There is water constantly flowing out of the ground on the alley east of 213 E. Cottage Grove about 40 feet north of the street. The water is bubbling up and flowing south to the street then flowing east to Lincoln. When it was cold recently a glacier formed there that was dangerous to walk or drive on. It i now getting swampy there - still dangerous but in a different way. Both City Utilities and property owner were notified, but it is not clear if anyone has determined where the water is coming from. Good to check the meters in the area, e.g., 701 N. Lincoln, 700 N. Washington, 706 N. Washington for any unexpectedly high usage.
drain cover sunk too deep below asphalt
The asphalt on South Clark was recently repaired (I assume because of a recent water main break), and the new asphalt has sunk in somewhat. It's not clear that it's safe. This is on the street at the end of a driveway between 126 and 128 South Clark Street.
There is a loose person hole cover on the sidewalk at 3rd and Madison, northeast corner,near the entrance to the pedestrian overpass in front of the empty building that used to house a motorcycle store.
Clogged Drains all over the city
Leaves from other properties wash down the hill and covering the sewer drain at the bottom, blocking the path for runoff to enter the drain. A crew had recently come to take care of the blockage, but only removed some of the leaves and poked holes in the remaining pile covering the drain. With a big rainstorm coming soon, and this being a flood-prone area, its unlikely this doesn't result in serious flooding

There is a broken water pipe near the fire hydrant where Circle Drive meets the 1800 block of Southdowns. Work was done previously to try and fix the problem, but the problem has returned or there is a new problem. I walk pass this site regularly, and water is present even when it has not rained for weeks. The pavement is beginning to show the effects of ever-present water.
