Mrs Kumar came in 08/30/16 and said she has spoken with HAND and PW about the overgrowth in the ditch in front of her house and they sent her to Utilities. I told her I would look at it.
The overgrown bushes along the west side of Madison on this corner make it difficult to walk on the sidewalk. The overhanging tree limb also makes it difficult to see traffic when driving east on Driscoll and turning north onto Madison.
There are many pedestrians like myself who walk North Walnut under the railroad trestle just north of 13th Street. On the west side of Walnut, this is so overgrown with weeds (some nearly trees) it becomes difficult to safely navigate there. Who is responsible to maintain this problem? If it's the railroad, they should be fined - especially in the winter when snow is NEVER cleared. The weeds are a nasty sight, too. One more thing, what should we do when we see homeless people making their 'homes' under the bridge. I just came past there and a couple of scary guys (trolls??) were making themselves comfortable. I'm a middle-aged single woman w/o a car so I often have to go to CVS from my home at 11th and Walnut. Thanks for any help you can provide!
