There has been a couch in front yard for 2 weeks.
Tenants are parking in the alley that runs behind 1000 and 1002 East Atwater. This makes it difficult for their trash removal truck to get in the alley. As a result trash cans are overflowing and trash is now in the street. In the past vehicles that were parked in the alley were ticketed. Is this no longer happening?
Water/sewage is coming up into our house from the street. This happened a month or two or three ago, right after the city did some work on the main in the street (2 large spots visible in picture). A plumber confirmed both times that there is no backup between the house and the street, and he got the drain snake/declogger to go into the hole (white on the left side of the driveway/this image near the bottom of the driveway) 21 feet (I have a video, separately showing the measurements) or more both times. This time he wasn't able to get the hole unclogged in the street, so it is an urgent situation for us. We are pretty sure the guys who dug in the street to remain a main caused the issue because we never had a problem before then, and the first backup into the house was a couple of weeks after that this summer. We would like the city to come scope it and fix it ASAP please. The plumber suspects that the jackhammering and digging that the big trucks did in the street caused a partial or full collapse, given where the backup seems to be from what he can tell. Please let us know when you might be able to look at it. We have little kids and really need to be able to use water in the house. Thank you!
The vegetation obstructing the sidewalk on the Maxwell side of the house has been successfully cut down. But the groundcover still occupies about a third of the width of the sidewalk. Please ask the homeowner to edge or pull up the weeds so that we can use the full width of the sidewalk on Maxwell.
The water has a similar taste as it did last September.
The stop sign is partially covered by shrubs and they need to be trimmed. People run this stop sign all the time. Please make sure the stop sign is fully visible. On woodlawn headed NORTH at E Maxwell Lane and Woodlawn intersection.
Couch in front yard. 4 cars parked on the lawn along Faculty Ave.
Musty tap water, as bad as its ever been. I have a .5 micron carbon filter on my kitchen sink and the awful smell taste still gets through. Been this way for several days now. Something is up.
Trash is in unclosed commercial bins stored on sidewalk along the University St. side of this boarding house.
