Is the field Coordinator also the same guy that wasted all the time and material money trying to fix this issue the last 2 times but didn't? I'd cover my butt too if I did the shoddy work.
Why didn't he contact me to discuss?
I wish I worked for the government so I can waste taxpayers time and money and not fix issues. Private sector would get replaced doing work like this.
Here's the thing....
Water does not run up hill any kid playing in a mud puddle knows that.
How about we get some commissioners and media out there to take a look?
Not looking for every drop simply want it to be running downhill like it used to before you guys screwed it up.

Have a great weekend!

Original SCF reported an issue of 1-2 feet of standing water from a stormwater pipe, producing a mosquito breeding area. Mosquito Control technicians treated the area and Stormwater Operations maintenance crew has been out numerous times and have spent several man hours trying to improve the drainage and water flow. The ditch was cut down to flow level, concrete rubble was added to aid in water flowing from the pipe. The ditch banks and bottom were coco matted and sodded to keep the shoulder from eroding. (see attached photos) However 1-2” of water still pools approximately 6 feet out from the end of pipe.
Pinellas County Public Works Stormwater Operations will continue to address the drainage concerns in this area. A maintenance crew will be making additional cuts to deepen the ditch line from the pipe so water has an extended flow line. This includes but not limited to; removing the existing concrete rubble from its current location, cutting the ditch down below the pipe, and re-doing flow line. The concrete rubble will be positioned along the ditch banksides and bottom, to help prevent vegetation from washing away and causing future erosion. The additional planned maintenance should improve ditch flow, help alleviate pooling and standing water, that created a mosquito breeding ground in this location.

I spoke with 2 bosses a few weeks ago and they agreed the work done was wrong and that they would be getting a crew back out here to fix it.
That being said this should remain open until it's fixed right.

Your issue has been reopened. We ensure you that the Public Works Department will still investigate the issue and take any necessary action.

Thank You
