The City paved the streets in this area. This caused the street to be raised causing the water to run off onto his property. The water backed up to his property and has caused his basement to flood. The cost to clean up this mess is approximately $6,000.00. He doesn't want to clean it up and then have the same thing happen again the next time it rains.
WATER STANDING AROUND SEWER CLEAN OUT. WANTS TO KNOW IF IT IS SURFACE WATER.
This is an area that the Engineering Dept. has received several calls on since the intersection of N. Adams Street and W. Vernal Pike was improved. This was a Redevelopment Project that was done approximately 2-3 years ago. I let Bob Woolford, HAND, know about the complaint. He was over the project. The residents complain that the water does not run-off since the work was done. The water stands at the intersection.
Water spewing out of sewer main.
Ms. Sheldon called to complain about water problem in her basement. 3 weeks. ago (approx. 1/23/99) CBU was called because of water backup in their basement. Tom Staley came out after the water receded. She was very upset because Tom Staley was very rude and even got up in her face and talked very loudly. A plumber was called. He found that there was a backup in the sewer line and called the City. Now they have 12" of raw sewage in their basement and cannot live at home.
