Recently, when the trash collectors empty the trash from our trashcans they have been leaving the lid on the can open. invariably in will rain and require us to empty the can before putting it away. I've lived here 5 years and this has never happened. Our guys always do a great job collecting the trash. I think a new guy perhaps wasn't trained properly.

Hi,
I live at the end of a cul-de-sac and every week trash/recycling truck goes in reverse (direction of my yard) to complete turn. The back of truck has ran into my yard three times now over the last few months creating a huge divot. I work hard to keep my front yard looking nice. I didn’t complain the first two times. Instead I went out of my way to add dirt, grass seed, and straw. I am pretty fed up now. I would appreciate it if the city repairs damage and prevents this from happening again.
Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)
1105 S Washington ST

The low area of this block (1100 South between Washington and Lincoln) is in the old alley and is first flooded by the overflowing ditch along Davis Street and then water continues to flow up from damage pipe clean outs even when water in the ditch has lowered. The water peaked at about 1 foot higher than shown in the attached picture. There is a storm sewer manhole behind this garage, but no inlets are nearby. Is sanitary sewer infiltration to blame for this? Would fixing the clean outs lead to backups inside homes?

Bryan Park has nice horseshoe pits but there is no sand in the pits, which allows the horseshoes to land and mainly stay in place. The hard ground and a tree root or two causes a well placed throw to bounce 8-10 feet. It throws off the legitimacy of the game and is potentially hazardous when those throws bounce way beyond the pits (if passers by get too close). So some sand or sawdust in the pit boxes would be a great improvement at almost no cost.
Drainage or Runoff
2737 E Brigs BND
- Case Date:
- 7/8/2021
The swale to the west side of our home overfilled as storm water was backed up at the street drains which then flooded the window well to our basement on June 18-19. Although our yard is regularly flooded during heavy storms, the west swale was designed and dug by the City to carry excess water to the street. We believe this swale needs to be dug deeper and lined with rock to stop erosion from occurring to prevent future flooding of our basement. Please send an engineer to evaluate. This problem has been reported several times.

Area under Bridge at Grimes and Morton need dismantled and cleaned up. This has been nothing but a problem in many aspects for 6 plus months. Ps there is a large pile of bicycles at that location. Way more there than the number of people there, I wonder were they got them all?
