I am the philanthropy chair for a large organization on IU's campus and wanted to work with the city on finding a location where we could hold an event to benefit the boys and girls club.. An old baseball field would be perfect. Please feel free to email or call me so i can get in contact with anyone who could help.
A new drain on the sidewalk along South Henderson St by the South football practice fields has a raised portion. We are concerned that in the dark (night or mornings) that pedestrians will not notice the raised portion and will trip, fall, end up n the street. Could this be striped some way to announce it's presence?
There is a metal rod that is sticking up out of the curb right as you enter Rally's
Not a large northside pothole but DEEP on a somewhat narrow street w/parking.
At the crosswalk from the Rail to Trail to the B-Line trail, by Burger King on the Southside on West Country Club Road. I almost ran over a girl crossing the street. The stop sign is very high and elevated. It is hard to see and very confusing, if you’re not familiar with what it is. I didn't know I was supposed to stop. I have no problem stopping there; I just think it is important that you put regular, large sized stop signs there. It is very dangerous the way it is now. That way a motorist knows to stop. Especially out of town motorists that aren't used to the new weird signs. The girl was too beautiful to be getting run over by a car. It wasn't her fault; just the sign was confusing and hard to even see. I think this is a cheap answer to a problem that could really hurt someone. I don't usually complain about things. But, I felt this to be important and actually dangerous.
The signage for the intersection of Arbutus and Atwater is damaged. The sign on the top of the pole is bent and turned and looks like it is about ready to fall off.
The underpass just northwest of Bender Lumber has more graffiti as well as the overpass on Madison/Rogers just south of 14th street.
Overgrown weeds and grass.
Apartment building (Hyatt Place) construction on S. 4th Street between College and Madison has been frequently blocking traffic or limiting it to one lane near the B-Line for the past 8-12 months. There is rarely anybody directing traffic (and if there is, it is usually a construction worker who only sometimes has a handheld stop sign). Construction vehicles often dart out into the street during high traffic times (morning and evening work rushes) and block entrance to nearby apartment buildings. Furthermore, lack of barricades or proper containment causes debris, shrapnel, and other detritus to spill into the street from construction vehicles and dumpsters, often causing hazardous conditions for drivers and vehicles. My own vehicle was recently damaged by stray debris (which was impossible to avoid) and may even be totaled as a result. This also creates dangerous conditions for pedestrians on the sidewalks and makes it impossible for pedestrians on the B-Line to see oncoming traffic before crossing 4th street.
