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.
Potholes, Other Street Repair
213 N Grant ST
- Case Date:
- 7/16/2024
The stretch of Grant Street between Kirkwood and 8th has multiple places that have been patched multiple times over the last few years, making it really bumpy and uneven. It is especially bad close to where the Poplars used to be. If you have a list of streets you are planning on resurfacing, please include those three blocks. There is not one single place such as a huge pothole that needs a big repair - it's just an area that in general is more like cobblestone than paving. Bumpy for bicycles, and maybe also for cars.
Blocked Sidewalk

New BRU burger building has multiple downspouts that drain directly onto the Grant Street sidewalk. I don't believe this is allowed with new construction?
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
213 S Jackson ST
- Case Date:
- 5/29/2024
Hello,
I am writing to inquire about whether the sidewalk on the east side of S. Jackson St. between 3rd and 4th streets can be repaired. As a person with a visual impairment, I have a terrible time walking on the sidewalk in this location, which is in the block where my house is. The sidewalk is very uneven, with tripping hazards throughout its course due to decay. If I didn't have a visual impairment, it would certainly be easier to walk on this part of the sidewalk, but I know that others with no visual impairment also have a difficult time because of the deteriorated surface.
Thank you.

People who are unhoused are leaving their belongings / lots of trash in the alley of our office building. Customers/clients/pedestrians use this alley often.

Rogers Street was closed between 3rd and 4th St. last Week, and I went through the Alley just West of Rogers Street, and there are 4 Cars parked with no License Plates, possibly abandoned, and a Trailer with crap on it parked there that look like they were there when the Garage was built. Someone needs to look into this.

uReport Case #179576Thanks for looking into these issues. The carpet is gone, however the overflowing garbage dumpsters are still there and still overflowing. Why, after all these years that the Hilton has been there, have they now started to put their garbage dumpsters in the walking exit area? And they are always overflowing. They have never been there before until the last couple of weeks or so. They fall on the ground and come open and then we have to step around food stuff everywhere etc, it's nasty and gross.
By the way, this complaint is actually for myself and others.
Street Trees
221 E 12th ST
- Case Date:
- 7/15/2024
A very large tree fell along the back property line of 221 E 12th St striking a mature tree in the right of way where N Lincoln Street dead ends at the railroad tracks. This resulted in a pile of debris in the right of way, a large hanging limb causing some hazard and enough damage to the large tree and the right of way that it may fall causing more damage.
