Acknowledged

The health inspector met with the complainant. The area in question was treated for mosquitoes. Further inspection will be required to determine if there is a drain under the standing water. We will continue to follow up and monitor.

Corey and Chris,

Upon the completion of Friday's work day, CSD did confirm an ~12-inch storm sewer located in the rear 1815 St. Elmo Avenue NE (this sewer is connected 'blind' as indicated by the hand-drawn Atlas Sheet). The image below indicates the existing 18-inch storm sewer in front of 1815 St. Elmo Avenue NE.

As we discussed, please confirm if Engineering house records indicate if the storm sewer running to the rear of said property is owned/operated by the City. Also, there appears to be a larger concern for drainage and/or a re-establishment of a swale through this area (i.e. open land behind properties).

Colton,

As noted in the above, a storm sewer is located in the rear of this property; however, the good folks in Engineering are determining levels of responsibilities.....stay-tuned.

Thank a lot,,,,

Colton,

Our sewer maps indicate a storm sewer in this area however its between 19th St. and Vermont Avenue NE (slightly north of this area). The records show a 15-inch storm that lies in the rear of the of the homes in this area. If time allows tomorrow, we will have crew there tomorrow to investigate.

We will let you know of our findings. If like to check in the morning feel free to email me....

Brad,

I provided a GIS map to Jim B. this afternoon, if time allows they can investigate.

Thanks!

Mr DiMarzio,
I was called out to the wooded lot behind 1815 St Elmo, to deal with mosquitoes and standing water. I examined the area in the middle of the woods, and after speaking with some of the home owners around the area, the general consensus among them is that back years ago the area that is now a stagnant bog, was a free flowing stream. They claim that a storm drain was installed sometime in the 80’s in the south east corner of the woods, along 18th St NE. I tried to find more evidence of the drain, but I cannot see any drain, or drain cover under the murky water. The area is allegedly flooded all year round, and no one can remember exactly when they last saw the drain.
Can you send someone out to look and see if it can be sucked out? Or at least see if there even is a drain there. If you need me to, I would be happy to meet with you, or one of your workers at the sight, to provide any information or assistance I can.
The neighbors around the area are concerned about the constant mosquito issues that come about every year. I have my Interns larvaciding it, but that is only a temporary solution. My ultimate goal would be to get the water moving again, if that is possible.
Please let me know if this is something that you can help with, or if you have any other ideas on the matter.
Thanks you,
Colton Masters

05242016 - I recieved a SCF complaint about the creek behind this house being stagnant year round. I observed the woods holding a large amount of dirty stagnant water. I spoke with the complainant who explained that in the 80's he remembered a storm drain being installed to drain the creek, but they believe it was clogged up. I cannot see the drain, or any sign of a drain. There are some concrete blocks on the SE corner of the water, which is where the drain suppositively is. I sent the Mosquito interns out to larvicide this, while we try to get to the bottom of the draining issue. /// CM
07062016 - I recieved emails back from collections, they confirmed that there is a drain under there, but they are not going to clean out the drain, because they think it is still draining. Leave on larvicide list. No PHNs at this time. Close case. /// CM

Being larvacided...case closed.
