Description
The road up to the sewer grate at 1000 Dorothea dr is improperly graded which leads to putrid standing water and mud in all seasons and hundreds of mosquitoes in warmer weather which is a potential public health risk. Please please pretty please fix it. We have talked to many departments about his but everyone says it's another department's domain. Thanks!

The original poster's description is accurate. I have observed the problem over many years. I have had to remove multiple wheelbarrow loads of dirt every month from the sediment that settles out there after it rains. I spoke with the crews when Dorothea was repaved several years ago and the situation improved slightly, but the drainage there is still not adequate.
The other problem with that drain is that it receives far more water than it can handle. This problem leads to street flooding after fairly minor rain events. This drain receives water not only from Dorothea but from Stokes as well.
