Sewage spewed out of pvc near sidewalk.
Sewage spewed out of pvc near sidewalk.
SE corner of lot just west of alley and close to the sidewalk there is a medium-sized, water-meter pit that is uncovered. Lid is not around, apparently. Dangerous trip hazard at night, and animals could fall in.
CBU removed portion of sidewalk to fix water line. Sidewalk never repaired.
Water is running down side of the house from the sidewalk in front.
This is my second report on this issue: Water meter protruding approx. 2.5 in the *middle* of the sidewalk near 438 W Somersbe Place (county). I have seen numerous people trip and one person fell but fortunately was not seriously injured. It is only a matter of time until someone is. The liability is yours.

See case #185515. Issue continues - sidewalk is periodically wet again near SE corner of lot, likely untreated sewage.
Customer said that the sidewalk in front of her home is sinking and the sidewalk is falling in.
A year ago the fire hydrant on the north west corner of my lot was changed out for another one and 4 squares of concrete were taken out and replaced. No one came back to d repair the damage done to the lawn and fill in with dirt and plant grass. There is an 8-10 inch drop off the edge of the sidewalk where someone could break their ankle if they fell off the sidewalk. The fire hydrant is unusually tall as it stands on top of a giant pipe that sticks out of the ground 10-12 inches. I don’t believe this was some of your best work.
Customer said that there was no swale, and water runs over the sidewalk into his driveway.
Mr. Ogle called in to report that a sidewalk was installed improperly and is creating storm drainage issues for his residence and his neighbor's residence.
