For many years, kids have had problems walking to Rogers/Binford Elementary School on the south side of the sidewalk on E 1st St, just before High Street. There is an unused driveway to an empty lot, which is a pool of mud in wet weather. Neighbors have pointed this out to the council before. Neighbors have also come up with their own solutions - putting down boards, etc. I heard a school parent yesterday saying he planned to fill it in with gravel or cement because he had not had a response from the council. Might it be possible for you to repair this gap in the sidewalk permanently? Thank you!
Going West along Countryside Dr. there are trees along sidewalk on left hand side of road. At intersection Adams Hill Circle and Countryside...view to see oncoming traffic on either side of Countryside Dr. is completely obstructed by trees - cannot see oncoming traffic. This is a school zone, with high traffic volume in morning and evenings, problem compounded with bikers and pedestrian traffic.
Storm drainage system on N Blair needs concrete repaired before winter. Ends if metal grating are exposed and may catch on snow plows
Stormwater runoff into detention area on E. Brightcrest on east side of S. Smith Road is slow to drain due to vegetation blockage of storm sewer. During heavy rain it results in water flowing over sidewalk and into the street. It also is flooding spruce trees and thus may be detrimental to their health if the condition continues into somewhat warmer weather.
Some work has been done on the sewer/drainage at this location. But the hole was never filled or covered with grass. Three foot tall clean out PVC pipe sticks out. Clay drains down the sidewalk every time it rains.
