There is a dead deer between the sidewalk and Sare Rd, one block south of David St that needs to be picked up. It has been there since 11/3/21 late at night. thank you.
Dead rabbit on the sidewalk.
I noticed a large bald hornet nest in a city tree in the treeplot in front of 715 West 13th Street. City employees (trash collection), postal workers, and members of the public regularly walk down this sidewalk and they will be walking directly under this nest. My understanding is that bald hornets are quite aggressive, and this is unsafe. I hope the City can remove it quickly. Thank you. (Not sure if you can see it or not in the photo, it is quite large)
Can we start to have a conversation about the deer population in this town? I walked Sussex Dr yesterday and counted ten deer (!) in 3 groups: doe and 2 fawns, doe and 3 fawns, doe and 2 fawns - all within 2 city blocks!! As we approached the first group using the city sidewalk the mother agressively came after us, stomping her foot. We had to cross the street and walk very slowly to avoid her defensive aggression. This is all well within the city limits. Why should I have to fear them when I'm walking around my own neighborhood? They've already forced several of ourneighbors to install concentration camp fencing to protect their landscaping. Many of our other neighbors have all their landscaping in cages. I like watching deer, too, but come on now - at this point they are pests without a predator to keep them under control. Have we gone too far? Culling is in order. Note: I didn't even mention the costs of hitting one with a car or motorcyle.
