Truck and trailer parked in street blocking traffic
Truck and trailer parked in street blocking traffic
Truck and trailer still parked in street, has been there since about 10 am. It is not being loaded or unloaded. There is a large paved lot attached to this property with plenty of off street parking available.
The owners of this property currently have a contractor cutting an entire tree down, blocking the alleyway. They frequently have contractors and tenants of their airbnb in and out of their property, blocking the street, blocking cars in, encroaching on nearby property. No one in the adjacent properties were notified this would be happening. This tree is old and enormous, and one of a pair that was clearly planted together years ago. They're chopping it down instead of fixing their sewage - not illegal or a violation, but 100% selfish yuppie hogshit in keeping with everything else they've done.
There was a mattress on the road. I moved it to the side of the road but wind being strong, it may blow back on the road and become a hazard.
Large tree had a break last Friday (3/12). Two branches fell into the street. Sharifs had to be called to help remove some of the larger pieces. Was told it is close enough to the road that I could get some assistance with removal cost.
A tree or branch has fallen and the top of it is in the northbound lane.
Overgrowth on west side of Waldron St. between 4th & Kirkwood. Two lane road is becoming one lane due to overgrowth. I can't see when pulling out of my driveway and cars have to wait for one another to pass. Needs trimmed back.
This house was sold and purchased by new owners in 2016. Since then the number of vehicles parked on the street has grown to as many as 7 over time. For the last 8 months, one of the vehicles has had 2 flat tires and has not moved. There have been many times (especially during snowy winter days) where the street becomes hard to navigate especially with two way traffic. Is there any ordinance that recommends the number of cars one can park in front of their house? Can an abandoned car remain on the streets for months on end? Perhaps the number of cars is related to the number of families residing at this home; is there a limit to the number of families that may be co-housing? How can this be resolved? Aside from the driving safety issues, it is a visual blight on our neighborhood and a very unfortunate welcome to our lovely neighborhood.
There is a Redbud tree that has fallen over and is partially blocking the street
Tree down across road. To big to move by hand safely
