tree branch has broken off and it falling onto the road and sidewalk a bit, medium sized not huge
To Paul Regarding Report #181821. The area is the cement pad between the two trees between the sidewalk and street. The contractors undermined the area under the cement pad and used heavy machinary lifting the cement pad and using heavy machine causing a trip and safety hazard causing an elevation in the cement pad. Attached is a picture. I believe the contractor needs to repair this safety hazard.
At the north end of the sidewalk out front, there is a street sign that blocks the sidewalk. Would it be possible to relocate the sign so that it is not in the way of pedestrians? It is dangerous in the dark.
On the far east end of the brick sidewalk out front, nearly against the retaining wall of 311 E. Cottage Grove and alongside the alley is what remains of what was probably a former street sign pole. It was broken off at some point about 8 inches from the ground. The remaining stump of a steel pole is still there, and it is *VERY* sharp on the tip. It was painted yellow at some point - possibly an attempt to make this hazard visible, but that doesn't help at night. Someone could trip on it, or worse, someone could trip on something else and fall and be impaled on the spike at the top of it. Please remove it ASAP, but whoever removes it needs to understand how to lay bricks because after removal the bricks will need to be relaid and perhaps some will need replacement. Also, no need to replace the sign because there hasn't been one there in a long time and it was ridiculous in the first place to install a sign in a sidewalk where someone could walk right into it in the dark.
I had previously filled issue 180907. The contractor has not contacted me regarding repair of the damaged sidewalk due to fiber installation. Could you please urge the contractor to remedy the damage to my cement pad. When they installed the fiber, they lifted the cement pad so it is no longer even with the sidewalk making it a tripping hazard.
IU Packer trucks are having a hard time getting access to trash containers along 9th because cars are parking along the curb. The sidewalk was recently re-done but curbs have not been painted. Thanks Jill
Sidewalk has a layer of mud and gravel from improper drainage/run off, opposite driveway for 3218 e Moores
Y'all must be union workers because i'm sure you're getting paid but I don't see much work getting done. 2 years. 2 YEARS the sidewalk here has been cracked and broken up in large chunks. T-W-O Y-E-A-R-S. And I know you mfs know about it too. Which means obviously y'all don't give one shit about any neighborhood that isn't next to IU or on the eastside, aka the places you let shoot their load all over you because money and classism. You obviously don't give one shit about disabled or elderly as this has been a hazard for over--remember? 2 YEARS. Not like someone can just walk across the street to use the other sidewalk across Kinser because there isn't one derp. So maybe try a bit harder. Just a bit. Maybe act like you actually give a shit about this city. Or at least do your damn job
This sidewalk needs to be fixed. It’s up 2”. It made me fall.
