Had an arborist out on another street tree (Japanese Cherry) that needs pruned badly and some dead removed, but is otherwise healthy. While there he looked at a Red Sunset Maple that I thought had a lot of dead in it, just in the last year. His appraisal was that it needed removed and since a street tree he suggested I give the city a call.
Residents at this location have not mowed their grass yet this Spring and it is definitely over the 8 inch length. It is unsightly and sticks out since every other household on the street keeps their grass trimmed.
Grass is a 8 to 12 inches.
Overflowing sanitary sewer draining directly into storm sewer system with direct route to lake Griffy.
Water rapidly bubbling up from sanitary sewer manhole cover, flowing into storm drain.
Duke Energy has refused to remove a large orange cable that is down on the length of my property (3/4 of an acre). They say someone else needs to take care of it, like maybe a cable company. I am concerned that it is dangerous to kids in my neighborhood and I cannot do yard work around it. Moreover, it is in the utility easement. They said to pick it up and see if it is attached to the utility line and I am unwilling to do that because it seems risky. In any case, no utility should be leaving their waste on my property and they should take responsibility for removing it safely.
Spectrum dug a large hole in the yard that hasn't been filled. Afraid that someone will fall in the hole. Tried to contact Spectrum with no response.
Now 1:17 pm and a UPS truck just got stuck on level ground in our cul-de-sac. Still no signs of a plow--can I have your assurance this will get done before a dangerous situation arises here on our street? 812.219.4322
