three years ago when we had a water main break they tore up this section of my yard and it was under the street. It has never grown grass. Twice I have them come back and put more seed on it asked for soil (which never happened) only sees and straw. This spring I put on 10 bags of garden soil and grass seed. And it had just started to grow. When this rain came and washed it all away. I would like the city to put sod in. after 3 years and 2 to 3 inches of soil and sod still missing it seems to be the only solution!

Street Snow Removal

I hate to put complain about snow removal, but for some reason when they came down Cambridge they piled a whole load of snow over the storm drain and since everything is melting so quickly it's important to have these cleared. I've cleared the others but this is just too much snow for me to clear. Thank you!

The intersection of Sheffield at both Cambridge and Providence Court are experiencing EXTREME flooding. These intersections have struggled before, but in 2020 they seem to be worsening rapidly. I am the association president and was sent the included photos
from concerned (flooded in) neighbors.
Illicit Discharge (Storm Sewers)
401 N Sheffield DR
- Case Date:
- 6/19/2021
As commonly done when the storm drain is cleaned they dump the debris into the yard which ends up killing the grass I was told that when they clean the drains they're supposed to take the debris with them. I'd appreciate it if they would I've been fighting keeping grass growing here and when the water goes fast if there's no grass growing it takes the topsoil. Thank you
Leaf Collection
401 N Sheffield DR
- Case Date:
- 1/12/2024
Leaves from other properties wash down the hill and covering the sewer drain at the bottom, blocking the path for runoff to enter the drain. A crew had recently come to take care of the blockage, but only removed some of the leaves and poked holes in the remaining pile covering the drain. With a big rainstorm coming soon, and this being a flood-prone area, its unlikely this doesn't result in serious flooding

The trucks carrying asphalt are spending down Sheffield Dr. They did it when they were removing the asphalt so I talked to them. Didn't help.
Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)

This is a recurring problem. In the fall every time it rains, all the leaves come down to the lowest part Park ridge East that's in front of my house. The past 2 years they just come and clear out the actual grate and leave a pile of leaves around it. Which means next time it rains in about 5 minutes the grate will be clogged again. Also they pile the leaves up in my yard and kill my grass. These are not my leaves. They're from the street. Last winter we went around this and you guys ended up having to come with a dump truck after you put them all in the street and then the snow plows put them back in the grates and then they had to be pulled away from the drains and then they got plowed back into the grates and we had a ice shield here where it floods every time it rains more half inch. And I ended up coming with a dump truck and six people and carrying off all the leaves. The Men who cleared it this morning said this isn't the way they would do it if they had their choice. I've called the mayor's office and nobody has called me back. I gave you the day to do that. So now I'm reporting it on Ureport.
