Neighbors that utilize this alley fill in the potholes regularly to traverse alley, these depressions continually sink back in. It seems as though that the sewage pipe below is collapsing. If so, should be checked out before total failure

Heavy equipment created major cracks in the sidewalk creating a hazardous condition and potential cave in. Also created craters in the berm. This all occurred on March 6, 2026. The equipment seems to have been operated by City Contractors.

another year this has not been fixed but DWSD keeps saying its complete. Curtis St is a pothole filled disaster that keeps getting worse and ignored by the city
