Ms. Costley owns the above rental property. Wants to know if the area between the street and lawn where recent work was done will be seeded and strawed. Utilities says this work was on storm sewers in conjunction with Hillside work.
Citizen is manager of Jiffy Treet. Says sidewalk in front of business is very bad and several older people have almost tripped. Did not realize property owner is responsible....he rents from Claire Young, 812-597-5711. JA told him we'd have Street check it out (Tom Goldman).
When sewer line was being installed, her property line was taken out, ground bulldozed, fence cut/damaged, and dog houses turned over. She wants Crider & Crider to replace fence. She has called C & C, CBU, Engineering, and Risk. SEE JANE FLEIG and/or JENNIFER LLOYD FOR FURTHER DETAILS.
MR. LUCAS CALLED AND STATED THAT SEWER LINES WERE INSTALLED TWICE IN A YEAR (THE LAST BEING ABOUT 5 WEEKS AGO) AND THAT DAMAGE WAS DONE TO HIS PROPERTY AND HAS NOT YET BEEN REPAIRED.
Citizen says construction crew was jackhammering street at 8am at Lincoln & University, a few feet away from her (and other) car. Dust and chunks of asphalt are all over her car. She thinks that no parking signs should have been posted if they were going to work this close to cars. Street Dept. thinks this was an Indiana Gas crew.
DENNIS SISCOE IS BUILDING A HOUSE AT 2419 W EVERGREEN DRIVE. APPARENTLY HE HAD TO COME ACROSS THE FRONT YARD OF MR. LUCAS' HOUSE TO HOOK ONTO THE CITY SEWER. IT HAS BEEN OVER TWO WEEKS AND THE TRENCH HAS NOT BEEN PROPERLY COVERED. THERE IS SEVERAL ROCK AND DEBRIS IN HIS YARD. HE WANTED TO KNOW IF THIS LINE HAD BEEN INSPECTED AND WHAT CAN BE DONE TO MAKE SISCOE CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. REFERRED TO THE MONROE COUNTY BUILDING DEPARTMENT.
8TH & ADAMS STREET REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT: HALL STATES THAT THE SIDEWALK IS SPALDING VERY BADLY. HE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SOMEONE FROM THE CITY COME AND WALK THE SITE WITH HIM. HALL STATES THAT THIS IS "THE WORST JOB HE HAS EVER SEEN".
It is not as safe as it should be to drop off and pickup students at the project school. The construction and parent traffic is directed to the alley between walnut street and Washington street. Often this vehicle traffic fails to yield to pedestrians making walking with children very worrisome.
i noticed a very dangerous situation that needs to be fixed. on the old part of west 3rd street that is still 2 lanes, beside the cresent donut shop, it is very narrow there, & i noticed that the edge of the street there is crumbling away. when it starts snowing in a month or 2, it will be even more dangerouse, because as the snow accumulates it can form a false shelf effect. in other words, the street there could look wider than it really is, so a driver could easily go over the edge & down into a little creek under there. please fix. thank you
Subsidence to manhole cover in far turn lane. College mall and SR46 While on 46, turning left onto E. 3rd St. Manhole cover is tight to island divider. Next to storm drain.
