My wife and I live nearby and pass by this area on our walk to Bryan park. For well over a year, I have noticed this section of the sidewalk between 609 S Fess and 605 S Fess is consistently wet, even when there has been no rain/snow. When the temps fall and stay below freezing, ice accumulates on this area of the sidewalk, as it is doing right now. I am convinced that there is either a natural spring, or a sump pump inside either 605 or 609 S Fess that is connected to a storm water run off drain that expels on the sidewalk. The water is issuing from three slit holes at the bottom of the brick wall outside of 609 S Fess, where that brick wall terminates and meets the limestone wall for 605 S Fess. 609 S Fess is managed by Sarge Rentals. 605 S Fess is managed by Wininger Real Estate.

Hi! It looks like there’s a water leak in this alley. A lot of water is flowing from the ground and trickling down the street. Thanks!

Subject: Concern About Clogged Storm Drains on 1st Street Dear Bloomington Town Official, I am reaching out regarding an ongoing issue with leaves clogging the above-ground grated storm drains along 1st Street, between Henderson and Grant Streets. I previously reported this concern a few weeks ago, but the problem has reappeared due to the continued accumulation of leaves. The situation seems to have worsened following Bloomington's policy change to no longer collect unbagged leaves. As a result, many residents are no longer raking, and the town has become noticeably untidy. These clogged drains pose a significant risk of flooding when it rains, creating potential hazards for our community. I kindly ask for prompt attention to clear these drains and consider ways to address the broader issue of leaf accumulation to maintain the town’s cleanliness and prevent future drainage problems. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Drain in front of this property is blocked and the street flooded last time it rained. Drain needs unblocking and the flood debris needs clearing up

Received this comment on report I submitted in early Sept: We investigated the area and didn't find anything we believe to be a main leak. There are a few residential fish ponds in this area that may be getting drained. We will continue to monitor the situation. Sent notification to Emily Tate, Anonymous I am still seeing this street spot as wet, just in the one place as from the attached picture I sent in the original report. I am happy to watch and document this as we head into freeze and thaw conditions. I believe it will cause cracking and some loose asphalt. I really don't think this has anything to do with residential fish ponds? The wet line has a definitive start line. Thank you
