Following the fiber optic utility work done the week of July 23rd we are experiencing bubbling and slow drainage and back flow throughout our house. We have ran snakes through the drains and have found no blockages within our property.
Gravel and broken asphalt that has washout on the street and into their yard, killing their grass.
Rain has washed piles of sand and gravel into the bicycle lane on N. College Ave. from Old State Route 37 to 11th Street. This creates a sliding hazard for bicyclists in close proximity to high-speed motor vehicles.
There are piles of sand and gravel in the bicycle lane on N. College Ave. from Old State Route 37 to 11th Street. This creates a sliding hazard for bicyclists in close proximity to high-speed motor vehicles.
The sand and gravel in the bicycle lane was never removed (from Old State Route 37 to 11th Street), even though it was reported 16 days ago. See Case #204099.
I originally reported piles of sand and gravel in the bicycle lane – from Old State Route 37 to 11th Street – on July 10 (Case 204099). When nothing was done, I submitted another request on July 26 (Case 204511). Six weeks have now elapsed, and the sand and gravel are still there. Why does it take so long for the city to remove bicycling hazards?
Sewage water backing up into my basement. I have checked all of my own plumbing (bathroom in basement; water heater; washer) and everything seems to be in good shape. I have identified water coming (in reverse) out of the drain that services my AC/Furnace. That sewer water then makes its way to my basement floor drain and exits. I have obseved that at heavier usage times (when 2 of us are in the shower and the washer is on) the drain is unable to keep up and thus water ends up on the floor of my basement. This has been happening for about 4-5 days now.
