mitigate the driveway water and it has worked well. However, when the storm drains clog, the swell is overwhelmed. Please help.
The small storm water drain at the bottom of the hill on the Southwest corner of Coolidge and Bryan often gets clogged and our home at 2317 S. Bryan St. ends up collecting the water and trying to manage it in our driveway, which ends up in flooding in our driveway, our garage, on our back deck, and in the basement.
