In response to uReport case #178550, if the property owner has had to repeatedly paint over graffiti, then perhaps the built environment could be examined to see if any improvements could be made that would benefit the property owner as well as residents. A walk down that street at night reveals pitch black darkness. There is a light at the T intersection of Fairview and 11th, but the illumination does not reach around the bend in Fairview. The property has a light in their lot which actually causes the sidewalk on Fairview to be even darker in contrast. It has never felt safe as a pedestrian or cyclist but that can be remedied by personal use of lights. However, having the street illuminated could help to make it less hospitable for delinquent behavior as well as the wonderful bonus of increased safety for non-motorist travelers. Lastly, vehicles regularly speed down the decline on 11th, fail to stop at the stop sign, and continue around the bend on Fairview. I would think that increased illumination would be helpful to those motorists who are already driving recklessly. Thank you.
Street light is flickering badly.
There is a streetlight out on midblock on 8th street between Grant and Lincoln.
Street light out again. Fire hydrant on opposite side of street.
This light is missing the metal plate at the base. Wires exposed. I am not sure if this is a City issue or Duke Energy. I can report this to Duke this week if need be.
Street light out. S side of courthouse.
Multiple street lights are going out/flashing in the location provided. Rogers St between the BLine trail and 8th St has two bad lights. The first is close to the Cook building and the other is closer to the BLine Trail. The BLine Trail has one light that is directly back from the bad light by the Cook building which is by the back end of their parking lot by the trail. 8th and Rogers has a light out on the North West side of the intersection. 8th Street by the BLine trail, alongside the side of the cook building also has a light that is bad. Also, the new parking garage has a light in the top of the stairwell that flashes very brightly and if you are walking along the BLine trail as it passes over 8th Street it startles you and somewhat blinds your sight and I feel this is somewhat unsafe for pedestrians along the trail.
