In front of 600 and 516 W. Allen St. The sidewalk is very poor and dangerous here. One slab is sticking above another at a hard angle. Whenever it rains, this area always floods a large pool.
I live at the corner of 14th and Woodburn. I have called the police 2x in the past month or so. about cars parking in the yellow which is kind of faded, but also where the sidewalk is for you to cross. if people are coming off the dead end hill of woodburn you cant see around if someone parks there, and with 14th street not having to stop and it being busy this is dangerous. Not to mention 3 school buses pick and drop kids off there. Some of the buses have to make the turn off left on to 14th street which makes it difficult for them if someone is parked there. I hate having to call the police everytime as they are busy I am sure. But its starting to be an everyday problem. I shouldn't have to go around a car just to get my kid on and off the bus when I am clearly in the cross walk area of the sidewalk. I would like to see the curb painted again, and maybe a no parking from here to corner since it is dangerous for us who are coming off the hill to see around. Also maybe an increase in patrol in this area to deter people from parking there. Thanks Ashley
The sidewalk on 2nd St between Arbutus and Eastside has large sections of hardened paving material that is a tripping hazard and an eyesore. It appears to be from a road repair there (perhaps where the water main broke) and may have been thrown up on the sidewalk with snow removal.
Sidewalk is cracked and uneven, also there is some slippery gravel on the sidewalk. Grating over drainage is missing as well.
On April 6th I reported eight sidewalk problems along the north side of Heather Dr. between Grasstree Ct. and Laurel Ct. I included photos and also mentioned these could be a safety hazard, especially for many of our older residents. The following day I received a call back which was much appreciated. Although some work has been done (see last paragraph), nothing at all was done to the most uneven slab. It is directly across from 700 Heather on the NORTH side of the street near a mailbox cluster. See 701_E_Heather_Dr.jpg. There is a full 2" difference in height. I am reporting this particular one again, because a resident tripped on it April 27th and received bruises and abrasions to her face and hands. Her name is Barbara Wachholz, and she lives at 3708 Grasstree Ct. A neighbor was concerned enough to photograph her face. Fortunately, no bones were broken. I notice some of these raised/uneven slabs were recently beveled or chipped off which could probably help. But I don't believe this was done thoroughly enough to help very much. For example the other end of the slab adjacent to the one I mentioned above wasn't chipped off all the way across. Please advise. Thank you, Marvin Allen, 3907 S. Laurel Ct.

The bike lane between the bus stop and sidewalk (across the street from TIS Bookstore) is filled with sand. I'm guessing the street sweepers can't get into this narrow lane, but this is dangerous for cyclists riding through here and should be cleaned up. Thanks!
Directly in front of Amrit India Restaurant- sidewalk at large lamp post is broken apart, is uneven, and has ledges that someone could easily trip over
This short connector sidewalk is becoming impassable due to overgrown vegetation. It is a really useful path to avoid biking up the hill on Winslow in traffic.
In front of 1006 E 1st, there is a hole between the sidewalk and tree plot that I'm concerned may be quite large and have the potential to compromise the integrity of the sidewalk. It's not visible from the road - just when you're standing next to the tree in the tree plot there. It may not be a problem, but it might be a good idea to have someone take a look.
sidewalk at 1231 Allendale Drive is not even. Tree root has uprooted part of the sidewalk. Can it be fixed? Dangerous for people walking or running or with a baby stroller.
