Hey Joe! Street sweeping isn't going to fix that problem. You as the resident need to trim the vegetation so the water can drain. You as the resident are required to maintain your part of the right-away. I suggest you get to work before code cites you for failure to maintain your property.

CSR2 assigned this issue to Engineering 1

@ tom c. Lmao. Quit flapping your gums. It's making you look "stoopid"

I will not! The city sited me for similar even though it was in the city right of way. The only stupid ones are the ones who expect the city to do the work for a resident when the resident is required to.

@ tom. Look at the pictures.

I did. The pics are what prompted my comments. I saw grass growing. If the owner did their job, there wouldn't be that much standing water. A street sweeper does not cut grass or edge the gutter.

Apparently this is to complicated for you to grasp. The eroded asphalt in the street that is holding water has nothing to do with grass growing. The grass growing between the asphalt and gutter wouldn't be growing there if the street drained properly. This has been an issue for 20 years. The street sweeper request is nothing more than a temporary fix to remove the standing water.

And that is not the purpose of the street sweeper. The street sweeper is only to pick up debris such as leaves and loose items. The property owner has to trim, cut weed kill the grass so that it doesn't grow. The vegetation in the gutter prevents the water from properly flowing to the drain. Now if the gutter is totally crumbled, then you dont complain to codes. You send a request to the Mayors hotline and request gutter repair. I am a responsible home owner and always removed any sign of growth. When the gutter became to crumpled I put a work order request in to the mayor's hot line.

Still flooding
