Can't zone in on the location. It's the north-south alley running from Atwater to Hunter, just east of the Subway on Atwater, right before 914 Atwater, about halfway down. Where the pavement turns to gravel, there is a bad drop-off that could do real damage if a driver didn't see it (under snow or in the dark).

this is at 701 S. Lincoln Street on the corner of Lincoln and Wiley. The bike path sign in front of my house is leaning over the sidewalk again and blocking the side walk. Someone keeps doing this. I would appreciate if it could be secured or removed. There is a large hole in the ground. thank you

This sidewalk at the southwest corner of 1st and High (about 30 yards west of High) has a cutout for a driveway but has for months years been a slippery mudpit/bumpy weed/dirt ditch. Please fill in the sidewalk so walking (and wheelchairs etc) can navigate the sidewalk safely (and avoid the 24/7 nuisance of dogs/pets hounding passersby across the street). Many thanks, Michael O'Connell
Leaf Collection

Mulched leaves can be emptied between the basketball court and the sidewalk behind the Lutheran church at East Third and Smith road. Mulch will be used at their garden nearby. A few loads of leaves were put there last winter. The leaves will be moved with a bucket loader. The leaf pickup driver in Park Ridge this week was agreeable if his supervisor approves.

Pete Ellis Drive West side sidewalk from Amy Lane to 3rd has large cracks, pothole and many walking neighborhood residents with walkers, canes or just trying to get to Marsh or KFC or McDonalds or the Mall have twisted ankles or fallen due to poor upkeep. Since many apartment dwellers walk everywhere, please ask the sidewalk committee to review the issue. I told Councilman Spechler several months ago and he is retiring. Thank you for a supporting active walkers by providing safe sidewalks.

City plow left a barrier of snow and ice at the edge of our driveway and we cannot move it alone. We cannot get out by ourselves by car. In the past 27 years, the city plow used our cul de sac as a turn-around location and NEVER before left snow at the front of our driveway. Help. We're not physically able to move the snow barrier that was left by the plow. We're at the south end of S. Brooks, one block east of the junction of High and Covenanter.

Snow clearance - big ice boulders left at foot of driveway making it hazardous for me to back out. USUALLY cul-de-sace cleared much better, so I hate to complain but I have to go to school Monday. The cold temps make it difficult to break up and I am 65. so. . .
