Town of Swampscott PLUS

Our sewer line backed up 2 weeks ago. Company came out with cameras and said Problem is pipe in the street. Left a voicemail about this at dpw as well. Sewer line back up again today. Drain company back out.

Hi, We have called many times regarding a problem with our sump pump. We had someone come out in early December who said he was going to look at our house plans for water and sewer and get back to us. We have not heard back. Since work on our street that began sometime in October our pump goes on for weeks at a time with no rain. We have never had this problem before. And have had lived here for over 30 years. Could someone please look into this? We feel terrible putting the hose out to the street because of icing so we are just having it drain into our yard. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

With 1-3” of rain coming this weekend there is going to be significant flooding on lower Stetson with all the leaves that the wind deposits there. Can the gutters and drains be cleared before the weekend storm hits? Thanks.

The storm drain is clogged and not draining at the end of Ocean Ave. near Beach Club parking lot.

Humphrey St at PHilips park and the little league field has golf ball sized rocks washed down from Pleasant St. Pleasant St to about half way up the hill is in the same state. Please send the sweeping crew.

The flooding on Stetson during Friday evening’s storm ran off lots of debris from other streets as well as debris that overflowed from the manholes into the street. Can you please run a sweeper in the Stetson flood area to prevent the catch basins from getting blocked up again. Thanks.

There's a fire hydrant on Salem St. near Sunbeam Ln with the main cap broken. Since they can't get the cap off, or worse the large metal nut will be thrown in to the pump because it's dropped inside the hydrant, this hydrant needs to be inspected and repaired.

maine swear line outside my house looks to be getting full agin

It's actually Phillips Park adjacent to 29 Charlotte Rd. There is a large uncovered hole in the park that was dug some time ago by the town. I just witnessed a child almost fall into it. It is a hazard that could result in a serious injury if left uncovered, especially if someone is walking through the park after dark.

The two storm drains on Blaney circle are full of leaves, etc. They are causing more water to pool up around it when it rains.

The same spot on Banks Ter that I have reported multiple times is STILL leaking and now has an awful sewage smell to it. Today it has been running like a river and the smell is horrible.
