The street sidewalk bordering the tennis courts in Southeast Park becomes miry after it rains, forcing us to detour to avoid very muddy feet and paws when we walk our dogs. The sidewalk appears to have sunk. It needs to be cleaned and some sort of barrier installed to check the erosion that is responsible for covering the walk, perhaps just a wooden barrier. If someone could look into rectifying this, it would be much appreciated.
My neighbor is putting out poison of some kind and I have outdoor cats. So far two chipmunks have been poisoned and one is dead, the other is dying as I write this. I am very concerned for the safety of our cats and dog. I too am upset by the cruel poisoning of these innocent chipmunks. Who do I contact about this? This neighbor has done this before, year after year. I have heard them discussing it. One of our cats was recently very ill and nearly died. We now believe he got into the poison or ate an animal that had been poisoned. What can we do? Thank you, Lisa Cameron and Caroline Pynes.
This photo was taken this evening, between rainstorms, from the Stull Street parking lot, looking at the North shelter. I saw one car drive from Stull Street into the park and turn right up the sidewalk. Good luck!
Several deep potholes in asphalt in front of driveway at 1030-1033 S. Ballantine. Holes were caused by city vehicles when sewage pipes were installed last year and made worse by garbage trucks. Please fix. Thanks!!
The stoplight at the intersection of Adams & 2nd St (Bloomfield Rd)(by the Farm Bureau Co-OP) stays red, I timed it one time 5 minutes. I turn right from Adams onto 2nd St & it is posted no turn on red so this is very frustrating it takes so long for it to turn.
the stop light at 2nd street and Adams if you are on Adams street turning on to 2nd street stays red for 5 minutes. that is a long time to wait to go thru light
Since the traffic light on 2nd (Bloomfield) and Oakdale Square has been changed it has been creating quite the backup for cars attempting to turn onto Bloomfield. It appears that the lights are now timed to 37, which means that cars driving on Bloomfield speed through the Oakdale square light going much faster than 40. Further, it is now common to see more than 7 cars waiting to turn left onto Bloomfield from Oakdale drive. This creates a backup for those turning left and turning right. The old timing pattern worked sufficiently in that it slowed down the traffic on Bloomfield which regularly goes faster than 40, and it was easier to get on the road from Oakdale. Please consider untying that light to the 37 intersection.
Light cycles on and off (for long periods of time)
The intersection of Winslow Road and Allendale is unsafe. As a resident of Sherwood Oaks, weekly I witness people driving through the stop signs on Winslow Rd. or not obeying right of way. In addition, there is no safe way for pedestrians to cross Winslow from Allendale to the multi-use trail that is on the North side of Winslow (leading to the Winslow Sports Park and YMCA). This is a very wide intersection and it is not one that motorists easily see pedestrians because of the width. A flashing light, a pedestrian crossing sign, or pedestrian crossing painted stripes on the roadway would help. Sherwood Oaks and neighboring areas have many walkers who use the crossing and it is not safe to do so. In particular for children who cross the street to the park on foot or bike.
I couldn't choose a location - this graffiti is in the alley behind 612 W. Kirkwood Ave. This property gets tagged frequently. I'm submitting 2 reports since I can only upload 1 photo. I have already cleaned this off of my fence since it does deter more acts if it is kept as clean as possible. This destruction of property needs to be taken more seriously in this town. It really looks horrible.
