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.

There are not any street lights in the alley behind my house. We had a break-in this week in the back of our house, and I think having street lights in the alley could have prevented it. Being back there at night is very creepy, and anyone could come attack us at night when we are trying to get in our back door. For safety reasons, I feel like it is important to that back there.

The alleyway that runs behind our house at 422 East Cottage Grove, between 10th and Cottage Grove has been extremely dangerous this year. It is very dark and my car, and two of my roommate's cars have been broken into. There was also a car that suspiciously caught on fire and completely burned two nights ago. The alley behind my house is by far the most dangerous part of walking home at night, and I don't feel safe going to my car parked back there at night. We have also had attempted break-ins and many thefts from our porch and surrounding the house.

Street light has been on 24hr/day for some time--timer issue?

Street light is out. Was reported 2 weeks ago and not fixed. This is a bus stop for school children, both elementary and secondary. Since the time change it is much more hazardous. Would hate to see an accident.
