Some North Miami residents’ problems with raw sewage on streets continue
North Miami, Florida – On Thursday, sewage problems in North Miami continued.
In the front of the Prestige Pointe apartments, at 1525 NE 125th St., a sewage pipe was spewing raw sewage.
According to the residents, this happens every few weeks.
“When I came out in the morning that’s when I noticed clumped up tissue and human waste on our street,” said a resident who asked to remain anonymous.
Residents complained in September about human waste on the sidewalk and in the street.
“I literally had to step over human feces to get to my car,” said.
The complex is under the responsibility of the Prestige Estates property management.
In order to address the raw sewage that was coming from the property, the city officials issued the property owner a notice to appear in court on Dec. 16.
The court ordered the property owner to fix the problem.
After the issue was fixed in one area it’s now coming up again in another. Sewage was now bubbling up from the manhole right across the street, which now falls under the city officials’ responsibility.
