Weeds including sidewalk
Weeds including sidewalk
There is a fallen branch on the sidewalk and treelawn (city easement) in front of my home. It fell from a city tree across the street. Presumably, someone moved it out of the roadway onto my easement. It is not thick, but is large and unwieldy. I do not have a photo I can submit.
South side is nice wildflower area but overgrowing onto sidewalk
There a many locations in the neighborhood with shoes hanging from wires. We have attempted to contact the various utility companies, but can be an extensive hassle because they insist on there being an active account at a particular address for them to start a service call. It seems the shoes are mostly hanging from ATT lines, but there are some other communication lines (coaxial cable) and also some electric lines that are being weighed down by shoes. This problem extends at least from 8th to 15th streets, and between Washington and Woodlawn, and is mostly visible in the alleys though some wires passing over streets are also cluttered with shoes. It makes the neighborhood look so trashy. Is this an actual crime? If so, should the police be called if it is witnessed? Would it help if a complete set of locations were sent to some office?
Trash
Property is a shameful site for our community and visitors. There's Trash, probably used needles, mattresses, and an awful infestation of rats. This is an issue that has been ongoing and needs the city's intervention now. Please address this. I'm ashamed to have visors to my hometown.
The sidewalk is covered with a think layer of run off gravel from the alley. Can this be cleaned up and something done to prevent this from continually happening?
courtesy dump
After a storm 2 months ago, neighbor has yet to clean up all the tree debris. We constantly have to move the branches/trees back on to the yard because it moves into our street where we cannot drive.
There's some sand on Rogers Street where it intersects the B-Line on the east side of Rogers. The sand is right in front of the curb ramp. Is there a way that you can sweep it? It seems like a bit of a slipping hazard when you are on a bike. Thanks for all you do!
