Broken sidewalk
Request to repaint yellow curb
A postal worker parks on the yellow curb at the NE corner of 13th and Fairview several times a week. This prevents southbound traffic on Fairview from seeing if it’s safe to proceed across 13th Street. The yellow curb there is very faded, so perhaps they do not know it is illegal to park there. I request that the curb be repainted.
Broken sidewalks
There is a broken street sign with jagged edges protruding above a sidewalk outside of 801 South Highland Avenue
On Walnut Street the sidewalk near the railroad is covered in glass pieces, which is a hazard for people and animals making the sidewalk inaccessible for dog walking. There is also often glass in the grass between the sidewalk and the road, which again is a hazard for animals.
Here in Winslow Farm it appears that almost none of our sidewalks intersect with the road in an ADA compliant manner. My Wife was transitioning from this sidewalk end to the street (East Winslow Farm Drive)and her mobility scooter tipped over dumping her in the road. She sustained three serious wounds which required a trip to the emergency room, where we spent fives hours. I don't know if this is a city issue, Winslow Farm issue, or combination of the two. She is not the only mobility challenged resident here and I would hate to see someone else seriously injured.
Hello, the bump-out at 3rd St and Fairview St caused another flat tire yesterday. Could you repaint and add reflectors? Thanks, Jaclyn Ray
