Someone has spray painted an obscene word in big bright red letters on the wall at David St. and Sare Rd. This word has been on the wall for a couple of weeks and now the neighborhood children are referencing it.

As the owner of Crazy Horse Tavern, I’ve been volunteering for downtown issues for over 25 years. One of my personal goals is to grow the tourism throughout the city for building a stronger economy. But I’m now tackling a problem related to the substantial growth in tourism. It initially seemed reasonable to allow tour busses to park on city street in front of hotels, but there a too many days where half of the available parking on the block is taken by busses. Some days,like today, it’s 100% bus parking g without a single parking space available for a visiting family or business guest in the hotel or even a customer for a downtown shop. This isn’t normal parking management. It’s not good parking management. The busses should be parked in a large lot like the convention center or Assembly Hall (IU groups) I have helped manage a lot of downtown growth issues and this one looks to be easily fixable. Thanks for any help Ron Stanhouse c812-345-1091

Beth Holbrook called about a missing sidewalk linkage on the west side of S.Sare Road from Buttonwood Lane to a point about 250 yards south. She observes that access to the new middle school and park would be served by completing sidewalk. She acknowledges that the sidewalk on the east side of Sare Road would provide access. But it also needs to be completed. Please explore who is responsible for doing sidewalks and when they could be completed. I will notify sidewalk committee of concern.

Not a big problem really and also I don't know which option to use for walking/biking trails so I am using the sidewalk one: a kroger shopping cart is sitting on the pedestrian/bike trail (Polly Grimshaw trail) just east of the bypass and way west of Pete Ellis Drive and parallel to the railroad track. See photo attached.

#168401 case, not resolved. Sorry, but I was pointing to the dead limbs on the east side of Olcott, at 2901, on the pond side of the street. Those remain in place. Thanks, Jim Madison

Follow up on uReport Case #158991: In spring of 2017 I filed a report with the city about the downspout drainage from my neighbor's property (2802 S Forrester), which dispenses rainwater directly onto the sidewalk in front of my house. They were issued a notice by the city, and they cut back the relevant downspout as indicated in the resolution of the ticket. However, thereafter they built a masonry channel from the end of the downspout that continues to direct the rainwater from the downspout onto the sidewalk in front of my property. When it rains moderately or heavily, the sidewalk on my property turns into a river, still, and in the seasonal transition to and from winter, the sidewalk winds up coated with ice. They masonry channel is topped with a plywood cover that is disguised with landscape rocks. I wanted to talk with them about this directly rather than file a report, but for 3 weeks I have not seen them at their house. Their house is reportedly under contract for sale, and I think it only fair that this issue be resolved (ideally by extending the drainage under the sidewalk to the curb so it no longer causes a negative impact on my property) before they sell it, so that new owners do not have to correct something they are not responsible for. Thank you.

My neighbors at 2802 S Forrester, when they re-landscaped their property 10 or so years ago, arranged to have the flow of water from their downspouts released onto the sidewalk at the shared edge of our two lots, which causes a tremendous flow of water onto the sidewalk in front of my property. This deposits debris on my property and creates treacherous conditions in the fall when rain occurs when temperatures are near freezing. This has been an irritant to me since the re-landscaping was complete but only recently did I read section 12.04.020 of the municipal code which would seem to prohibit such a discharge of water. Could you send someone to investigate this situation? The water comes out of two green pipes where our two properties abut the sidewalk on Robins Bow. This week the problem is particularly clear because of all the rain.
