Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)
213 E Cottage Grove AVE
- Case Date:
- 2/16/2024
See case #187164: Water is still flowing from house. The stream begins in the alley coming from the NE corner of the house, then moving south down the alley to Cottage Grove. The sewage water then travels east along the north edge of Cottage Grove to Lincoln. The sewage water then forms a pool on the NW corner of Lincoln/CG. The sewage water then crosses CG and travels south along the west edge of Lincoln until it meets 10th Street, where it crosses Lincoln to the NW corner of Lincoln and 10th, where is has formed a second pool. The property owner claims there is no water coming from their house. Please test the water for microorganisms and when the tests come back positive, inform the property owner of their obligations if they want to continue to rent out houses that used to be people's homes.

Water Utility Billing Problems
214 E 15th ST
- Case Date:
- 11/14/2023
Two most recent bills have charged us for using 4,000-5,000 gallons of water, and therefore charging roughly $100. The bill for September was $106.42 and the bill for October was $93.15. This is for a two-person house that uses the same, if not less, of an average amount of water per month. I called customer service after the first bill, but the lady I spoke with was not very helpful and recommended we wait until our next bill. According to her sources, any leakage or problem that resulted in such a high bill seemingly "fixed itself" and she did not provide any other alternatives. Come to find out that the next bill is just as high and we have no choice but to pay (again) with no resolutions. Apparently, Bloomington Utilities does not provide any services to check for any leaks or problems.

Water from the tap tastes like dirt and mold, even after Brita filtering. Hot water coming from the tap smells worse than cold water.
Drinking this disgusting water is nauseating. Can more PAC be added to rid the water of MIB/geosmin?
Water affects everything we do: drinking, cooking, making good coffee (seriously!). It’s more than an “aesthetic” issue and future reports should avoid minimizing what many experience as a true issue. Taste and odor of drinking water matter, too.

The water is tasting and smelling bad again. Just curious if it is the algae again or if it is something else. If it is the algae again how long will it take for water to be "normal" again? I am using a filter and still it is un-drinkable.
Thank you for all you do! :)

The bike path on the side of Arlington Ave. between 17th and North st. has some very rough sections and pot holes that hold water making navigation difficult and dangerous after a storm.

After my refridgerator ice maker stopped working and the water dispenser slowed, I discovered that the water line to fridge was releasing water filled with what appear to be dirt particles. These were clogging the refridgerator water filter, causing the above-mentioned problems. Currently, this appears to be the only spigot with water quality issues, but it is still a concern.
