Sinkhole next to curb. Broke as I stepped off the curb and my leg was swallowed. Rolled my ankle, scraped my leg. Please see to it that the hole is filled asap, it's a saftey hazard.
Street drain is clogged and previously caused flooding in businesses. Please clear the drain.
Illegal Dumping in Drainage Easement and Common Conservation areas in Gentry South- Course construction sand (over 100 square feet and up to 10" deep) plus tree brush and other mulched woody material, large insect ridden sawed cut logs (including 47" logs), small rock and trash items have been dumped into the drainage easement area behind my house. The area that serves to hold flood water is being filled in, invasives are taking hold where the sand is, and the large debris is damaging trees. I know the area was free from this for at least 6 years prior, even during record water flow. The first occurrence was in early April 2020 and happened again the next year during early April 2021. These dumps are sudden. It was free of more sand at the end of March. Then, a week later there was suddenly a large dump of sand again. I was quoted $4,000 to remove the first dump of sand. Additionally, someone has dumped what looks like yard mulch/waste twice in this neighborhood’s Common Area/Conservation Easement.
The culvert that runs under N. Hay treet needs serious attention. The gutter draining into it is clogged. Tree overgrowth is blocking the west side. The culvert might need dredging.
Directly in front of One City Center on the 7th Street side, the ground has opened a large hole at the edge of the sidewalk that has gotten increasingly bigger over the past couple of weeks. It is very much a fall hazard, especially with the upcoming winter should the ground be covered with snow etc.
A report from a neighbor identifying a storm culvert issue: a bicycle is in the ditch and about to enter the storm drain area that runs under the N. Glenwood West street. Need COB staff to pull the object out of the storm culvert and dispose of it. Thanks - Neighbor report to me: In addition to leaves clogging pipes on Morningside that have sent water and leaves into the street, Matt has a red bicycle stuck in the concrete chute emptying water from his front yard into the ditch and the exit under the street. It needs to be dragged out of there before it goes into the culvert under Glenwood West.
Broken sewer line. Been uncovered for several weeks. Outside building 9 near fire lane
Leaves from other properties wash down the hill and covering the sewer drain at the bottom, blocking the path for runoff to enter the drain. A crew had recently come to take care of the blockage, but only removed some of the leaves and poked holes in the remaining pile covering the drain. With a big rainstorm coming soon, and this being a flood-prone area, its unlikely this doesn't result in serious flooding
A few homes have mounded their leaves on the the street. Rather than bagging or mulching. They are going to be in the storm drain with the upcoming rain. Please have them remove their leaves from the street
Most neighbors in Sherwood Oaks did a good job taking care of their own leaves this year, but there are still many remnants and we haven't seen a street sweeper yet this winter. We'd thought that was something that was supposed to happen after leaf season -- there are still storm inlets getting clogged. Thank you!
