    Is there a minimum size of limb pile before limb truck will actually pick up? I do know from experience there is a maximum pile size per week Why I ask, is sometimes the truck will drive down to the dead end street, look at our limb pile, and then back out of dead end Only when pile reaches some unknown size requirement, is it actually picked up

    First and foremost I want to commend Huntsville Utilities Water Quality Department for the outstanding water we have in Huntsville. Unfortunately I live on a dead end road that is the end of the line thus the water quality is only ensured by regular flushing of dead end line.

    Thankfully HSV Utilities has been flushing the line manually twice per month or so to ensure chlorine levels reach all the way to my house drinking water, and bacteria is kept in check. In that past month they came up with an automated solution, which is a great idea, and what is shown in pictures.

    However the implementation needs some improvement to prevent a safety tripping hazard created by the abandoned Comcast Coaxial Cables shown, and the exposed water pipe. The other issue is that it floods the whole street for about 200 feet before the water runs only in the concrete gutter system.

    I have an easy modification that will solve safety issues and allow the required periodic flushing of the dead end line as required to ensure water quality all he way to the last house.

    The easy fix requires a hole drilled thru the 6” high concrete curb, such that the PVC pipe can be buried just inches underground, and exit thru the small hole in the concrete curb. Then add a 90 degree Gray PVC elbow to keep the water stream flowing only in the concrete gutter all the way to the storm drain.

    I would be more than happy to meet with Huntsville Utilities to discuss my design idea that would solve current issues with very little modification of current system.

    The timer has now been running for over 3 days in a row, and it is scary to think that much flushing of line is required to ensure the water I am drinking is safe, but I prefer safe water no matter how long it has to run. I just would appreciate a more elegant implementation of the automated solution, and perhaps knowing how often the water valve should be open.

    Thank You!

    Street Light Pole is missing at 8006 Smoke Rise Rd SE. All that is there is a orange cone on top of base. Pole was damaged for years, and may be why it is gone. However, it needs to be replaced as soon as possible as this is a very dark dead end street where street lights are spaced way too far apart already.

    We have patiently been waiting approximately 4 weeks now, since a City of HSV Contractor dug up our front lawn and left a muddy ungraded and unfinished construction zone behind.

    The contractor pulled off the job in our neighborhood a day or so later, and has not been seen since, much less has the City of HSV or the contractor sent a landscaping crew to restore the lawn to it’s previous condition.

    I have attached a cell phone picture to give an idea of the muddy irregular graded clay muddy mess left behind by the contractor.

    Our lawn near the road was planted with mondo border grass ground cover, as you can see from the remaining mondo near one of the new boxes the contractor installed. Prior to the work, the lawn condition was graded, the soil was packed with evenly, and with a nice layer of top soil on top of the muddy clay, with an abundance of mondo grass ground growing in the top soil layer.

    The contractor planted not one but two grade level utility boxes on this single lot, and left areas unfilled around the boxes which are a safety hazard for anyone walking on the lawn!

    The Contractor actually bored under the road across 8011, and 8013 Smoke Rise Rd, but as soon as they reached the lot line on 8015, which is marked, they switched to an excavator and dug across the whole width of the lot, and damaged/disturbed an area of roughly 1000 SF, leaving a muddy ungraded, unpacked and unfinished area behind.

    Request City of HSV return lawn to condition it was in before City of HSV Contractor destroyed it.

    ATT Underground Fiber Contractor digging under concrete driveways to run fiber cable and undermining dirt supporting driveway! This is a structural and safety issue! Then they are backfilling at edge of driveway leaving air space under concrete driveway to collapse when driven over! They are also leaving mud all over driveways and street from their excavations, as well as damaging existing utilities and telecommunications Homeowner at 8003 Smoke Rise has pictures of under driveway excavation and rock removal, prior to contractor hiding damage by back filling next to driveway!

    ATT Fiber underground utilities Contractor does not have business name, contact information or state/local license information on their trucks, as required by city and state ordinances Problem is they are damaging neighborhood utility infrastructure, streets, lawns, etc and there is no way to identify them in order to contact their manager to complain or report offender to authorities The hispanic crew does not speak english either, so no way to discuss issues directly City Officials need to inspect and ensure contractors are not destroying public and private infrastructure and other companies telecommunications infrastructures

    ATT Fiber Contractor is digging up yards to install fiber cable and leaving muddy mess in driveways, street, and lawns!
    Immediate mud cleanup required!

    ATT Underground Fiber Contractor is destroying our street! Picture is where they dug up sewer line, and water is pouring out on ground at leak! They are using backhoe digging up front yards to run new ATT Fiber Cable underground, rather than use boring machine like all their competitors did! HSV Utilities ran new fiber, Comcast ran new fiber and WOW ran new digital cable on our street! All 3 of those used boring machines and only hand dug junction boxes! Those companies ran there new services on both sides of street with boring machines and did Not destroy our yards! Please Stop this madness and make ATT do it right!
