I’m writing with deep concern about the potential impact of the fiber optic project at our home at 809 S. Stull Ave.
On Nov. 25, a work crew moved heavy equipment onto our property and proceeded to operate with no advance warning or permission. We are currently out of town for the holiday, and a neighbor took the attached photo. We are astounded not only at the trespass, but also at the potential damage. We just spent significant money and time purchasing and planting bushes and several trees in the area where the crew was working. We are concerned also about our recently laid sewer line, and about the drilling of holes (see photo) directly next to a very large pin oak tree. We won’t be home and able to assess any damage ourselves until Dec. 8 but are anxious to hear from you ASAP about 1) recourse if there is damage to our property, and 2) city policy regarding work crews entering private property without warning or authorization.

Large (maybe 5' by 3') hole in the street was recently filled with asphalt, but the new asphalt lies below the level of the road at the edge of the hole. The bump is quite harsh to drive over

Is First Street open between Rogers and College? There are barricades but it seems like they move every day, And there are vehicles often doing u turns or trying to turn onto a street that is closed. Feels like there needs to be some better signage so people know what's going on.

There is a large construction caution sign that was left standing next to the sidewalk by the fiber optic installation crew. It has been here now for over 2 weeks without any obvious work still going on.

Fiber co. Cut sidewalk. Someone came to patch with asphalt. Asphalt sunk immediately. Looks like a significant hole in sidewalk. Water meter appears to be affected as well - tilting towards the hole (did not use to).

On the south side of Allen St, between Walnut and Washington, someone cut a hole in the street and filled it with small rocks that are just spreading everywhere. They also upended the adjacent sidewalk panel and tried to just lay it back down again. Maybe the fiber company?

822 S Fess again. The gigabit people are at it again. End of driveway and into neighbor. Left a hole and trash, plastic debris and empty water bottle. Just abandoned with a hole by neighbors tree at end of drive way. Please get these people under control. So they have left this as if they started digging, changed their mind and left. Then they dug up my front yard and then on Monday, a water main rupture from their digging. ALL other installation has been down the alley WHERE the power lines run. Please respond. Issue #3.
