Overgrown grass (over 4ft) in backyard
Overgrown grass (over 4ft) in backyard
The curb / street edge is breaking apart and falling into the street. I've reported this more than a year ago and it's breaking more and more. It is a hazard. The section is just east of my driveway. Please advise, I don't want anyone getting hurt.
Once again the police have had to come into our area, following a street fight along the sidewalk between our homes. Just 2 nights ago shots were being fired less than 12ft. from my grandson's bedroom at 1am on that sidewalk. Police did find 1 of the 6 teens. Yesterday the fight landed two young adults in my driveway seeking refuge from an out of control violent young man. I'm disabled on crutches, and when I tried to stop the attacker from coming on my property he threatened serious harm to me and my grandson. Just before it got deadly, police with a K-9 arrived. Thank you BPD. The cut-thru sidewalk has become a danger and a menace to all of us and it is used mainly for bad activity. It needs to be closed, and the broken steps up to 12th street need to go. Many of us are elderly, disabled, and tired of these constant problems. City leaders NEED to come and see this area, and the trash, broken steps, empty drug needles, etc. We need help beyond having to call BPD all the time. Please take this seriously before someone is not just assaulted again, but perhaps shot. 2 gun incidents this spring is 2 too many. Thank You.

Yard has not been mowed since May of 2024. It’s an absolute eyesore.
This overgrown yard has not been mowed in months. Weeds are 18-20 inches high.
Black Chevy SUV, backed into parking space. Front passenger window covered with garbage bag, rear area appears to be used for junk storage. No license plates. It's been sitting there for almost 2 months and hasn't moved, no effort to do repairs if that's what is needed. Owners have 2 other vehicles they drive instead. Neighbors don't have parking in the evening and have to park at other buildings. It needs to be towed.

The sidewalk along the west side of Walnut street between the train tracks and the CVS is in bad shape. There are some large pieces of concrete that have come loose and have created several large tripping hazards.
