On June 29th, 2025, the creek to the east of the property flooded, causing 10 apartments to get flooded and multiple cars in the parking lot. We believe that upsizing the culvert downstream to allow more water to pass would solve the issue. Thanks!

My property at [address] flooded again on June 18, 2025, continuing a long-standing pattern of stormwater failures. This area lies within FEMA Zone AE. I have lost two vehicles to flooding and continue to suffer property damage and personal risk due to repeated flood events. The creek that repeatedly overflows lies just off my property line, meaning I have no ability to access, maintain, or control the waterway that causes these floods. Despite this, my home bears the damage. City crews have occasionally cleared culverts, but no long-term mitigation appears to have been performed. This remains a clear public hazard. I am formally requesting inspection and corrective action by the City under Title 13 of the Bloomington Municipal Code, which mandates maintenance, inspection, and prevention of stormwater harm. I have also contacted FEMA Region V to report this issue and request federal documentation. Attached to this report is one photo showing flooding on my property during the June 18, 2025 event, after I had to relocate my vehicle to prevent further damage. A parcel map showing the property location in relation to the adjacent creek is also available upon request. I ask that you please confirm this report is logged and provide a response or timeline for action.

Severe flooding occurred again tonight, June 29, 2025, worse than any prior event here since we moved here 4 years ago. Water rose rapidly and reached homes well beyond the creek. The creek now flows over the entire road southward. I had to warn neighbors up to three houses away to move their cars. I believe the house across the street has flooded. A neighbor called the city Friday (two days ago) asking for culvert clearing, but no one came. No progress has been shared on the engineering case either, despite past assurances. This is a FEMA floodplain, and repeated failures to maintain infrastructure are now causing widespread risk. Photo attached. More documentation available.
