There is a pile of five overturned scooters right in the middle of the sidewalk. Grant street right outside the library. Are pedestrians expected to clean this up?

The "dismount zones" are not working. They never did work, and now the scooters are an even bigger hazard. I see people riding them on the sidewalks around the square every day. If riders can't be bothered to care on their own, maybe we need some enforcement personnel out there to make them care. If we can have parking meter patrols, then surely we can have sidewalk patrols with authority to issue citations.
316 e 12th St. Three Bird scooter across the sidewalk. 4:30 pm, Nov 20, 2018
Just south of 11th, on the west side of rogers, 4 lime scooters parked on the sidewalk. This is a 4ft path I walk twice a day with my kids (3 abreast), going to fairview. This is a nuissance to us. remove them by 3:30pm or I will.
NW corner of 11th&rogers, 3 bird scooters in the sidewalk. Remove them.
Yesterday I reported these scooters as ticket #166863. There were 3, now there are 2 bird scooters in the walkway on the NW corner of 11th&rogers. Bird did not take care of the problem...the city is gonna get involved, or nah?
I have reported scooters at the NW corner of 11th and rogers on monday and tuesday (see #166882). They left yesterday afternoon, then they came back before this morning. 2x bird.
I really like the new dismount zone signs on the sidewalks at the corners of intersections on Kirkwood. Much easier to notice than the signs on the poles (too high for riders to notice) By the way it looks like someone removed the one on the corner sidewalk at Kirkwood and Indiana so it needs to be replaced. Wish these were placed around the courthouse square too so riders could see them. Like I said I don't think the ones on the poles are useful. They are just too high to be noticed. The signs on the sidewalks are much easier to see. Thanks
