Apartment building (Hyatt Place) construction on S. 4th Street between College and Madison has been frequently blocking traffic or limiting it to one lane near the B-Line for the past 8-12 months. There is rarely anybody directing traffic (and if there is, it is usually a construction worker who only sometimes has a handheld stop sign). Construction vehicles often dart out into the street during high traffic times (morning and evening work rushes) and block entrance to nearby apartment buildings. Furthermore, lack of barricades or proper containment causes debris, shrapnel, and other detritus to spill into the street from construction vehicles and dumpsters, often causing hazardous conditions for drivers and vehicles. My own vehicle was recently damaged by stray debris (which was impossible to avoid) and may even be totaled as a result. This also creates dangerous conditions for pedestrians on the sidewalks and makes it impossible for pedestrians on the B-Line to see oncoming traffic before crossing 4th street.

The public sidepath between Southdowns and Greenwood Avenue is blocked by overgrown plants. This is a walk-to-school route, used by people with strollers and at least one person in a wheelchair. Walkers are currently trampling the adjacent yard in order to avoid the plants. The plants are growing from the garden of Mr. Sagarin, who you may remember sued the council over the path, so I hesitate to contact him directly. Please resolve this urgently. Thank you. David Stringer (Rogers/Binford Safe Routes to School Committee).

Earlier tonight a tree fell down over the bridge at Lake Griffy, blocking both lanes of traffic. A few of us motorists got out and pushed it over the guardrail to clear the road. It occurs to me that now it's possible for that tree to roll down on to boaters (although I think it's still partly attached at the base). You might want to check it out though, and also possibly the guardrail sections on both sides. It's on the side closest to the boat house.
