Plants along sidewalk have grown out enough to impede pedestrians, and they keep growing. Could be responsibility of 713 E. Cottage Grove, or maybe both.

Case Date:

Sidewalk near NE corner of lot (along Cottage Grove) is becoming impassible due to invasive shrub overgrowth (an annual occurrence at this location). While they are cutting it back, they might as well also trim back the shrub on the SW corner of the same lot along Grant. It is just starting to be in the way.

Case Date:

Difficult to get through sidewalk on NW corner of this lot because of weed growth stemming from vines on a tree on this property and also a tree in the ROW that is proximate. Because the trees are so close to each other, the overgrowth of the vines from them is hindering pedestrian passage between them. Property is owned by IU (as per Elevate).

I'll admit that this isn't one of the more extreme instances of "excessive growth" by any means, but it nonetheless reaches beyond the property and obstructs a portion of the sidewalk. The other day I had to pass by another person here and essentially found myself walking through plants/bushes.

Overgrown bushes are obstructing part of the sidewalk on N Woodlawn Avenue.

Case Date:

Shrubbery along boundary between properties - 715 E. 11th (IU-owned) and 723 E. 11th (private) - has grown so much that it is blocking the sidewalk. It is not obvious which of the two properties is responsible for the trimming, but it looks closer to 715.

Case Date:

Sidewalk is completely blocked by overgrowth of what appears to be a box elder (?) Tree is right on the property line between 412 (CFC) and 418 (Brawley).

Recurring problem. See #184772, #177627, #184699, #184577, etc. Actual address not clear, as it is on the property line of two lots. Plants are overgrown into the sidewalk along the south side of Cottage Grove just east of Grant Street. Pedestrians need to use that side of the street to avoid the fraternity in the apartment building on the north side of the street.

Case Date:

8/27/2023

There are two bushes along N Woodlawn Ave (but one in particular that I am singling out in this complaint) that is growing over onto the sidewalk. It takes up about half the sidewalk and requires people to step onto the road verge when passing another person.

Case Date:

Overgrowth of foliage and brush from the property at 701 N Woodlawn Ave extends into the sidewalk and poses a hazard to pedestrians and passerby. Google Maps lists the property as bearing the addresses 701, 703 & 705; or 829 E Cottage Grove Ave.
