Trash bin(s) sitting by street
We are having trouble fitting all of our trash (non-recyclables) into one trash can. As a result, we are having to store trash in our house until the following week's pickup, leading to a horrible smell and bugs throughout the house. I am requesting out residence receives a second trash can for non-recyclable items. Thank you.
Cannot find 219 East 8th St. in order to find trash service and yard waste collection.
Large Weeds in front of home. Tall Grass not cut. Would like a notice to send to owners of property as rentals can’t do anything.
Westside of 215 9th St. - is an old alley that needs repaired or closed down, we are having people park in the yards of 215 & 221 9th Street to make repairs to neighboring houses because the alley is not functional

Retaining wall along alley is collapsing. House is close enough to wall that structural damage could occur. Property owner is the same as 427 N. Washington, which has also recently had a retaining wall collapse, but the owners just piled the cinder block back up and left it that way. That building is not so close to the wall as to create a hazardous situation - it is just an eyesore.
There is water constantly flowing out of the ground on the alley east of 213 E. Cottage Grove about 40 feet north of the street. The water is bubbling up and flowing south to the street then flowing east to Lincoln. When it was cold recently a glacier formed there that was dangerous to walk or drive on. It i now getting swampy there - still dangerous but in a different way. Both City Utilities and property owner were notified, but it is not clear if anyone has determined where the water is coming from. Good to check the meters in the area, e.g., 701 N. Lincoln, 700 N. Washington, 706 N. Washington for any unexpectedly high usage.
Please test the water leaking from this house for coliforms. It smells again. Water is in alley. See previous ureport case.
