Dry grate with inches of water around it. At least part of this grate is above grade so there is 2-3 inches of standing water after every rain. The sidewalk and yard get soaked by passing cars and there is usually standing water in the intersection that never drains, just eventually evaporates

During heavy rains, we have been having sewage backing up into our basement. I suspect the cause may be rain water entering the sewer system through this manhole.
Water Utility Billing Problems

Hello -
We are submitting a complaint against the City of Bloomington Utilities for the following reasons:
1. We were notified in February 2024 of a 40 g/h increase in our flow, while we were out of the state on vacation, via a door tag, not a notice to our email or even a phone call, which are on our account, a door tag.
2. We have called Customer Support three times to get this resolved, as we have not identified a leak inside the house nor outside the house between the reader and the house, which we utilized Aim To Please as our contractor to check everything in the house.
3. The number of times we were told to check our toilets and got brushed off was disrespectful and patronizing, as we utilized Aim to Please to check the toilets via a Dye test and there was no dye leakage after 20 minutes in any toilet.
4. Our March (5), April (4), May (7), and June (4), and July (5) are higher than all the months prior a full year to date. However, it's not a constant leak, they are sporadic. I.e. - while I was putting my kids to bed at 9pm on Friday, June 14th, there was a spike of 400 g/h for under an hour and then it went back down. There was nothing running in terms of faucets or outside spigots.
5. Even with all of our work on our end, and the conversations with CBU Customer Support, the fact that CBU won't consider that we have a malfunctioning reader, is simply astounding. To not even consider the possibility of it, and have a denialist mentality does not, to me, show customer support or attention.
We would appreciate a review and investigation of our reader and our usage reports to better understand these spikes. Additionally, we would appreciate a review of our billing because we are now paying quite a bit more for water than we did for the first two years of our ownership of this house.
Please contact me for further conversation and happy to meet someone at the property.

We recently bought this house. When the plumber installed new toilets, he suggested I ask the city to check the water pressure. On June 12 I called about this, but have not heard back. Please advise. Thank you. John Scott Long 3855 E Brighton Ave 812-322-2940
