Resident called in regarding a smithville fiber utility truck that parked on the lawn between the sidewalk and street. It left very large tire ruts. It is difficult to mow and should be repaired.
Unkept yard with poison ivy spilling on to sidewalk
There is a big piece of steel rebar sticking out of the sidewalk near the eastern entrance to 2427 E 2nd Street. It's become a safety issue for cars and pedestrian as many kids walk through there to get to the elementary school. Unsure if since it's an IU office if it's IU property? Thank you for investigating and potentially resolving.
The front cement area at the end of the driveway (on city street) is deteriorating, very unsightly, and could be a safety issue.
Euclid and W. 2nd intersection: visibility is greatly impaired for drivers turning off of Euclid onto 2nd here, due to overgrown grass and flowers in right of way on NE corner of intersection. Many folks have brought this issue up and it’s true that it’s quite dangerous to turn out of Euclid here. Some people say the homeowner does it in purpose to discourage people from using Euclid. I worry someone will get seriously hurt.
The sidewalk at 1107 S. Fairview at the property's secondary entrance is always either flooded, slick mud, or covered with dirt and grass is now taking root across it. Until very dry periods one must walk out in the street to get around it. Likewise, the weed trees at the line between 1107 and the apartment complex to the north are overgrown to a point that the sidewalk is becoming increasingly impassible.
Individuals in wheel chairs are forced to be in the street due to in accessible sidewalks, curbs, and no safe crosswalks in the Sherwood oaks neighborhood. Vehicles use high speeds over 35mph on this multi-modal road that is shared by bikes, cars, and individuals in wheelchairs. This is unacceptable and unsafe.
Poisen ivy growing onto side walk
I am a bicyclist and must use the sidewalks occasionally because of lack of bike lanes. At 701 S. High St., there is a culvert that borders the house and the apartment building. Weeds are growing out of the culvert and blocking the sidewalk, creating a hazard. It's not clear if it's the homeowner's responsibility or the city's to remove the weeds. Weeds are also protruding from the property onto the sidewalk.
I am a bicyclist and must use the sidewalks occasionally because of lack of bike lanes. The large house on the NE corner of S. High and Maxwell (I believe it is 831 S. High) has large bushes that protrude onto the sidewalk and vines that cover about 1/3 of the sidewalk, creating hazards for pedestrians and bicyclists alike. The homeowners have neglected to trim the bushes and vines for years.
