The vegetation along Smith Ave from Euclid to Walker is out of control AGAIN. It overgrows into both sides of Smith so cars get scratched. If you want to turn onto Smith from Buckner you CANNOT see East on Smith to know if a car is coming West on Smith. Going East and West on Smith, the same problem occurs both directions on Davisson. This is a chronic problem every year. I believe Smith is platted as 16 feet wide, but there is definitely not that much clearance. I also believe there is city law that says vegetation should be cut back 3 feet from the street edges. If owners would cut their vegetation back one foot from the paved edge of Smith it would be a lot better. I'd appreciate contact from you after you look into this. Thank You!! (Sorry I don't have a photo I can upload right now. If you want one, let me know.)
Trees on either side of Terrace Drive block view of traffic when leaving Terrace Drive
High grass blocking the view of coming traffic on the corner of burks drive and walnut street pike.
Smith and Fairview, northeast corner, overgrown shrub obstructs line of sight for traffic turning onto Fairview from Smith.
I submitted a report earlier this week, but have an address and a clearer picture of the problem area. This stretch of green is along Sare Road and is the responsibility of the owner of the address given. However, due to inattenttion, entering Sare Road from Spicewood Lane is hazardous to someone driving a car heading north. If you are in a truck or SUV, your line of sight is much better. There is now a great deal of traffic on Sare Road at all times during the day, traveling above the speed limit in many cases, that pulling out onto Sare Road is scary and dangerous.
My son, Jeff Shew, lives at this address. He has contacted the city about having the side of the road mowed. His driveway is on a hill and there is no visibility coming out of the driveway. Saturday when I left this address, I had to inch my way out into the roadway to see if anyone is coming. Luckily for me, the car coming, which I could not see, slammed on their brakes and narrowly missed hitting me. Will it take an accident or death to get the city to trim this area????!!!! Please address the issue immediately and get back to me.
The large bushes on the Graham side of the property block line of sight for southbound drivers on Madison St. They need a serious trimming.
11 weeks now without a driveway. No driveways completed within 2 blocks in 2 weeks. Am still dealing with mud and gravel for the entire summer. WHEN WILL THIS SANDBAGGED PROJECT BE DONE? 3 city blocks without driveways since memorial day. Hamilton you are dead to me.
2 things: First, because of the bad line of sight, it is VERY difficult to pull out of our subdivision Bentley Court, or to turn into it. The other thing is we REALLY need a deer crossing sign there. Every day, deer go behind our houses and cross Winslow. Each day, I hold my breath, and can't look. Cars cannot see because of the bad line of sight/hill and then, there are the deer, daily. Help please!!!
