There is construction going on in the Westpointe Subdivisoin between Larkspur and Woodhill. The construction trucks are triple parking and making it almost impossible to safely pull out of the addition. You can not see around the trucks to see oncoming traffic.
This complaint was left on voice mail by Becci Brock, Risk Management Dept. She received a phone call from a citizen that stated there is a line of sight problem in the east/west alley between 15th/16th Streets as you come out onto Dunn Street. The alley is overgrown with bushes and shrubs making it difficult to see oncoming traffic. She did not state which corner had the problem.
Overgrown hedges at the corner of Atwater & Hawthorne. Lady caller said that she was almost in an accident because of the line of sight problem.

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 are tree limbs and bushes overhanging the sidewalk causing a "tunnel" effect. The trees and bushes are also blocking a warning sign for the Fire Station plus a traffic regulatory sign.
Sharon from MCCSC Schools phoned in and said that the trees in the yard of the above property are hanging in to the street hitting buses and making it hard to see and drive past this house. Property is in Fritz Terrace.
The northwest corner of this intersection has shrubs that are too high and too close to the sidewalk. South bound traffic on Hawthorne cannot see to the west to enter into the intersection safely.
