Shortly after driving on my street, where there is construction on traffic calming devices, I had a flat tire. There is a screw in it from where the construction crews have been working. We would like to know the process for getting reimbursement for repairs. We will have to replace the tire on a car we have had less than a month because of this. We also would ask that crews clean up the area and remove any hazards; there have been cones (and screws, apparently) in the way of traffic on South Weatherstone Lane. Thank you!

Good morning, there are 2 enormous pot holes directly in front of our 2 parking spaces and have been watching them continue to increase in depth and size (probably primarily due to the trash trucks that drive right over them twice a week) since we moved in here a year ago. I haven't complained about them previously, but back in November 2024 I had to get help from St. Vincent De Paul to help replace CV joints, ball joints, multiple other parts and ended up having to replace my front axle, as well, directly after having to drive through these potholes to get into our parking spot for a total of approximately $995. St. Vincent De Paul was very generous and helped us by paying $500 towards our bill and I paid the balance. In addition, a few weeks ago, after scraping bottom once again on the Southern most of these two potholes. I ruptured a brake line, lost control of my vehicle temporarily and had to spend another $395. last month to repair that. Unfortunately I am on a fixed income and this caused us to be late again on our rent. I just cannot afford to not say anything now as I am a disabled single mother trying to get my youngest through college at IU Bloomington. Could someone please respond letting me know if there is any reimbursement for damages or recourse I might have for these multiple damages to my vehicle and when approximately these holes might get some attention? I do have receipts from the repairs. Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter and your reply to my inquiry as to reimbursement or recourse. Twice in the past 4 months I have had to be late on my rent to continue to have a vehicle to secure food for my family as I am on SSDI and the sole income in our household and am trying to keep my rent current and credit up so as to qualify for a mortgage again in the near future.

On Friday, July 12, a crew from JE Reedy pushed through my double locked gate to clear a path so they could install fiber overhead (in a neighborhood that already has fiber). They seriously cut at least 3 trees: 2 are trees that get no taller than 15 feet, and a pine that was near the pole they needed to climb (Duke has cleared this area for years and never had to hack the pine). They said that they came by on Thursday but they did not leave any notice that they would be working in my backyard so they were trespassing. They could have done their work without destroying my fence row but that would have involved creativity and a little effort. I am sickened, angry and sad and want someone in the City to see this mess and come up with a way to make this right. I have several photos but could only upload one.
