Description

Two continuing issues that have been reported for over 2 years. (1) Overflow from surface flume where it enters a concrete storm drainage pipe behind our property. Water and debris sweep across our property and into the neighbor's property below. After we have reported issue on several occasions, the city sends out a crew with a shovel and pick to pick up some debris. That's not solving the problem. (2) rain gutter downspout water from neighbor's house at 2522 Garth Road doesn't reach the street but rather overflows at the sidewalk, and down into the gap between the sidewalk and street. It is severely eroding earth and rock from the gap on our property. A fix would be to cut a narrow flume into the sidewalk, cover it with a grate so that the water goes into the street as it is supposed to do. I'm really tired of having the city create a ticket only close it later. Really, all that the city is doing is "shrugging its shoulders" and not addressing the issues.
