Received from a Resident in Van Buren Township. I live off Sims lane and have a question? When you try to get out onto Leonard Springs off of Sims there are a bunch of weeds / shrubbery/ trees that totally block the view to the South. So you have to inch out and hope to not get hit in the meantime. And with the way people fly over that hill south of Sims, it can be dangerous. So my question is how can we get those trimmed? It is practically on the road, so not sure if it’s the county or homeowner? I don’t want to cause any problems but also don’t want there to be an accident there. Sims lane traffic plus the Heatherwood traffic makes for a busy intersection. I’ve lived there for 30yrs and this is the worst I’ve seen those weeds / shrubs, whatever it is. Any help would be appreciated!

The curb on Union street, between 10th and 3rd streets needs to be repainted the caution yellow It is almost completely gone and time after time as a student living at Union Street Center I have seen students park illegally in the 2-hour parking on that street blocking accessible sidewalks because the paint is gone. As an RA there, I have brought this up with my supervisor and he instructed me to contact the city, as it is an issue that should be handled by the city rather than IU itself.

The right side of the street has no parking signs that can't be seen and no part of the curb is yellow. Starting at the first house as it curves numerous cars like to park at night on that side going up to spring Street. From the first house up 2 the first stop sign have people. Parking on the no parking side. We've asked them 2 stop, but maybe because this is a dead end street the city hasn't addressed the brush blocking the signs And no yellow curbs. My girlfriend hit a truck parked illegally at night last week. Sorry. To ramble but we need this addressed B4 someone gets hurt/ and or winter gets here

Workers were grinding sidewalk at this location around noon creating large, visible clouds of silica dust. Per OSHA regulations, concrete grinding requires use of a vacuum or water to control silica dust emissions. Clearly these controls were not being used or were malfunctioning. This was happening right next to a school. Children shouldn't get silicosis because of a cement grinder's negligence. This is the second time I've reported the issue of uncontrolled cement dust from sidewalk griding, please do something about it.
