Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
609 S Fess AVE
- Case Date:
- 2/18/2025
I reported this last week for the first time. (Case #200875)
I took this new photo this morning, which shows clearly the abundance of water issuing from this drain.
I am confident that this is not simply runoff.
I dealt with a similar complaint about one month ago lodged against a property I help manage for Chickering Rentals at 620 N College.
Turns out, the water was coming from a sink AND a shower inside that house that was connected to a sump pump, and then connect to a downspout extension drain that expelled on the sidewalk. (I identified the issue and the company remedied it the same day it was reported to us.)
It appears that the same thing may be happening at 609 S Fess. There is no explanation as to why so much water would be issuing from a downspout drain at 9am this morning when the temps are less than 10, far below freezing. But you can see in the picture the amount of snow the water has covered and had not yet frozen. I’m guessing if you go out now, it may be frozen. It’s only after it has recently been pumping and expelling that it is still liquid.
The only explanation from what I can tell is it’s coming from inside the property. Either 605 s fess or 609 s fess. I’m guessing that there is a sink or shower inside the house, connected to a sump pump drain, connected to this drain on the sidewalk.
Thanks for your help and attention to this.

There are like five potholes along this road.
Trash
623, 631, 635 N Monroe St
- Case Date:
- 2/5/2025
Trash and recycle containers left in roadway consistently. Automobile traffic including buses and wrecker services using the road create traffic hazards dodging the containers. Auto traffic is constantly speeding down Monroe St. between 10th and 11th. It is very dangerous for pedestrians and car traffic using Cottage Grove. Trash and Recycle Containers need to be kept off of the roadway and the spilled trash from the downed containers needs to be kept cleaned and properly maintained. The landlord is not offering any assistance in keeping area safe and clean. This has been reported previously and has never been resolved correctly.

Hi! One of the security lights are out on the pole on B-Link. We reported it a while back but duke hasn’t repaired. I thought the city might be able to get it done! It’s been out for a long time so it’s pretty dark.
Thank you!!
