My next door neighbors at 2100 W 106th St have a bush in the grass area between side walk & street that grows high & wide & blocks the view from driveway to see the traffic on 106th St. It's a busy street & difficult to pull out & back out as is, but with the neighbors bush it makes it even more difficult. It blinds the view and we are concerned of getting in an accident because of it. For last few years it's grown taller & wider & we even talked to the neighbors about it about 1 1/2 yrs ago, but they didn't seem to think it was an issue & did nothing about it. I don't want to be a disgruntled neighbor, but also do not want to get in a car accident from the blinding view, trying to leave my driveway. It is very frustrating. I would like to know what the rules are for planting trees, bushes or plants on the section of grass between the sidewalk & street is & if the neighbors could be requested to remove or trim down the bush.

Traffic sight lines at American Blvd. and the east entrance of Metro Drive are horrible, if not impossible, due to the raised planting bed in the middle of American Blvd. and the bushes growing there. Pulling out from Metro Drive you cannot see oncoming traffic from the west, and making a left turn into Metro Drive you cannot see oncoming traffic from the east. There as an accident right there just about a week ago and every day is a crapshoot, especially d uring prime rush hours. Please trim these bushes down so sighlines can be had.

1029-1099 West Ralston Drive

Turning left/south onto Rockport from Ralston is frightening. This morning I almost got hit. I do look north and south several times each before turning out. From the north cars are coming over a hill, and we can't see far enough south onto Rockport to see a car coming north. The trees on the SE corner of that intersection need to be trimmed way back, regularly. Thank you for listening and helping!

out on west 3rd street, there's a median that has a multitude of overgrown trees & bushes. for example, if someone living on yancy lane drives to kroger/west, then upon return, can't turn left onto yancy safely, because of the overgrowth there. can't see oncoming cars well enough, so have to go further & then turn around to come back.

There is a very uneven crack in the sidewalk in front of The Bishop just up from the corner of 4th and Walnut, sort of in front of the tree that was removed. Last night I was walking up the sidewalk and fell on all fours because of the crack. Luckily I didn't break my already repaired wrist to which I am still paying medical expenses and only escaped with a cut knee. When I sat down, a woman mentioned that while visiting The Bishop, she sits in their outside seating area and sees people trip over this crack countless times. Upon hearing that, I too remembered seeing a woman fall on all fours in the same spot. Clearly, this is a hazard that should be looked at and taken care of. Thank you.

Case #153480 Hello again. It appears that the "wildfowers" which were blocking the vision of drivers exiting Prospect Hill neighborhood on Euclid and Second street are back again this year!!!!! Sorry to complain again about the same problem, but it is a very dangerous effort to turn onto Second street from this corner due to the rise in the road which obstructs vehicles traveling from town toward 37 and with the patch of weeds growing next to the street, the oncoming cars cannot be seen until they are practically at the intersection. Surely the homeowner has not forgotten the complaint from last year, but it would be advisable to remind them of the dangerous situation before there are some serious accidents. Thank you for looking into this problem.
