- Case Date:

E 3rd at Orange Leaf yoghurt shop. Overgrown hedge blocking sidewalk.
E 3rd at Orange Leaf yoghurt shop. Overgrown hedge blocking sidewalk.
Pedestrian crossing buttons on pole at E 3rd & Woodscrest light inaccessible to power chair due to soft surface (mulch) between sidewalk and pole. This is a common type problem with, for example, grass surface between walk and poles at Country Club & S Rogers, or sheer dropoff between walk and button at Kinser & 46 (yeah, "tell it to the State." -- why won't you?)
Gravel covering sidewalk on 17th looking West toward College is a safety/navigation hazard for power chair users. The photo was taken just below the alleyway behind Square Donuts.
This curb is at the alleyway S of 1818 Apparel Co. on N College. It, and the next 5-6 sidewalk slabs South, represent the last obstacles to power wheelchairs using the sidewalk from Square Donuts to CVS. This trip has become increasingly important for me since my Rx's were transferred as part of the Marsh shutdown on N Kinser.
My neighbors have put a pop-up tent across the sidewalk. They've tied it to the light pole. It's been there for two days.
Bins left out all week at 4 residences between 2nd and 3rd on Eastside. Blocking sidewalk.
The sidewalk along the E side of N. Walnut opposite M.S. park, passing "Running Crab;" rotten R.R. tie retaining wall is falling into the sidewalk. Condition worsens N.B. all the way to the corner at the Hampton Inn.
Gravel washed across sidewalk below Hampton Inn sign on N. Walnut. Iffy power chair traction/steering and pedestrian hazard.
There is no cut out to help those in wheel chairs. This should be an accessible sidewalk.
Fee and 17th - corner of south west sidewalk. I've tripped over this area three times and last winter dislocated my shoulder when I fell on this. Please fix it!
