I received a follow up call from a HAND inspector on August 17 regarding overgrowth behind the new apartment complex at 714 North Walnut. She indicated that the project manager would have the overgrowth cleaned up possibly by the end of the week. It's now almost 2 weeks later and this area still hasn't been cleaned up.
Tenants storing trash can on street (NW corner of property).
Last year, the section of the sidewalk at Washington and Cottage Grove was replaced, but the workers left a trench in the road that collects water and breeds mosquitos. I couldn't help but notice when similar work was done this summer on 10th street and a layer of pavement was laid alongside the sidewalk to fill the trench there. Probably just an oversight but it'd be nice to get this job completed.

Water pools on NE corner of 11th/Lincoln intersection (formerly a sidewalk) and freezes. This is dangerous. Water pools at same location in summer and causes swampy conditions.
Yard plantings have taken over sidewalk near the intersection of Lincoln and 11th. It is now impassible.
Property owner should not be allowed to continue renting property until the sidewalk has been repaired to allow pedestrian traffic to pass by safely.
There is a mound of black plastic bags full of trash on the SE corner of this property, on the 11th Street side.
Sidewalk on west side of Lincoln, just north of 11th is below street grade and floods every time it rains.
Sidewalk repair desperately needed. Water accumulates in a small lake on what once was a sidewalk.
