The sidewalk on the NE corner of Forrest and 11 is not accessible. It has a severely steep grade and bank (one corner is much higher than the opposite). I would not travel along the block on the North side of 11 between Forrest and Walnut Grove because of it.
There is a lot of vegetation growing across the sidewalk covering more than half the sidewalk and it's invasive stuff, so it should be pulled not just cut back. This extends along the city owned property and somewhat to the adjacent home owner's property.
Overgrown vegetation on the north side of E First St is blocking the sidewalk
Sidewalk along eastbound 13th Street is rough and uneven between N Forrest Ave and N Walnut Grove.
On July 20, 2018 I sent a request to this department regarding an accessibility / safety issue related to a sidewalk and crosswalk (Case #165230). It was opened by Melissa O'Neil on July 20, 2018, but I was never notified of any consideration taken. Might it be possible to have a response provided from someone in the department?
On the west end of the new construction on the NW corner of 17th&dunn, there is a gap. At the start of the construction they demolished more sidewalk than they built at the end of it.
Crabapple tree has grown over and down onto the sidewalk in front of 1700 E Camby Lane. Sidewalk is impassable. Sidewalk continuing around corner of same property is impinged upon by burning bush shrubs.

Hey, all. I'm at 4021 E. Morningside Drive. Unfortunately I've been experiencing some drainage issues at my corner since the installation of a wheelchair ramp for the sidewalk. There was no issue prior. Terrific having the ramp for folks, plus the earlier sidewalk, but unfortunately it has no lip on it at all. As you can see in the photo, the street is essentially level with part of my yard now, allowing even the smallest rain to flood the corner. I'd love to grow grass but am having difficulties because of the situation. There was grass prior, but someone crashed into the streetlamp, and when it was replaced, the ground got torn up a bit. Beyond my yard, a small pool exists along the corner until it dries out as well, as it is unable to pass on through. Also sediment as you can see in the photo (taken tonight a few hours after the end of today's misting) is washed into the street with each rain. Please see if there can be just the smallest bit of lip and/or incline added with the ramp/sidewalk to keep the water moving instead of creating a muddy corner. Thank you for any help! (Or ideas!) Any chance you all might have a square foot of sod that is fairly water tolerant that can just be placed down there? Might solve my issue without any need for changing anything with the concrete assuming it takes root. I appreciate the consideration and help. There is also a bus stop right at the corner, so more than just helping me, it keeps the bus waiters from standing in the mud.
