Abbowles

This is a photo taken last Wednesday in the alley directly behind 4605 Cutshaw Avenue, approximately 24 hours after a moderate rain event. City staff recently scraped this alley with a front loader, successfully taking care of major rutting issues. However, city staff did not grade the alley so that it would properly drain after rain events. This puddle is rather large, and stays for many days following moderate and large rain events. Can the city please come fill and compact with earthen materials (not stone)? We have small children, and are concerned about mosquito habitat - especially with the recent discovery of West Nile Virus in the metro area.
