I reported this streetlight outage July 24, 2014 to Duke Energy. Despite repeated followup calls on my part, and some trucks / people coming to the neighborhood, it remains out. Can you please make them fix it? I don't have the time and energy to continue calling and being put on hold / being told I would get a call back and then people leaving message with no callback info... I'm fed up (and in the dark). I understand some delays but this is beyond reasonable. Original report is attached.

I would like to request that the "volunteer" workers that are cutting new trails into a state-designated nature preserve across from my home be stopped immediately. The state designates "nature preserve" land to be preserved for natural ecological functions. It's the highest protection the state can place on natural land. These "volunteers" are cutting new trails which increases the spread of invasive species. The ecological integrity of these precious few acres is already compromised by the proximity to homes and these new and poorly designed trails are adding to the stress and degradation of this natural space. They are using lawn mowers and power tools which disrupt nesting bird habitats. They cut one Asian Honeysuckle allowing several more to take its place. Trash bags with refuse are left for weeks by these volunteers. I understand that the intentions are to remove invasives but what is actually occurring does nothing but spread the same invasives. It is a misguided effort and needs to cease immediately. I have a Master's degree in Park and Public Land Management from IU and have seen this happen numerous times in other locations. In this case it seems that a small group of volunteers desired a walking trail next to their neighborhood and began "volunteering" to create these trails. While not a big deal on private land, these particular lands are designated by the state for the highest protection possible. I would be more than happy to discuss this further and suggest some alternative activities for this group of volunteers. You have my email and I hope we can come to a resolution that will stop the infringement of these state-protected lands. Thank you for your time.

Had an arborist out on another street tree (Japanese Cherry) that needs pruned badly and some dead removed, but is otherwise healthy. While there he looked at a Red Sunset Maple that I thought had a lot of dead in it, just in the last year. His appraisal was that it needed removed and since a street tree he suggested I give the city a call.

Vines and weeds are overgrown and blocking sidewalk adjacent to property owned by city below storm drain pump station on the Southwest corner of N. Ramble Rd West and E. Russian Dr. Vines and weeds along fence and property owned by city block sidewalk access, forcing people to walk on street on a blind curve creating a life safety hazard. The city routinely cut back the overgrowth several times each Summer, but has not addressed this safety issue this Summer.

We're almost at 48 hours since the beginning of snowfall, I believe our street (Lakewood Ct.) has yet to see any type of plowing. Lakewood Drive and Ramble Road in our neighbourhood are thoroughly clean, as a point of reference, meaning there has been activity in our neighbourhood.
