Storm sewer grates at SOUTHEAST corner of 3rd & Fess plugged.
Storm sewers, SE corner of 3rd & Fess
The storm drain at the SW corner of E. Sheridan and S. Karen St. is clogged with the grated cover partially off the culvert
There's an open storm drain that consistently becomes clogged and gets backed up when it rains, causing the water to spill over the road and flood our side yard
There is a white pipe in the woods behind our condo that appears to have raw sewage coming out of it.
Street sewer drain beside 3100 Coppertree Drive and the pond is not draining. The opening to the drain is not blocked by leaves and debris so it must be clogged under the street. Street is starting to flood in this area.
Ditches cement collapsing, two places: 1) under main road 2) resident walkway, see picture.
The stormwater grates at West Fourth and Fairview literally had small bushes growing in the sediment. I cleaned them again today-but why oh why can't these be part of regular maintenance? When they are blocked, which is most of the time, the water gets 6-8 inches deep at the alley near my house. I brought this to council last year when the city voted to raise fees and was promised by the director (Vic?) that this would be remedied. I have yet to see a clean up schedule or to see a worker ever clean these grates or clean the streets. I'm sick of it. There seems to be no dearth of resources for curbs and flower boxes and traffic restriction work. Why can't the city maintain the streets and storm sewers in a systematic fashion? What is the schedule for cleaning?
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.
