The alley to the west of 1022 and 1024 W 7th is highy degraded and a danger to cars and traffic. It is so uneven that it's a danger to pedestrians as well. I am trying to upload an image here but the site doesn't seem to be accepting it.
Major deterioration of city street pavement at entrance of paved alley, approximately 4” deep, causing hazardous driving condition.
West 7th Street from Rogers to Fairview is full of deep and growing potholes. They are on both sides of the road and impossible to avoid. Patching has been done in the past but never holds. Can the city possibly repave this section? School buses roll through here daily and now workers who cannot park at the Johnson Cremery building are parking here, which is increasing the damage to the road.
Potholes on Jackson Street along the side of the church.
Please come and pave our ally! We cannot get in our out of our driveway without hitting the bottom of our cars on the road because of the big holes missing in front of our driveway. A while back some men came and scattered little bits of asphalt along the ally, which did nothing but make the whole ally worse. The entire ally needs repaved dinner than later because the lack of upkeep to the ally is causing damage to our cars. We are documenting all the damage that is being caused to our vehicles because of the negligence of the city to properly maintain the ally and we are also taking note to the fact that the first report we submitted only resulted in the men placing little bits of asphalt around the ally that has made the conditions worse AND the second report we have submitted is still currently open, no response has been submitted to us, and no repairs have been completed. I will continue to report these repairs being needed until the work is finished.
The entire ally needs paved, not just a little bit of covering scattered here and there, actually resurfaced and paved. I can hardly get into or out of my gravel drive way without knocking the front of my car on the street because of the missing street in front of my driveway or when I pull into the ally from the side streets. A little while back sooner men came and put some pavement in like they were patching potholes...this didn't work. The whole thing needs repaved please and thank you.
Corner of W. 8th St. and Williams (and on Williams towards 9th). There's some gravel both in the road and collecting in the storm drains. Could this be collected out of the way? Thank you!
This pothole is about 8' x 15' wide and a couple inches deep. Just a mess!
the ground under the concrete has washed away causing a hole that broke the concrete and created a large hole
The small stub of West 10th Street that runs West from Fairview to another short street called Curve Street and runs for one block is a disgusting muddy mess. If you are not going to maintain this street why don't you dig it up and turn it into green space? During the recent rains the City storm water system was so backed up in this location that the entire area completely filled with water (causing water infiltration into the basement of the house I own at 605 North Fairview. The storm sewers are often blocked and the culvert at the bottom of the park is inadequate to handle the water that runs off Ernest Butler Park. The whole situaiton is a mess and largely caused by City mismanagement. Additionally, the City has repeatedly allowed Mr. Goodman to violate City rules and codes and directives and his mess and non-running cars adds to the mix of this mess--once again a case of City mismanagement. This horrible situation has persisted for years. As the owner of 605 N Fairview I am seriously considering hiring an attorney and taking formal legal action against the City for its inattention to its own rules. If the Goodman property were a rental property that I owned I would be getting a complaint notice every other day. Both Matt Murphy (who owns the commercial property which adjoins my house at 605 N Fairview) and I have invested significant money in keeping our properties nice and generally contributing to the uplift of the Near-Westside. Too bad the City is not helping us! My number is 812-322-2050 and I would be interested in hearing if anyone at the City has viewed the situation on this one block section of West 10th Street.
