Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

209 S Dunn ST

Case Date:
7/11/2017

There is no paved sidewalk; it's just a bunch of horribly laid slabs of stone. How was this even allowed, especially in downtown?! This is not wheelchair accessible, and is dangerous to all others. Please put in a paved sidewalk here so wheelchaired people don't have to turn around and cross the street just to get by.

VERY disappointed in the new sidewalk curbs at 4th and Indiana. The curbs are to high for handicap individuals trying to correct they have made a mess of the new sidewalk areas. One sidewalk has been chipped significantly trying to correct. Very poor job.

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

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.

I believe the underground roots of a city planted oak tree are destroying the sidewalk in front of my house, also causing large cracks in my driveway entrance....numerous people have tripped and fallen on this sidewalk, which has gotten worse this past year....this is a heavily traveled sidewalk on the way to RCA Community Park and has created an unsafe situation...Please contact me to see if this can be safely repaired...than you, Dave Reid 812-363-3049

I'm writing about an unfinished sidewalk hole in front of my house. (See photo.) A couple of months ago, contractors for Vectren Gas Co. dug up the sidewalk to repair a gas line running under the street to the house across the street from my house. They filled the hole with gravel, but never finished the repair with concrete. I don't know whom to contact at Vectren, so I thought I would write to you. My address is: 2220 S. Fairmount Court Thanks, David Nord

It would be really amazing if there was a curb cutout at Bryan park on the park side where Davis hits Henderson. We take Davis from S Grant to the park almost daily with either bike/trailer or stroller and it would be really nice not to have to BUMP up to the sidewalk after crossing the street (even better would be a curb cutout AND a striped crossing)

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

2940-2998 Robins Bow

Case Date:
5/5/2017

My neighbors at 2802 S Forrester, when they re-landscaped their property 10 or so years ago, arranged to have the flow of water from their downspouts released onto the sidewalk at the shared edge of our two lots, which causes a tremendous flow of water onto the sidewalk in front of my property. This deposits debris on my property and creates treacherous conditions in the fall when rain occurs when temperatures are near freezing. This has been an irritant to me since the re-landscaping was complete but only recently did I read section 12.04.020 of the municipal code which would seem to prohibit such a discharge of water. Could you send someone to investigate this situation? The water comes out of two green pipes where our two properties abut the sidewalk on Robins Bow. This week the problem is particularly clear because of all the rain.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

1107 N Indiana AVE

Case Date:
2/18/2017

Good afternoon, I am writing to report an issue with water drainage coming from the roofs of houses and dumping on to the sidewalk. Along N. Indiana Ave, many houses/apartments (owned by Elkins Apartments) have drainage downspouts that empty directly on to the sidewalk. This creates a hazard with constant freeze and thew during the winter months. I have personally felt unsafe walking down a sloped sidewalk, on what is pure ice during periods this winter. Indiana Ave. is a very high foot traffic area during winter months as fans walk to and from basketball games. From witnessing several people slip and fall on the ice, I feel like it is my duty as a citizen to report this issue to the city. Though we have been blessed this season with relatively mild temperatures, this does not overshadow the safety hazard created from the downspouts off many of these houses. This problem would ideally need to be handled quickly before the next cold spell of weather. Thank you. Best regards
