Water form the neighborhood is flowing into my yard causing floods and interior damage once saturated. I have a lot of video evidence. I am trying to repair damage on my own, but I can't keep up.
Our neighborhood has had major issues with storm water for several years now, and we'd like to have someone come assess the area to see if there is a breakdown in the storm drain system in this area. The flooding issue begins between 3525 E. Third St. and 3520 E. Park Ln., and builds to the west along the property lines. During times of heavy rain (like we had over the weekend), many of the neighborhood back yards become flooded, and water tends to sit for several days afterwards. I'm sorry I didn't get a picture of the water during the rains yesterday, but will work to submit one during the next rainfall. There appears to be a perfectly adequate stormwater drain in front of 3508 E. Park Ln, but there doesn't appear to be a ditch that will carry the water from between our homes to that stormwater drain. Some help would be greatly appreciated, as we have had water backup in our basement in years past from this issue. Thanks very much for your prompt attention and help. Best regards, Dave & Eileen Henthorn
The culvert where the creek from "The Fields" crosses under Moores Pike is beginning to fail. The shoulder plus a few inches into the roadway on the south side of the street is beginning to collapse. Past efforts to shore up the roadway have involved dumping rip-rap to prevent undercutting of the roadway but this might be more serious. I noticed this in the evening and could not get a decent photo.
I am enclosing more pics
Third picture. The holes measure over 3 feet wide. We would appreciate if the city will get this problem fixed soon. Thank you.
North corner of Dodds and Palmer. Hole in street where drainage pipe under the road has rusted through.
It is nice to have the sewer drains cleared. But they leave the leaves next to the drain and the next time it rains it clogs the drains immediately. It also kills the grass. All for drains at this intersection actually 6 trains at this intersection have a pile of leaves next to them. It was my understanding that those who cleared the storm drains were also supposed to take the debris with them. Please advise.
There are several sewer vents on S Hathaway Ct. and Cathcart that have no covers and some sharp exposed edges
excessive water runoff from South shoulder creates large patch of ice when cold. there doesn't seem to be appropriate drainage. rest of the street is fine
I am a resident at Patterson Pointe, 454 S Westplex Ave. The construction at the site directly east of the apartment building has begun with earthwork. A pit has been dug on the site and now contains green water. I don't know where the water has accumulated from, it's more than rain or runoff. Will the city check the water for contamination and make sure it is pumped out and disposed of properly? You don't need to contact me about this, I just wanted to make sure someone at the city is aware. Thank you.
