Issue #173247 regarding the beehive drain and drainage ditches failing to drain rainwater on 8/3/2020 was listed at the wrong address (2739) and should be 2737 E Brigs Bends.
The beehive drain at the end of the swail between our properties on Brigs Bend has failed again to drain the large amount of rainwater that fell 8/3/2020. This is the 3rd time we have experienced flooding that not only filled our yard and the side swail (which held water but did not drain to the street as it was designed), but submerged our neighbor's basement entrance. Had the rain not stopped, our basement was also in danger of flooding by a few feet. There is surely something that can be done to fix this problem as it has been occuring over a number of years (found complaints written to the Mayor by previous owners of our home). We ask you send engineers to assess the swails and beehive drain to determine remedies to this continuing problem.
Back yard is a drainage area. Neighbors property has created a bottle neck and the force of the water has exposed Underground utility lines
Big miss dumpster track making!!!!
Trash collectors are failing to completely empty the containers. Two weeks in a row.
My utility bill for account 7559-002 for period 06/01/2020 to 07/07/202 shows water usage of 82000 gallons. In all previous periods for the year, the usage never exceeded 4000 gallons. There were only three people living in the house during this latest billing period. A new water meter was installed during this billing period by your company. There appears to be a problem here. There is no way the water usage being charged for was actually used.
Can we start to have a conversation about the deer population in this town? I walked Sussex Dr yesterday and counted ten deer (!) in 3 groups: doe and 2 fawns, doe and 3 fawns, doe and 2 fawns - all within 2 city blocks!! As we approached the first group using the city sidewalk the mother agressively came after us, stomping her foot. We had to cross the street and walk very slowly to avoid her defensive aggression. This is all well within the city limits. Why should I have to fear them when I'm walking around my own neighborhood? They've already forced several of ourneighbors to install concentration camp fencing to protect their landscaping. Many of our other neighbors have all their landscaping in cages. I like watching deer, too, but come on now - at this point they are pests without a predator to keep them under control. Have we gone too far? Culling is in order. Note: I didn't even mention the costs of hitting one with a car or motorcyle.
Street light in front of 907 W 2nd not functional.
I just had a salesperson from Hawx Pest Control come to my door to try to sell me services. He was unmasked. Not sure exactly how that falls within the city and county ordinances (and state rules), but unmasked sales people coming to the door is not good.
