The footbridge at the entrance to the trails is falling apart - it's probably one child jumping on it away from collapsing and causing injury.

Unsafe Buildings

815 S Larkspur LN

Case Date:
7/6/2017

1301 Woodhill Dr and 815 S. Larkspur Ln, both owned by Pendragon Properties have been vacant for weeks now. It is common practice for Pendragon it seems to leave windows open (presumably because they turn off HVAC to save costs?), and it has been humid and rainy increasing the chances of Black Mold and other issues related to moisture. This is not something new, and has been observed on these same properties an others in the neighborhood numerous times over the years. They are currently showing the houses to rent to (i.e. scam) new tenants, and it seems best if people were informed of their problems or if possible for the houses to be inspected. (Presumably, knowing Pendragon, there are other problems as well.)

601-659 S Lincoln St

Case Date:
8/17/2012

The neighborhood around 2nd and Lincoln has a few houses that are rented by undergrads who have loud parties most nights. More seriously, there is broken glass EVERYWHERE along the sidewalks the next day. Many people (including me) have dogs they need to walk through the area, and no matter what direction we go, there's a section of small broken glass to get through. Is there a way you can issue a notice to these houses or fine them for the hazard? I don't know what else to do. Thank you.

3401 E John Hinkle PL

Case Date:

The leasing office and pool building of Woodbridge Apartments has restrooms you can get trapped in. There are two restrooms, one mens and one womens, that connect to the exterior (on the pool side) and the interior (on the leasing office side). During normal business hours you can easily enter and exit the restrooms without a key from the interior, leasing office, side. You can also enter the restroom without a key from the pool side, but in order to return to the pool you must use a key that tenants have been given. This creates an environment you can get trapped in. Once the office is closed, it is impossible to leave the restroom through the door that is normally unlocked during the day. If you accidentally enter from the pool side without having a key, once the door closes you'll be trapped until someone finds you. Surely this is unsafe and not up to code. I'm reporting this anonymously as I am a tenant and do not want to cause trouble with the landlord. Thanks for your time.

3349 S Acadia CT

Case Date:
6/1/2017

There is a severe black mold problem in apartment 3349 at Acadia Court. The property manager has been informed and is taking steps to clean it. However, he is not bringing in professional certified mold removal experts and informed me they were cleaning it with bleach, which does not kill mold. The mold seems to be coming from the air vents and has caused at least one person to be quite ill.

2020-2098 East 2nd Street

Case Date:

This is not a building issue but rather an issue with a cable line going from the utility pole to my house. The line is sitting in the alley which could get tangled in a vehicle. The line has been exposed for 40 days. I am the owner at 2020 E. 2nd Street. Comcast has done nothing when I call them about the issue. Can the town help me pressure Comcast to bury the line?

I am here to report a safety issue on the location above. There is a tree branch laying on top of the street for almost one year. It seems the branch can fall on the street anytime. Please take care of it before it hurts any one. Thank you.
