Water Utility Problems

Case Date:
12/12/2023

I noticed tonight that water is really spouting up out of the sidewalk at the southwest corner of Kirkwood & Washington; it appears to be coming from a small iron plate in the sidewalk that looks like the old style in-ground water meter, but it's smaller than those in front of homes. Just FYI.

Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

319 E 12th ST

Case Date:

See case #186334. Has there been a coliform test done on the malodorous effluent that is seeping out of the SE corner of the yard at this rental address and covering the sidewalk making it impossible to avoid? Or is an obvious sewage leak that has been present for months not a concern of the City? We haven't had a cholera outbreak in awhile now - perhaps that is the goal (?)

Them kids done set up another lemonade stand and the spat out gum on the sidewalk is unbearable. When I was young we got spanked regular and I think these kids ought to be spanked real hard for messing up the sidewalk like that.

Blocked Sidewalk

Hi - this is follow-up to ureport #186407. It is the sidewalk on the west side of College Ave just south of 14th street, near the train bridge. First off, thanks for your prompt attention! Unfortunately, the sidewalk is still not its full width. The historical sidewalk is about 8ft wide, and I believe pedestrians should enjoy the full width that was provided decades ago. I drew a red line on the photo to show where the edge of the sidewalk is. Everything to the right of that red line is vegetation and dirt that is encroaching on the sidewalk. What is to be done? I have done this work myself at the 11th&Fairview train bridge. I can do between 25 and 50 linear feet of this kind of work per hour with a shovel. This would generate nearly a yard of waste dirt which will need to go somewhere. An ideal solution would also stabilize the hillside but please don't let the perfect get in the way of the good. Please forward this to Director Wason as that sort of investment will require some leadership. I have watched work crews use line trimmers to move dirt and sand, which seems like a failure to provide the tools for the actual task they face. If pedestrians aren't worthy of this sort of consideration from the city, please let me know. Thanks! - Greg 812-391-3535

This racecar track has been left on the sidewalk for several days. Toys at this residence are normally a minor problem, but I had to walk in the road to give room for a dog and its owner to get by.

Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

Delta Phi Epsilon, 818 E 3rd St, Bloomington, IN 47406, USA

Case Date:

Probably a lateral sanitary line but could be a supply line. The sidewalk on the west side of Woodlawn has been perpetually wet for several weeks ever since the sorority there had some landscaping done using large, dirt-moving equipment. The wet spot is alongside the retaining wall on Woodlawn, ~20 sidewalk sections south of Third Street.
