Drainage or Runoff
4315 N Kinser PIKE

Reporting again as I have not heard from anyone about this issue. There is no sign that the development has done anything to fix this issue. In addition they have increased their work behind our house including starting work with large tractors just before 6:30am. It's very loud and was reported to the police.
Previous information already sent:
Behind our house (to the west) is the Kinser Ridge development. After their work moving around dirt last week (they started on Monday 5/18) and then the resulting rain has inundated the silt fence and it is no longer standing and rainwater mixed with silt pours over when it rains.
The worst was Wednesday 5/20 where the silt poured down our driveway, flooded our garage and left 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch of silt in many parts of our driveway once the rain stopped. There has been no change in the silt fence despite my husband (Tom Grano) reporting to the city in multiple departments and speaking with the foreman of the development. Today (5/26) the development is once again moving around dirt in that area. The silt fence needs to be repaired and a more permanent solution needs to be found as soon as possible, especially with a high probability of rain the next few days.
Our house is not the only property that has been impacted as the west lane of Kinser Pike flooded on Wednesday 5/20 and the silt could be seen as far down as Bayles.

The taste/smell in the water supply has been a problem for years. The last time I brought up the subject to the City, they sent someone out to flush the water line--turn on a nearby fire hydrant. Of course, after a few days the water returns to smell/taste. So, what is being done to solve the problem? What is the position of the Health Department?

Black flakes in my water that leave a greasy residue. I last reported this issue on March 16, 2026.
The issue is not consistent but seems to pop up randomly which makes it a threat as it is easy not to notice when I am potentially showering with it, washing with it, and even drinking it.
Photo shows the black residue left after filling my bathtub with water only. Quarter for scale.
Note: I re-submitted to include my address
