Extremely strong Sewer smell, worse at night. Every night I drive through this area and am sick to my stomach for hours afterward. It has been like this for years. Something needs to be done to fix this issue.
The fire hydrant at the corner of Maxwell and Short Street (at the co-housing community) is pouring a lot of water.
Near the southwest corner of Washington and Kirkwood, there's water running out of a "Water" cover.
Water cascading down Hunter near High St and Anita. Coming up out of a hydrant or something above ground.
Broken water main/pipe with lots of water flowing into 7th Street at B-line Trail.
A water pipe is draining onto the sidewalk, causing a frozen pond .
Looks like there is a pipe burst in the backyard of this property I own
The neighborhood has insufficient street drainage for runoff, and this has threatened to flood my home again after yesterday’s rain. It already flooded with extensive damage in 2021, simply because the developers have inadequately accounted for the necessary drainage. I have documented the issue with the ONE drain on the downward slope of the street, where the water pools, meeting my front door, and even moving four parked cars. I would appreciate the benefit of your expertise regarding this matter as soon as is feasible for you. I have also contacted my homeowner’s association for assistance. Thank you!
The water runoff from Sare Road travels down McCartney Lane to end in a very small drain that is not large enough to facilitate proper drainage. This photo was from yesterday‘s mild rain. At times the water is much deeper and standing longer because the drain is clogged. A larger drain needs to be installed or possibly an additional drain as well, further up the road. This may be leading to erosion of soil and possibly foundation issues and needs to be addressed soon. We are also due to have our road paved this year so the drainage would need to be fixed prior to that. Please advise.
