Can the City require people to fix crumbling sidewalks in front of their houses? The sidewalks along 12th Street are all in good shape except for a single address that has a sidewalk that is so degraded that it's easy to trip and fall, especially in the dark. It would be great if it could be redone - otherwise, someone could get sued...
Is the City responsible for retaining walls alongside walkways or does it fall on adjacent property owners to maintain them? On the Lincoln side of this property there is an old wall that is just about to collapse. It seems that if a team of masons got in there now prior to its failure, they might be able to take it apart somehow and reset it so that it will last another 130 years. But if it were to fall on its own, the stones would likely all break up and be useless trash. Property owner (Parker Rentals) is aware of the potential problem, but they do not seem to care. The surrounding area has many retaining walls that add character to the community. It would be great if this one could be saved.
Could the City install a sidewalk along the west side of Dunn between Cottage Grove and 12th Street? There are also a couple sections in that stretch where there isn't even a sidewalk on the east side of the street, and a lot of people walk down that street even though it is only one-way.
Missing bricks
Some minor brickwork needed in front of Village Deli. Nothing urgent. No obstruction.
Construction sign down. Odd placement, not sure if it fell or is awaiting pickup.
