I don’t know if this is the right place to report this, but this seems like it might be a problem. The owner has covered the entire yard and the tree plot with gravel. It looks like they’ve done some additional planting lately, but the gravel is eventually going to stop the water from getting to both their new plants and to the street trees. I don’t think this is OK/legal. It looks like a student rental.
Line of sight blocked due to tall weeds. I was almost hit by a car I could not see behind the weeds last week. One house was cleared but this one remains! Been an ongoing problem for 3 years!
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.
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.
tree branch has broken off and it falling onto the road and sidewalk a bit, medium sized not huge
The sidewalk from here all the way to the pedestrian crossing at Olcott sucks. It's an awful garbage sidewalk. There's been several reports about it being unsafe, and it's constantly blocked by vegetation. It's narrow and precipitous in places. Anything wider than a sedan risks clipping pedestrians.
Tree roots are pushing up this sidewalk. It's significantly raised -- about a finger's length. Any chance to shave it down so that it's not as much of a hazard? The other side of the street has a similar problem, though to a lesser degree.
Ever since the city installed curb bump-outs for on-street parking some years ago, drivers have been blowing out tires and ruining wheel hubs at the southeast corner of Maxwell Lane and South Fess, usually as they are driving south on Fess and turning east onto Maxwell. I know this issue has come up before, and various solutions have been tried, but something more substantive needs to happen -- either reduce the projection of the curb or get rid of the bump-out altogether. I would estimate 15-20 drivers a year hit this curb. Yesterday, it happened twice. One driver was lucky and just blew out a tire. The second had to call a tow truck, which we see over and over again. Each driver thinks he/she is the only one to do this, so they don't think to tell the city. Please do something to fix this problem. It's costing people time and money on a regular basis. Thanks!
Broken Sidewalk. Upheaval by tree in tree plot. Developing over 3 years. Marked with white arrows some time after March 2022. Could it be prioritized? Thanks.
