Dear Sir/Madam,
This is a request regarding stormwater runoff and property flooding.
This a formal request for assistance and an inquiry regarding significant stormwater runoff impacting our property located at 4244 E Stephens Drive. We reside at 3625 E Tamarron Dr. and are writing to you concerning repeated flooding at our aforementioned property during recent severe storm events.
Our property at 4244 E Stephens Drive has experienced flooding on two separate occasions due to the substantial volume of rainwater rushing from the street into our driveway and subsequently into the garage and house. We believe this issue is primarily caused by the combined slopes of the street leading to our property and our driveway, which directs a large influx of stormwater directly towards our residence. We had a professional assess the situation, and they recommended that the City's Engineering or Drainage Department investigate the matter. Thus we are requesting that a city engineer or drainage specialist visit our property to evaluate the existing conditions. Our goal is to explore potential solutions to mitigate or divert the excessive rainwater runoff from the street, thereby preventing it from overwhelming our existing garage drainage system.
We are hopeful that a city representative can identify measures to protect our property from future flooding incidents. Please contact us at your earliest convenience to schedule a site visit or discuss this matter further. You can reach us at 812-340-7863 (cell) or 812-332-9005 (land phone) so that we can be there when your engineer comes.
Thank you for your time and attention to this urgent issue.
Have a wonderful day!
Sincerely,
Shingshong & Hwamei Shei

Had an arborist out on another street tree (Japanese Cherry) that needs pruned badly and some dead removed, but is otherwise healthy. While there he looked at a Red Sunset Maple that I thought had a lot of dead in it, just in the last year. His appraisal was that it needed removed and since a street tree he suggested I give the city a call.

Re ticket #203149, how is this and other tickets continually closed when someone has to maintain the roadway for public use. This isn’t a private no entry roadway. Who has to maintain this for use? If our car breaks down in this hole are we to sue Simon properties? Someone has to have an answer aside from “streets doesn’t do this”. Engineering, another dept.?

Neighbors at 3:38 South Maple Street Bloomington, have neglected mowing their lawn this year, particularly their backyard. It's chest high for me. It's unsightly and I fear they may be unwanted vermin. Is there a way to appeal to them too clean it up? By the way, they also own a large dog who they let out into the backyard once or twice a day and don't clean up after it. Many thanks.
