I am writing this about the sidewalk area in front of the White House Flower Shop located off of E Winslow Rd. I am a mother with a toddler child and no vehicle so it is necessary for me to use the sidewalks as my child rides in a stroller. I live in Winslow Ridge Townhomes and have to walk to or from there to Henderson St to be able to catch Bloomington Transit. There has been several instances lately that traveling on the sidewalk is nearly impossible with all the snow on the sidewalk. I can appreciate that Henderson Court Apt and Winslow Ridge Townhomes have been able to keep the remaining snow to a minimum, but outside of the White House Flower Shop is always a mess. This morning as I left my home with my child I was forced to pull my stroller backwards through the snow because pushing it led nowhere. On my return home at around 5p.m., after picking up some groceries, I was not able to get through the snow which forced me to have to walk in the street with my toddler in his stroller.
On 6/13 a community member tripped and fell on uneven sidewalk on Sare Road, somewhere between between the Olcott Park path and East Canada Drive. This was during a Parks & Recreation Walking Club event. The sidewalk in this area has some raised, very uneven sections in several places. The woman who fell bruised her knee and hands and had to be driven home, she was unable to finish the planned walk.
Bricks in sidewalk missing
An area of new sod immediately adjacent to the sidewalk and between the sidewalk and street has collapsed (in some places to a depth of 9 inches) in such a way that it is unsafe for bicyclists or pedestrians who may veer off the sidewalk even very briefly. We believe this sod was laid after the ground was dug for installation of the fiber cable for Gigabit Now. We (University Baptist Church) are not certain of the best agency to contact about the problem, and we are hoping that you will either take care of it or direct us to the correct people to contact. If someone chooses to respond to this concern by phone, please note that we have very limited office hours, but they could leave a voice message. Email is actually best. Thank you!

This is a school bus stop area and many people walk here. I moved here 2 years ago and have put $250.000 into the house and property. All is looking good but the sidewalk and curb are in shambles. I edge my lawn and take care to make the area look as good as possible for the neighborhood. But the sidewalk and curb are a hazard to anyone walking on it.
Section of sidewalk has risen 4-5 inches causing a hazard to the neigborhood kid on their bikes- they hit it and it causes an accident. I have seen other spots where the high side has been shaved off to be level? Very easy to spot, between my house 3824 and the neighbors, 3820.
