I took a little tumble on the sidewalk downtown on Kirkwood this morning coming back from the bank. It's just starting to hurt so I thought I'd notify you encase something turns up broken later. I'm not a big fan of those brick sidewalks, they're uneven and slick in the rain and snow.

A sidewalk is really needed on East Allen Street from South Walnut St. to South Henderson St. (Bryan Park). This is a highly travelled road by pedestrians and cyclists (though there is a "bike lane," which is not separated from the road itself). However, parking is allowed on both sides of the streets and I have personally nearly been run over by cars on more than 5 or 6 occasions, as I walk the street every day. Each and every single day, I notice children waiting for the bus, standing on the street exposed to traffic coming both directions. And what's more, this is a main thoroughfare for the entire neighborhood as it runs right up to the main West entrance to Bryan Park, which is the location of the main playgrounds. I see children walking down this street every day to access the playgrounds and it is undeniably an unsafe street given that cars are parked on both sides and traffic is traveling both ways. A sidewalk on at least one side of the street is really, really needed as this has become a serious public safety issue. Thank you.

Over a year ago, a sidewalk was supposed to go in along Fairview Street, between Patterson Drive and Wylie, in McDoel Gardens. This section is very dangerous for kids walking to the school bus stop, especially in the winter with icy roads. Snow piles force kids to walk directly in the road, sharing the road with cars in the dark. All signs appeared that the process was to begin shortly (flags were up, etc.) but after Justin Wykoff's arrest, the project appeared to have stalled. Can you send me an update on this situation? I am concerned for my kids as bad weather approaches and we are still without sidewalks.

Sidewalks at Olcott Park have not been shoveled as of March 8, 2015. Very snowy and icy. Currently 42 degrees and my children and others are trying to play at the park.

I am not sure who to ask about this. I am the head of the neighborhood association Elm Heights. We have had a lot of work done by the gas company both this and last year and we were wondering if they will be patching up all the wholes in the sidewalks and streets and what the time line we can expect? We know the bad weather and winter can be a problem with this and I just need something to pass on to people who are worried they may be responsible. I can send you photos and addresses if you need them. In general it is 2nd street between Lincoln and Henderson, Henderson near 2nd and some other cross streets. Also the parallel street Hunter Ave. Thank you so much, Jenny Southern

On April 6th I reported eight sidewalk problems along the north side of Heather Dr. between Grasstree Ct. and Laurel Ct. I included photos and also mentioned these could be a safety hazard, especially for many of our older residents. The following day I received a call back which was much appreciated. Although some work has been done (see last paragraph), nothing at all was done to the most uneven slab. It is directly across from 700 Heather on the NORTH side of the street near a mailbox cluster. See 701_E_Heather_Dr.jpg. There is a full 2" difference in height. I am reporting this particular one again, because a resident tripped on it April 27th and received bruises and abrasions to her face and hands. Her name is Barbara Wachholz, and she lives at 3708 Grasstree Ct. A neighbor was concerned enough to photograph her face. Fortunately, no bones were broken. I notice some of these raised/uneven slabs were recently beveled or chipped off which could probably help. But I don't believe this was done thoroughly enough to help very much. For example the other end of the slab adjacent to the one I mentioned above wasn't chipped off all the way across. Please advise. Thank you, Marvin Allen, 3907 S. Laurel Ct.
