City of St. Petersburg PLUS

The builders of this house dug a large hole on the edge of the alley and now a deep depression has developed and is worse today than yesterday as we had a lot of rain last night.

This is the third ticket I've opened since June-the other two have been closed or archived (ticket 17709006 and ticket 16871076). The most recent ticket said to reference a different neighbor's ticket (17943674) for updates, and when I did, that ticket was also closed.
We have had ongoing flooding and water backup issues in our alley which have gotten progressively worse over the last year due to the alley pavement becoming extremely raised and bumpy. During the hurricanes, my garage got 6" of water in it because of the alley grade sloping water right at my garage. My surrounding neighbors also had flooding due to this issue. The last ticket I opened was closed/archived and said that it will be dealt with in 1-1.5 YEARS, which is completely unacceptable. This photo is from the small amount of rain we had today-any amount of rain now floods half of my driveway and the water sits there for days. I have already paid to have my own driveway repaved and sloped as best as possible to help minimize this, but it does very little with how raised the alley has become. Please prioritize this and reach out to me for any additional photos or information- I am very concerned about next year's hurricane season and potential flooding if this is not addressed beforehand. Thank you.

about 2 months ago black top removed from alley apparently for work to be done, nothing was ever done and all the black top has blocked the drain making now this rain storm flood the alley into the properties. please assess and see which team is coming back out to complete project from months ago.

The alley grade is causing back-up and flooding along 3 houses on each side of the alley, it is not running off towards the drain as the center of the road has buckled up, forcing the water into the yards/driveways rather than directing it to the drain, not just from these storms but an ongoing issue anytime it rains. You have a block of run off, sitting here until it evaporates or breeds mosquitos as it is also stagnant once the rain stops. In this photo, from about a month ago, not after a storm, just summer rain the drain is actually behind me, you can see it is running from up the street then stops and is sitting and not running off, this water sat for several days. On the other side of these 3 houses toward the drain, the center of the road is not elevated from damage and that water runs off with no problems, I have videos of what it is like beyond these 3 houses and what it is like at these 3 if you would like them during normal rainfall. I could not see where to upload the videos here. You all re-graded the alley just south of us this summer, but stopped at ours.

tree removed by forestry years ago has contributed to the unevenness of the alley. flooding up to my yard. now a whole has opened up on the alleyway and water is flowing like a waterfall. please have someone check this out

The alley way is in great need of repair.
