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.

Across from my driveway at 1520 E Maxwell Lane is a tall rotten tree that has been dead for years and has become a safety hazard by shedding limbs onto the sidewalk and street after every storm. It should be removed before somebody gets injured and the traffic on Maxwell Lane impeded.

A new drain on the sidewalk along South Henderson St by the South football practice fields has a raised portion. We are concerned that in the dark (night or mornings) that pedestrians will not notice the raised portion and will trip, fall, end up n the street. Could this be striped some way to announce it's presence?

The ice in front of the old Which-Which / new Raising Kane's is very dangerous. It could use some more salt for sure, part of the sidewalk in front of Chipotle too. It has had little to no tending to.
