We’ve lived here for decades. The sewer drain across the street and directly to the west overflow with even an hour of rain. These are old, limestone houses, so most of us park in the street or one car in the driveway. We’re all , mostly,60-75 yr old people. It’s not only so dark outside, if it rains, it’s absolutely brutal trying to navigate the curb, because the water is so deep. Winter is almost here, that’s even worse. I realize we don’t live in the rich neighborhoods, but we are all mostly IU educated people, we pay taxes. Our neighborhood doesn’t get snowplows for days. We are kind, old beatnik people, we have lived here for decades. If could please look at the drains, install a street light, and salt the streets this winter, we would greatly appreciate it. We love living here. Please and thank you.
The grade in the backyard has been altered (trenches, sloping...) and is now affecting neighboring yard with pooling water/runoff during storms. Have before/after photos.
Hello--My mother has 2 rental houses on Olive St. (1502 & 1504) that share a water meter. The 1502 S. Olive has the water meter on that property. What would it take to have 1504 S. Olive it's own meter? How much would it cost?
Each time it rains, this low spot under the bridge fills with water making it difficult for cars to pass. Is there something that can be done to improve the drainage here?
Culvert running North to South at the intersection of Rogers and West Fairway Lane is completely blocked. It causes water to back up completely when it rains.
The location is on the walking path where Fourth Street would be, between Jefferson and Roosevelt. Water is draining from a yard on the north side of the path and down the path. It's been like that for about a week, so I wonder if something is leaking. The intersection visible in the photo is Fourth and Roosevelt.
water pools up by the mailbox of 175 E sunny slopes dr. any time it rains. becomes a huge puddle at least 3 inches deep and across most of the road.
water runoff during rain storms and what the county allows me to do as far as making ditch more attractive and less of an eyesore +work better during downpours.
Every time it rains the culvert in front of/between Bruster’s Ice Cream and Small Talk backs up and floods like in this photo or even worse. The water remains high like this for 12-24 hours later. Each time it is also destroying all landscaping in the area due to high water.
