Sewer open and actively LEAKING leaving waste on the street and sidewalk
strong sewer smell in neighborhood
Public sewer with an improvised cover without any type security, which gives off bad odors, located in the backyard of my property. I would appreciate the prompt response and solution from you, I have an Autistic son and this represents a danger for him and for the family.
The main sewage line north of my home is backing up (again). This is a recurring issue. The water/sewage level at the access hole has reached the level of the basement, and the basement toilet has started to back up. Please clean out the blockage in the main sewage. I am aware that you had crews there earlier this year to cut back roots, but something is blocking this sewage line now.
We have had water backup every time it rains this spring. This has not been an issue in past years. We have had our main line cleared multiple times and scoped to ensure there are no issues with the line, but continue to get water coming through our flood drain in the basement every time it rains. Please can you sent someone to inspect the main city line on the 8600 block of Clinton Ave S to clear any blockage on your line? We are frustrated with the water backup.
Brownish water is bubbling up in the road and entering the storm system.
A couple months ago during the huge storm with all the flooding something happened in the sewer line in a field behind our house and there was massive sewer flooding and sewage everywhere in the field. We called and a truck came out a couple times and pumped the sewage out of the field and I assume fixed whatever it was that caused the problem. Ever since, we've had a problem with sewage smell in our house. We've had plumbers come out and roto rooter and our lines are clear but the smell persists, particularly when it rains. Can someone please come check and make sure the issue was completely fixed in the sewer line? The manhole cover is behind my neighbors house, 5986 w state road 45 47403.
This specific incident involved a Lime scooter, but I urge you to please ban ALL motorized scooters from Bloomington. My family and I were just coming back from the airport yesterday when we saw a young woman collide head-first into a car in cross-traffic (without a helmet because of course, none of these scooters come with helmets) because her brake stopped working. This was no one's fault but the manufacturers'. But given how much they make, I'm doubtful much will come out of it if she were to take legal action. There have been so many accidents (some fatal, as you know) in so many cities, including ours, due to these companies dumping scooter after scooter onto seemingly every busy sidewalk, and it is completely within your control to ban them here--after all, Indianapolis did. I would like to know your reasons for allowing them to continue to be used in Bloomington when we know how dangerous they have and will continue to be, as long as they are on the streets.. Just how many more accidents must we see and hear about until something concrete is done?
