Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)
1200 E Hillside DR
- Case Date:
- 8/13/2025
Since the construction was completed to add the pedestrian crossing at E Hillside and S Olive, there has been a pile of gravel still sitting in the corner of the intersection that has now spread out and covering the whole street corner. Each time it rains, more gravel and sand are washed into the storm drain. Can this please be cleaned up? If you are on your bike, it's a gravel patch and you slide or skid making it sketchy. If you're walking and it's rained, it sticks to your shoes and is a mess. There's lovely new asphalt under there so it would be nice to use it. Thank you!
Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

Hello!
We still have a very bad sewer odor at 210 E. Gilbert. I first reported this issue in November, 2024. It has not been resolved. We tested the water in the creek, and the ph levels are high, indicating sewage in the water. Here is the report below. Please contact me at 812-322-7997.

My name is Jessica Will and I am a volunteer for the Adopt-A-Stream program.
I usually monitor the Griffy Lake site, but recently learned about water quality concerns in my neighborhood. So, this month, I also tested two sites along the creek running through Matlock Heights and into Cascade Park.
I believe there are strong indicators that our creek contains sewage and that sewage is being fed into Cascade Park. Please see results and observations below.
Site 1 results
pH: 8
Nitrate: 2
Nitrite: 0
Oxygen: 5
Site 2 results
pH: 9
Nitrate: 3
Nitrite: 1
Oxygen: 5
Observations
Elevated pH and nitrate levels may be indicators of sewage or other contamination.
Smells of sewage and detergent were strong at both sites.
Several manholes are placed along the stream, suggesting sewer lines run through the creek.
Please see attached image for site locations (blue pins).
I'm writing to share these results and concerns. I'm also seeking your guidance as to how to get the city involved in additional testing and potential sewage line repair.

The drainage swale needs to be cleaned of debris to assure adequate drainage. Perhaps more so, there is a wall of weeds 5 feet tall needing to be cleaned up. The neighbor across the street had received a city warning of their grass being too tall while the weeds are many times that.
