Greetings, We are a contractor for City Parks, providing security. Almost daily our Incident reports are sent to multiple city employees, however, some of the City employees stopped receiving our reports on the 20th of December and some on the 28th of December. We went to our contractor for Incident Reports and they confirmed the reports are being sent out. Also, we have other clients and none of them are reporting an issue. I am attaching last night's Incident Report for Switchyard park as an example. Thank you! Chuck

Similar situation to case #207518. "The Bentley" apartment building on the SE corner of 11th/College has a very bright (and hideously colored) vertical sign right on the corner that is lit up all night long. Is there anything in the city code about illuminated signs? Are they even allowed at residential buildings? What if houses in neighborhoods had such signs broadly announcing the addresses of the houses while being lit up (or maybe even flashing) all night long? This is also an issue at "3-Square" apartments at 916 N. College where there are multiple signs, but they are not nearly as offensive as the others.

Question: what is rhe official name for what i call the "Davis Street Canal?" It conducts water from Sheridan Creek eventually i think to Clear Creek. There are at least two others: one is short, aling Hunter (between Mitchell and Eastside) and another somewhere in the Near West Sude (or maybe Prospect Hill) neighborhood. Thanks!

See case #201777. Did owner ever reply to letter from HAND? It has been almost a year, and nothing has been done. Wall along Lincoln is still in need of attention. Experience with property owner (Parker rentals) has been they will not do anything unless there is a fine involved.

Not sure is this is a HAND issue. The "Beverly" building has installed a *huge* sign on the SW corner of the building that is brightly illuminated all night long and is visible from as far as north of 10th Street. There is no reason for a sign that needs illumination. In fact, there is no reason for a sign at all, at least on the side of the building. It isn't a business that will have night-time hours, and it is in the middle of a generally residential area. Is there any way to regulate this kind of thing, or is the fact that IU is involved mean that the City has no jurisdiction over what they do? The building is already a lot bigger than was imagined, and now they are drawing even more attention to it with an inappropriate, vertical sign.

Resident, working as a rideshare driver, reports observing traffic at the intersection of E 17th St. and N Eagleson Ave. for approximately 20 minutes. During this time several pedestrian near-misses were observed. Resident believes that Rush Week has created a situation where IU students are frequently crossing the road while distracted with their smartphones (i.e., participating in Rush-related activities). Consequently, students are using sidewalks according to existing paint markings on the road. Although 2 crosswalk curb ramps have been removed recently, paint for those crosswalks is still on the road. The paint is also impeded by mud in parts, which can be difficult for drivers to see. Students are prompting traffic to stop at 4 separate locations along E 17th St. at irregular intervals. Resident is requesting removal of old sidewalk markings and/or posting of a crosswalk closure sign.
