Hello, the bump-out at 3rd St and Fairview St caused another flat tire yesterday. Could you repaint and add reflectors? Thanks, Jaclyn Ray

The sidewalk in front of 705 W. 13th street has a big trip hazard from recent work that has been done. Please fix this. Thank you.
Broken up sidewalk on 522 W. 4th needs to be repaired or repalced. It's very easy to trip on.
Vegetation overgrowth from 709 W. 6th to 1125 W. 6th. Specific locations and photos attached.
Sidewalk tripping hazard: Grate cover missing for part of stormdrain trench that crosses sidewalk in front of 710 E. Maxwell Ln.
Severely deteriorated sidewalk. No longer accessible.
Filthy noisome liquid onto sidewalk.
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!
Yellow curb painting needs to be done on W. 3rd Street between Fairview and Maple Streets (704-724 W. 3rd on north side of street; 715-731 on south side). Nearly all other blocks in this area were done a few months ago, but for some reason this block was not done and old yellow paint is nearly invisible. (See attached photo example of curb at mid-block alley point.) As a result, people are parking too close to alleys, driveways, etc., creating hazards for others. Thanks for your help!
Retaining wall is collapsing onto sidewalk, blocking wheelchair use. Owner has not maintained wall - pieces have been haphazardly thrown back onto the property over the last couple years since the house degenerated into a rental.
