New hydrant has deep erosion ditch that is hazardous
New hydrant has deep erosion ditch that is hazardous
Our yard was dug up this winter probably to access that pipe, but it’s been left with just dirt all over our grass and our sidewalk
Should this be corrected to avoid falls or other problems?
Several weeks ago the new fiber cables were buried along E Hillside Dr. I was working from home when one of the workers knocked on the door and asked if I had water. I did, and so did the neighbors. The worker said he ran into water, but if we all had service, then he wasn’t going to worry about it. I didn’t think anything of it. Now, we have noticed there is water coming up out of a spot along the sidewalk. I realize the picture is not really telling you much, but it’s like a small mud pit and water is coming up out the ground there. This is within the 10’ strip that the City of Bloomington owns along this section of Hillside.
A tree feel from 1307 E Davis Street across the street and is blocking an important drainage area across the street that is extremely important for the downhill run off.
A person trimming trees at this location pulled down wires connected to utility pole 1408H - the disconnected wires are in the tops of the tree on the north side of where Wilson dead ends into a cut through and the other end is lying in the alley getting caught on cars on the south side of Wilson going towards the referenced utility pole - the person in question is remodeling a home on Henderson that back up to the alley
My name is Steve Egyhazi segyhazi@iu.edu and I live at 3922 S Woods Edge Bend in Bloomington 47401, cellphone 812-340-0759. I am hopeful this form is the correct place to submit this concern: On or before 2/21/2020 I noticed that my front-yard sewer plate thing is all ripped up and askew like I've never seen it before and it just don't seem right. Here's a photo album you can see for yourself. https://photos.app.goo.gl/zojVXZeV3LNPraB17 I'm afraid of critters and lawn mowers etc messing this up even further. I did not do this and hopeful you can correct it or make sure the subcontractor that did do this can correct it. Thanks for any follow up by phone, sms, or email, I appreciate it. Regards, Steve Egyhazi, homeowner.
This work was done 2 months ago (I'm not even sure what they were doing). My 15 year old boxwood hedges were destroyed, exposing the electrical box to the street, and not replaced. And there is a deep, exposed hole that gets deeper each time it rains, because it was not properly filled or re-seeded.
The issue is a fire hydrant on 4319 Cricket Knoll Dr. in Gentry Estates. While it doesn't really look like it sticks out that much from the sidewalk (you'll see by the attached photos) as there is a cutout. But if you're blind and your can sway your cane under it and you're moving over to avoid the tree branch, then you can actually not know it's there. The complainant has hit it with the side of his leg three times and has fallen to the sidewalk.
Hello I’m researching possibly pouring a concrete slab out my back door & I have a couple questions that I hope will help get me going in the right direction. 1. Who do I need to contact regarding this to get started? The city/county? The HOA? 2. My back door is close to the property line & a large drain. How big could a concrete slab be? Is it even possible to do because of property line & drain. How do I find out if it is possible? Thank you TJ McMurray 1567 W Castle Ct Bloomington, IN 47403
