The hill on East Moore's going up from Sare Rd to Andrew Circle becomes a full on river when it rains, and a bobsled track when that rain freezes. It's very dangerous.

Water runoff (consistent, day to day problem), from nearby/ adjoining (possibly restaurant/fine dining businesses) is a visual/ sanitary problem to pedestrians.
two properties above us the road all the water on the road goes into the yard comes down toward are house crossing on road since it is all down hill into the neighbors beside us into my yard. it drains.in front of my garage and runs on my . about 3 to 4 inches of water on my side walk .side walk. also the road south of us also runs in neighbor east of my house also runs runs to my house. South of me there is a a large building about 40 feet long that doesn't have gutters it runs down across the road on neighbors which in turn runs toward my house. II have pictures to send in the mail which I wi8ll need to send you because I don't know how to send them in the mail. I have spent 400.00 to put a ridge to keep from running in my yard. I also had a drain dug in my drive about 4 feet from the fence running about 2 foot deep running toward the drain in the back of my house that cost me 650.00. I will write on the back of the picture that will explain what they are for when I send them thank you and I will write on the back . Also in front of garage my small car is on ramps so the water will not get my brake shoes wet and i have to not park my other car about7 feet from the garage so i can;t park a car behind my car. Thank you for taking the time to read John Arthur
Lots of qater is spewing out of the water hydrant at E Hillside and Monon
Severe erosion issues from tree removal and other excavation work in backyard without proper erosion control measures put in place or inspected. Flood plain below the property is becoming badly silted on city of Bloomington property adjoining Jackson Creek. Site grading in the area appears to be completed, but erosion issues persist.
A storm drain is located on Plymouth Road by the northeast point of my property. (It is directly across from the fire hydrant at Beacon and Plymouth.) The water from the drain runs underground on the north side of my house, then empties at the back by the railroad. The water then runs south over the open ground. During heavy rains, a creek forms and the stormwater overflows the small natural runoff channel, flooding into my yard. On Memorial Day weekend, I noticed that a small "sinkhole", maybe three feet wide, had formed near the back of my driveway. Also, when the last contractor installed cables, they dug a trench through our backyards and that trench is getting deeper, too. Where the storm drain empties at the back of the lot, there is a very large hole due to erosion. I am concerned that there is a problem with the infrastructure which is affecting my property. Could someone please help me determine the cause and solution to the problems? Jeanne Dutton 621 N Plymouth Road 812-606-9233
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
Water gathers in the city egress behind my property and backs up into my side yard. I think something is blocked.
