Potholes in gravel alley. They hold water allowing mosquitoes to breed.
Potholes in gravel alley. They hold water allowing mosquitoes to breed.
The alley running west off Pine Street between Kirkwood and 6th has numerous potholes. it is paved where it comes off Pine and it is this section that is very rough and needs attention
The map app was off by about a block in every direction, but my actual address is 1124 W. 6th Street and the issue I’m reporting pertains to the alley on the West side of my house. Over the last few months it has turned into a muddy bog in places, and contains 8” ruts making it nearly impossible for anyone without a truck to traverse. My neighbors to the West have been parking on the street for that past couple of months. Both the North and South ends need grating and gravel. I know your department is busy this time of year, but I thought I should go ahead and place a request as the alley is likely to continue to deteriorate. Thanks!
At the intersection of W. 9th Street and N. Maple (NOT "709" as your locator insists) is a long crevice in the roadway, getting deeper by the day. It lies along the south side of the intersection. Many cars no longer stop at the stop sign; they just "run" over this trench so they won't get stuck. Although the area is not exactly a high-traffic one, it gets many children, families, pedestrians—and this trench is a dangerous situation.
The small stub of West 10th Street that runs West from Fairview to another short street called Curve Street and runs for one block is a disgusting muddy mess. If you are not going to maintain this street why don't you dig it up and turn it into green space? During the recent rains the City storm water system was so backed up in this location that the entire area completely filled with water (causing water infiltration into the basement of the house I own at 605 North Fairview. The storm sewers are often blocked and the culvert at the bottom of the park is inadequate to handle the water that runs off Ernest Butler Park. The whole situaiton is a mess and largely caused by City mismanagement. Additionally, the City has repeatedly allowed Mr. Goodman to violate City rules and codes and directives and his mess and non-running cars adds to the mix of this mess--once again a case of City mismanagement. This horrible situation has persisted for years. As the owner of 605 N Fairview I am seriously considering hiring an attorney and taking formal legal action against the City for its inattention to its own rules. If the Goodman property were a rental property that I owned I would be getting a complaint notice every other day. Both Matt Murphy (who owns the commercial property which adjoins my house at 605 N Fairview) and I have invested significant money in keeping our properties nice and generally contributing to the uplift of the Near-Westside. Too bad the City is not helping us! My number is 812-322-2050 and I would be interested in hearing if anyone at the City has viewed the situation on this one block section of West 10th Street.
Looks like this pothole could do some damage. 1000 block of 6th St.
the ground under the concrete has washed away causing a hole that broke the concrete and created a large hole
This pothole is about 8' x 15' wide and a couple inches deep. Just a mess!
Corner of W. 8th St. and Williams (and on Williams towards 9th). There's some gravel both in the road and collecting in the storm drains. Could this be collected out of the way? Thank you!
