Large pile of debris. Also invasives returning in force to strangle the pine tree and starting to block the sidewalk.
Yew bush/tree has grown out so far that it halfway blocks the sidewalk. This makes for a dangerous situation at night because the sidewalk is in really bad shape at the same location. Those two things together pose a major trip hazard if people have to navigate around the yew in the dark and also have to watch their step on the crumbling sidewalk.
Limb down on sidewalk and a tiny bit into the street, just west of the intersection of Indiana Ave and 6th St, on the north sidewalk.
Within the Bentley Court neighborhood the city street and sidewalks are blocked by overhanging trees. It is mostly in the middle of the neighborhood along Abby Lane. By the post office boxes and across the street. You can't miss it. You might want to drive around the small neighborhood a bit to see other spots where the sidewalks are blocked. Probably a 30 min job at most. Thanks so much. The main entrance island with three trees are fine...they were trimmed last Fall.
Sidewalk in between 608 and 616 S Eagleson is littered with trash and partially obstructed by overgrown weeds.

Sidewalk blocked by fiber truck. Workers told me they did not have to put up signs and barricades and proceeded to yell at me
Poison ivy growing onto the sidewalk between 1114 Nancy St and the property to the north of it
At corner of S Morton and W Howe streets the shrubbery growth continues up to the street curb - which both blocks the sidewalk access along Morton as well as creates a blind spot for any traffic turning from Howe onto Morton. I was nearly hit by a FedEx truck yesterday because of the blocked view while at that corner.
