There is a skunk carcass on the sidewalk just south of 527 S. Washington St. (South of 2nd Street, on the East side of Washington St.)
I walked there this morning around 10:00. The skunk had probably been killed on the street within the past 12 hours, and then something had dragged it onto the sidewalk.
It would be good if someone could remove the carcass. There is a skunk odor over the neighborhood, and the carcass has been torn apart quite a bit.
Thanks very much.

Doesn't appear the grass is getting mowed alongside E. 3rd in front of the Jewish community center between the street and sidewalk. Can you please request this be mowed? Thank you. Also there is some smattering of trash around there and a bit further east.

Is it possible to have a crosswalk painted on 3rd at Rose? Today I saw a blind person trying to make the crossing. Per the email below, a few years ago, it seemed this was a possibility. Yes. There will be marked crosswalks on 3rd at Rose.

Thanks for the response. I have noticed the bike stripes. My concern is crossing 3rd at Rose as a pedestrian. Is there any chance of a crosswalk there?
Thanks,
Hannah

Subject: uReport request
Good morning,
Thank you for your uReport request regarding Rose Avenue. At this point, the likelihood of a sidewalk on Rose Avenue is very low. You probably have noticed changes on 3rd Street as a result of the City's Greenways Implementation Plan, however. Rose Avenue in the segment you describe is designated as a neighborhood greenway as well. So you will see some additional signage and striping at the 3rd & Rose intersection if you haven't already.
Thank you again for your uReport request.
Thanks,
Adrian

I am the homeowner at 3817 S Woods Edge Bend. Can the city repair my sidewalk? My insurance company is saying this is necessary, and I don't know how to get this done.

Not sure who takes care of this but the trees in the tree plot. Between Woodburn Ave and Walnut St on 14th Street need a major trim if possible. It makes it somewhat difficult if you are walking down the sidewalk. Or driving down the road way. Thanks!
Sidewalk Requests

Thank you in advance for reading my inquiry. I would like to suggest a sidewalk due to a safety concern that effects children and disabled persons. Referring to the intersection at E Rogers Road and the Stands Drive. There is no sidewalk along this street connecting the stands road sidewalk to the crosswalk at the roundabout at the bottom of the hill (i.e., the area on the south side of E Rogers Road). Moreover, the sidewalk on the other side of the street is completely inaccessible for those with impaired motor function or wheelchairs (there is a large hill with steps only and no ramp). There are two major concerns here: (1) there is no possible way for a disabled person with a wheelchair to travel on E Rogers road (from the roundabout at the bottom of the hill up to the stands drive). (2) There is no way for families and children to safely walk to Child's elementary from this location (the Stands dr). Given that E Rogers road is a busy street with limited visibility for drivers and no crosswalk exists at the intersection of the Stands drive and E Rogers Road, it is extremely dangerous for children and families that wish to walk their children to the designated elementary school - Child's Elementary. This is the only direct walking path to Child's Elementary for all of the constituents that leave in the Stands neighborhood. There is no sidewalk on the south side of E Rogers Rd to connect the Stands Dr with the crosswalk at the bottom of the hill at the roundabout. Several constituents have expressed a safety concern. I also witnessed one woman and child almost get hit by a car at this busy intersection as they attempted to cross the street. I'd be happy to answer any additional questions. Thank you for reviewing my request.

There is a significant amount of vegetation encroaching into the sidewalk along the northeast corner of the High Street roundabout. We use this sidewalk to connect from our Sycamore Knolls neighborhood over to the Jackson Creek trail, and it has become extremely difficult for our young kids to navigate this on their bikes. Can this please be trimmed back?

This is a continuing problem at 601 S. Woodlawn (the address above is as close as I could get on your map). Two weeks ago two large dead trees were causing a hazard, dropping limbs. Trees are covered with vines but have been dead for a long time. They continue to drop dead limbs. There is also a bad patch of poison ivy near the sidewalk, creating yet another hazard.
