A cover for a water or gas line continually pops up in the street. If cars should hit it, it could cause tire damage or more. This has been reported previously but has not been resolved.
A cap for water access has been coming out and creating a possible problem for drivers. I have reported this a number of times and fixed it many times, including this morning. The next time, I'll take the cap home so that it can't cause problems.
The Nail Studio on the East side was dumping their cleaning solution into the parking lot. Eventually, this detergent will wash into our waterways. Our MS4 investigated this illegal dumping. At the time we did not see any liquid on the pavement or see evidence it was entering our drain system. We conducted education to the Nail Studio and informed them that dumping any industrial/commercial waste on the ground was prohibited by municipal code.
The new sidewalks on the northwest corner of Sare and Rogers have been badly damaged from utility trucks driving on them. There could have been some plywood or metals plates used to cover the walks to protect them.
There is a road drain across the street from me, North side, and I notice the drain there has the beginnings of cavitation, which if it goes, could be dangerous
Cavity forming alongside water meter in ROW close to SW corner of lot.
City pick up truck with light blue plate 63998 turned right on red from east bound atwater to south bound woodlawn. People were in and approaching the crosswalk to cross atwater. Happened at about 9:28AM, July 18th, driver looked like a female with brown-ish hair.
On Saturday, May 29, 2021, this City-owned site was producing a lot of loud construction noises after 10:30pm. The noises included audible beeping from trucks or equipment backing up and loud banging noises, possibly the sound of either dump truck tailgates slamming on the bed of the trucks or some sort of excavator hitting the ground repeatedly. City ordinances only allow construction noises up to 10pm. Can the City be a better neighbor and not produce these loud, annoying noises at such late hours of the day?
When we already have a flood watch, and now warning, please don't have City staff fill up their Vacall water trucks with a hydrant without a tight seal, spraying water for a long period of time and creating even more of a wet flooded mess for the yard.
A collapsed metal drainage culvert is a risk of injury to people and animals walking on the north side of E Morningside near N Smith Road. A 7 inch wide hole in the pavement above the east end of the 60 year old metal culvert is becoming larger. A similar culvert collapse near the west end of this culvert was partially repaired in recent years. Best practice may be to replace the decayed metal with plastic or other durable material.
