Drainage pipes that run under the railroad tracks are blocked up again. I cleared as much as I could from the inflows but I can see more material lodged inside. Hope we can get a grate installed at some point to prevent future blockages. Opposite the B-Line trail at lamppost 157. Thanks!
There are two pipes that run under the railroad tracks, opposite the B-Line trail at lamppost 157, that are part of the stormwater drainage system for the surrounding neighborhoods. They both appear to be almost completely blocked up, effectively creating a stagnant pond on the north side of the tracks. I tried clearing debris from around the mouth with a rake, but I believe the blockages are deeper inside the pipes. It would be good if this could get cleaned out before mosquito breeding season begins. It might also be a good idea to install a grate to prevent larger debris from getting lodged inside these pipes in the future. Thanks!
Overflowing sanitary sewer draining directly into storm sewer system with direct route to lake Griffy.
The 4th Street alleyway behind Chipotle on Kirkwood is flooded into the parking lots due to clogged storm drains.
Many storm drains and curbs look like this in neighborhood after winter going into weekend of massive rain. The no leaf collection is a fine idea, but there needs to be follow-up street sweeping or repercussions for people who don’t clear their curbs and drains.
2 Storm drains full of sand
During a phone call about planning questions this morning, I received a request/complaint about the maintenance of the storm inlet at the northeast corner of Reverend Butler Park, at the southwest corner of 10th Street and Fairview Street. The storm inlet regularly gets blocked with branches and other debris, causing flooding in the park, in 10th Street, and in the basement of 615 North Fairview Street. The caller requests that CBU institute a regular schedule of maintenance to keep this inlet clear. Thank you
The concrete retaining wall to the side of this culvert has broken off and fallen onto the stream and bank. First noticed on February 18th but I couldn't get a picture.
The storm drain continues to stay clogged at 16th and Jackson. We have cleaned it 4 times this year. It. Is a drainage design flaw. Everything washes out and gets clogged .
Dry grate with inches of water around it. At least part of this grate is above grade so there is 2-3 inches of standing water after every rain. The sidewalk and yard get soaked by passing cars and there is usually standing water in the intersection that never drains, just eventually evaporates
