HOLE IS APRX 3INCH X 3INCH BUT IS VERY DEEP
The pavement on Park, just south of the intersection with Wilson, is crumbling. There are several areas with no pavement at all, just gravel.
(Not really "street repair" but I couldn't find the right category): The eastbound Stop sign on Maxwell @ Highland, in Elm Heights, is OFTEN ignored. I have seen cars race right through it without even the pretense of slowing down. On foot, I have jumped out behind the car as it sped on, waving my hands and shouting "STOP SIGN!!", and once a driver waved an acknowledgment. Another time, driving north on Highland, I turned and followed the offender, honking and blinking my lights hoping s/he would notice that someone had noticed and be alert next time. The Stop sign is quite visible, not obscured by overhanging trees, so I am stumped. But I wonder if it could be moved closer to the road, enlarged, painted (the post too) a more neon/catchy red, and/or moved to the CENTER of the intersection (tricky for the snowplows, I know), and/or a "Stop-sign alert" sign added well before, or maybe it could be removed altogether with appropriate alerts posted for the north/south drivers, which might be safer than assuming people will stop. This is a potentially lethal situation for drivers, bikers, and walkers in a very pedestrian-heavy neighborhood. Thanks.
The pavement from this intersection going south and ultimate out to 3rd street has enormous potholes and misalignment of the pavement surrounding the in street storm drains. I don't know how much of this is private or public but it nearly took out the undercarriage of my car and I was only going 15 miles an hour.
Several potholes at the entrance to meadowcreek apartments on sare rd

On West Kirkwood and Elm there is roughly an 8 inch deep pothole. Someone on a motorcycle just reported that they almost hit it and crashed.
Several potholes around Arlington Heights school some in the beginning of the road others around the circle drive
