A resident called and complained of trees needing to be cut down and general issues seeing stop/street signs in the area. I believe the area that he is describing is the three-way stop at the back entrance to the CVS parking lot. Trees have apparently become overgrown, making the signs difficult to see.
Complaintant states that the problem is at an interection and he didn't know the exacy address. It is at the intersection of E. 5th St. and N. Clark St. there are trees blocking the N. view for buses that drive this area. They can not see oncoming traffic because of these trees.
There is a bush between the curb and sidewalk in front of the Cloverleaf Restaurant that is causing a line of sight problem for traffic going south on Kimble Drive looking to the west. It is difficult for drivers to see oncoming traffic around the bush.
Pine trees planted Fri in front of Clover Leaf Rest causing a line of sight problem when pulling out on W. 3rd St.
Over growth at 2435 E. 3rd St.
There is a lilac bush on the southwest corner of East 7th Street and Hillsdale Drive that blocks the line of sight as you pull off of 7th. There is also a concern that people fly through the stop sign at this intersection. The stop sign is placed a ways back from the intersection. They would also like for the City to look at a multi-way stop.
At Lemon and Vernal you can not see coming out onto Vernal. This person was hit because she could not see around the corner when pulling out.
There are trees/shrubs that hinder the line of sight for vehicles pulling off of Lemon Lane onto Vernal Pike. The citizen said the problem is when you are turning to go West onto Vernal Pike.
If pulling off of Clark St. on to 3rd, you can not see to pull out due to bushes.
