Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

622 W 6th ST

Case Date:
10/5/2018

This entire sidewalk is covered in dirt and leaves which makes the ground slippery when wet. The sidewalk floods when there is rain which renders parts of the sidewalk impassable. There is also excessive growth from most of the foliage on the side of the sidewalk. The sidewalk is also uneven and broken; you can not wheel anything on the pavement and have to walk in the road.

This sidewalk is uneven and cracked and makes it impossible to wheel anything on the pavement. The ground is covered in dirt and leaves which makes passage in the rain hazardous. It also floods in the rain.

They built a new sidewalk on the corner of a big apartment complex, but it juts out into the street. Is that up to Code?

Follow up on uReport Case #158991: In spring of 2017 I filed a report with the city about the downspout drainage from my neighbor's property (2802 S Forrester), which dispenses rainwater directly onto the sidewalk in front of my house. They were issued a notice by the city, and they cut back the relevant downspout as indicated in the resolution of the ticket. However, thereafter they built a masonry channel from the end of the downspout that continues to direct the rainwater from the downspout onto the sidewalk in front of my property. When it rains moderately or heavily, the sidewalk on my property turns into a river, still, and in the seasonal transition to and from winter, the sidewalk winds up coated with ice. They masonry channel is topped with a plywood cover that is disguised with landscape rocks. I wanted to talk with them about this directly rather than file a report, but for 3 weeks I have not seen them at their house. Their house is reportedly under contract for sale, and I think it only fair that this issue be resolved (ideally by extending the drainage under the sidewalk to the curb so it no longer causes a negative impact on my property) before they sell it, so that new owners do not have to correct something they are not responsible for. Thank you.

Location: 2226 S. Sweetbriar Circle Dead and damaged trees are hanging over near the sidewalk and retaining wall. They appear to be ready to fall and pose a risk to sidewalk pedestrian traffic, as well as nearby homes. Please remove trees or as much of them as possible to avoid any potential issues.

The sidewalk along Winslow between Henderson and Picadilly, the south sidewalk next the Sherwood Greens, has two spots in need of repair. One portion of the sidewalk is sunk in and the other portion is crumbling. There are several people with mobility issues who use that sidewalk and also many runners use that sidewalk as well. The photos I am sharing are a year old so the problem has gotten worse. Thank you.

The sidewalk from Rogers to Madison on the north side of 4th street is impassable due to mud from run off and from untrimmed trees and shrubs. This is a reoccurring problem and makes walking with a stroller impossible.

Some landscaping work was recently done at this property, and the dump truck that delivered the rocks cracked the sidewalk, leaving it uneven.
