Near the north west corner of my property (801 S. Anita St) there is an uncovered opening to fibre optic conduit. I reported this to a non-city contact for the company (project manager Richard __Heart(?) phone number is 517-302-1270)a Few weeks ago but no action has been taken. Same gentleman to whom I reported some lawn damage caused by their horizontal boring machine, much earlier. Also no action.

Westbound traffic on 2nd Street are trying to turn into the new Rockets Convenience Store. I've been in the left turn-lane for Patterson, and someone crossed the double-yellow line to make his own "turn lane" to go into Rockets.
The way the entry is shaped there should be no left turn into the facility. Westbound traffic should turn on Patterson and access Rockets the back way.
There have been other posts on social media about this. There needs to be a "No Left Turn" sign or something there - it's a prime spot for an accident.

117 S. Heritage Rd. A friend visited this morning. I stood by my door to see her back up from my driveway, two cars approached. Those two expected she surely will yell, they just keep going, and my poor friend who can’t see through the vehicle parked on the street, just keep backing. I was holding my breath, luckily those two drivers kindly stopped and let her go first. Oh, my goodness, thanks God again. When the inspector was here, I almost offered her to sit in my 2001 Toyota Camry to take a picture. I can see everything clearly when I stand by my driveway, but when I sit in that low sit, I can’t see anything in the back of neighbor’s vehicle. Sooner or later there ought to be an accident. I just wonder who’s responsibility going to be? Why is so hard to deal with this problem? Also I noticed more cars parked along the street. We are not too far from IU, and have two bus routes to IU also. It’s closer to park here than Stadium, besides it’s free. Oh, my!

Traffic is restricted to one lane on 19th St. from Washington St. up to Lincoln St. There should be NO PARKING on South side of street along 19th St. in the section. It is dangerous and inconvenient.

Many drivers passing East or West on Dodds do not realize that Lincoln Street (one-way, Northbound) traffic does not have a stop sign. I live on this corner, and work from home in sight of this intersection, and I see many many close calls, as well as accidents as traffic coming full speed North on Lincoln are suddenly confronted with drivers on Dodds who have stopped, and then started into the intersection, assuming they have the right of way.
Could we possibly get "cross traffic does not stop" added to the Dodds stop signs? I doubt that the accident reports fully reflect the dangers.

The bump out curbs are a hazard to vehicles because they are not well marked in advance of approach. Vehicles are flattening tires and could cause a hazard to pedestrians from loss of control of the vehicle.

The curbs for the new bump-outs on Weatherstone need painted a bright color. It is hard for drivers to see the change in the road, especially at night, and if hit, would cause vehicle damage.

Hoping to have a street sweeper come for the dried dirt/muddy mess that was left from fiber optic internet installation on this portion of Hunter. Quite a mess. Not sure it will be taken care of by rain as it is thick in parts.
