The curbs and speed humps on E Morningside appear to have been abandoned after the installation contract was completed. The first ones near E Saratoga and others are overgrown with weeds. It's not a pleasing sight for making a first impression near the entry to the Park Ridge East neighborhood. Residents seem to have not accepted an involuntary expansion of their lawn maintenance responsibility into the right of way on a busy street. Similar curbs near the park at the Park Ridge Road intersection are being maintained, maybe by city crews. Similar attention by the city for the other curb bump outs would be appreciated. An alternate remedy would be to cover the area of the bump outs with stone or other low maintenance materials that would reduce the recurring cost of cutting grass and weeds. A small tree planted in a bump out curb on the north side of E Morningside had its bark stripped off and branches broken last month, possibly by deer. Apparently trees were selected for planting without considering whether they have a natural resistance to deer. The tree had no protection from deer.

This is a very deep, 2-3' at least, hole just at the edge of the sidewalk in 7th near college in from of the radio station. It large enough for a large man's shoe to fall through.

There is a bunch of sand on the sidewalk at 401 W 7th in front of the Monroe County voter registration building. It has been there for several months so am hoping it can be cleaned up. Thanks!
The house is in Stonegate (entrance off Smith Rd) but the bushes blocking the sidewalk are on Hagen St.
Between 404 and 408 East 4th Street. There is a City tree that is lifting the sidewalk with it's roots.
There was a car accident on Indiana Ave. between 8th and 9th Street by Mather's Museum. There were 3-4 street trees that were damaged (and possible curb damage). IU has determined there were street trees planted by the City. Thanks Jill.
