Drainage or Runoff
609 S Fess AVE
- Case Date:
- 2/13/2025
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.

The S Sare Road location - marked above has very few streetlights located only on junctions and so I wanted to request the possibility of having more street-lights on this road since getting back home in the dark makes it risky to even walk around at night. Thank you!
Potholes, Other Street Repair

Part tectonic plate, part aircraft carrier bulkhead--Houston, we have a problem.
It would seem that some utility repair of another has resulted in a steel plate the thickness of a very hefty mozzarella stick, length and width that could probably park a Smart Car, in the middle of the road. I suspect this formidable obstacle is the result of whatever adventure IU tasked itself with over winter break, as I observed their vehicles there, but that's not to say I'm 100% positive. Either way, the impact of this scrapper's dream was presumably originally mitigated with the pouring of some cold patch concrete around the edges, but alas, much has changed since. Tire impact after tire impact has slowly moved this plate, rendering the cold patch mostly useless. As steam billows out from around the edges, I imagine whatever was being fixed is still in the process of being fixed. But at the moment, it's like witnessing suspension-damaging continental drift. Aside from mounting this hulking piece of metal in a museum as a replicated piece of the Titanic's hull, creating a more subtle transition from pavement to metal would very much be appreciated.
Thank you and have a wonderful day.

The intersection of watson and Madison is a 4 way stop sign intersection. Throughout the day cars fly through the intersection because they are avoiding the light at s Roger's and country club. Can the signs also says all sides stop. Or speed bumps. Kids live in the neighborhood and walk home from the bus and school. Its dangerous.
