Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)
206 E Rusgan DR
- Case Date:
- 7/17/2021
When we have a large rainfall, raw sewage bubbles out of my in-laws front yard. They are at the lowest point of the sanitary sewer line by the sewer lift pump. This only happens after a large rainfall. The issue is backflow from the sewer main. Their front yard clean out plug becomes the overflow valve for the neighborhood sanitary sewer. They have had their sewer line inspected and the issue is not a back-up from the house to the street. I walked through a stream of human waste and toilet paper that was bubbling up in their front yard and running down their driveway towards North Walnut this morning. There seems to be a communication between the storm and the sanitary sewers leading to a release of raw sewage in my in-laws front yard that poses a health risk. This has happened three times this spring and poses a health risk. This needs to be repaired correctly.

Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)
2737 E Brigs BND
- Case Date:
- 7/16/2021
The heavy rainfall today has resulted again in flash flooding our backyard. The beehive drain in the City's drainage easement within the Brigs Bend cul de sac in Hyde Park is deteriorating around and above the drain structure, with large sink holes with active water flowing in the ground. There is another sink hole developing to the east of the drain with active water flowing below ground. We believe the storm pipe(s) may be compromised in some way that causes flash flooding to occur, over-filling the north and east swales that subsequently fills our back and side yard with flood water within seconds. We have videos of the drain after the storm today showing water draining through these holes in the ground. We believe this is a dangerous situation, particularly with the transformer at the top of the drain open to the large sink hole. This is at 2737 E Brigs Bend and 2712 Olcott.

Signs nailed to utility poles and signs on many many intersections everywhere. Who is in charge of the code enforcement? WE BUY HOUSES 812-727-4589, they are everywhere. I have complained before and someone in the city government sends them notices and they are out again every year!
Street & Traffic Signs
10th & Walnut Grove @ IU Psychology, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA

North Walnut Grove is now a one-way street going north and around the Geology Building via East Cottage Grove. City Parking occurs on both sides of the Walnut Grove. Many people continue to consider this a two-way street even though no stop sign exists on the corner of 10th and Walnut Grove. A one-way sign pointing north is needed at the corner of 10th and Walnut Grove. Cheers, T.

In this area lots of overgrowth growing on the sidewalk area. You can not see to get onto second street from the alley between 912 and 918 w 2nd. Plus trees are hanging low in that alley and scratching up cars. The sidewalk there needs some repairs done and really needs to be handicapped-accessible. The few will chairs that go through there have a really hard time getting over that. I'm sure there's many other places like that along that road.

Area on B-line near bridge at grimes and Morton has trash everywhere thanks to the homeless illegally living there. Instead of continuing to clean it up for them (been doing that 6+ months) please make them pick it up and dispose of it properly.
