Customer said that there was no swale, and water runs over the sidewalk into his driveway.
Major sediment backup in under street culvert and culvert itself. Needs to be sucked up to allow for storm water flow
Customer said a large amount of water was coming up between her drive and the street.
Water is flowing over the pavement.
Mark James with Active environmental called and said he had hit a City water line.
There is water constantly flowing out of the ground on the alley east of 213 E. Cottage Grove about 40 feet north of the street. The water is bubbling up and flowing south to the street then flowing east to Lincoln. When it was cold recently a glacier formed there that was dangerous to walk or drive on. It i now getting swampy there - still dangerous but in a different way. Both City Utilities and property owner were notified, but it is not clear if anyone has determined where the water is coming from. Good to check the meters in the area, e.g., 701 N. Lincoln, 700 N. Washington, 706 N. Washington for any unexpectedly high usage.
Water is running down the road.
Grass is growing around the storm drain and water is not flowing into it.
Storm sewers are blocked by debris on the streets causing water backup on the road. The street needs to be cleaned and debris removed from storm grates.
The water department dug this hole in my yard along with another huge hole earlier this summer. The other was filled and reseeded but this never was.
