Storm drainage is blocked

Case Date:

The northwest corner of our yard has been inundated with water for the past several weeks. There is standing water as well as super-saturated ground. The water appears to originate from the utility strip between properties toward Clover. This does not appear to be related to rain or storm events. The water drains to the south, but the amount present doesn't lessen. This makes us think there is a leak in either a water main or a storm drain or another source. The saturation leads to worries about the mature trees along the property line coming over. The ground is boggy and one cannot walk or mow in this area. Your attention to this will be appreciated.

Hello, I reported water coming into our yard before.(uReport Case #177856) Your answer was that it was probably coming from neighbor's pool. That pool is to the southwest and they do indeed drain it into the yard, but it is not the source of water coming from uphill, close to properties on Clover on the northwest side of the yard. The water comes from somewhere close to 400 Clover Lane. As the property line and utility easement are wooded and covered with vegetation it is difficult to tell where the water originates, but it is clearly outside of our yard. I would be glad to discuss this and my concerns with you: 812-955-8220; or to meet with someone and show them where and what the problem is. Thanks, Ginny Richey

Water runoff (consistent, day to day problem), from nearby/ adjoining (possibly restaurant/fine dining businesses) is a visual/ sanitary problem to pedestrians.

two properties above us the road all the water on the road goes into the yard comes down toward are house crossing on road since it is all down hill into the neighbors beside us into my yard. it drains.in front of my garage and runs on my . about 3 to 4 inches of water on my side walk .side walk. also the road south of us also runs in neighbor east of my house also runs runs to my house. South of me there is a a large building about 40 feet long that doesn't have gutters it runs down across the road on neighbors which in turn runs toward my house. II have pictures to send in the mail which I wi8ll need to send you because I don't know how to send them in the mail. I have spent 400.00 to put a ridge to keep from running in my yard. I also had a drain dug in my drive about 4 feet from the fence running about 2 foot deep running toward the drain in the back of my house that cost me 650.00. I will write on the back of the picture that will explain what they are for when I send them thank you and I will write on the back . Also in front of garage my small car is on ramps so the water will not get my brake shoes wet and i have to not park my other car about7 feet from the garage so i can;t park a car behind my car. Thank you for taking the time to read John Arthur

Received this comment on report I submitted in early Sept: We investigated the area and didn't find anything we believe to be a main leak. There are a few residential fish ponds in this area that may be getting drained. We will continue to monitor the situation. Sent notification to Emily Tate, Anonymous I am still seeing this street spot as wet, just in the one place as from the attached picture I sent in the original report. I am happy to watch and document this as we head into freeze and thaw conditions. I believe it will cause cracking and some loose asphalt. I really don't think this has anything to do with residential fish ponds? The wet line has a definitive start line. Thank you

Two large storm drains in my back yard have significant erosion around them. The worse one (pictured) has a foot wide by 5 foot long by 2 feet deep hole next to it where stormwater is entering this hole rather than entering into the drainage system. I'm afraid to mess with it myself, so I was hoping that the city can either take care of it or give me guidance on what to do.

Due to the excessive rain we are experiencing this spring the concrete support for the culvert that crosses the road adjacent to our property has collapsed.

The Johnson Creamery flooded again. I am a tenant in the building and after talking with the management company of the building, they indicated that the reason why the building floods regularly now is because of the way the drainage is designed. We walked around the back of the building (north side) and saw drainage that clearly can not handle the amount of run off coming from between 8th and 11th st buildings and parking lots. I'd like to request the city evaluate the options so this can be fixed. This building now floods several times a year, ruins furniture, initiates insurance claims, and disrupts business operations like mine. I will be unable to meet with clients and perform my job for several weeks while the building is cleaned out again.
