Drainage or Runoff
1315 W 6th ST
- Case Date:
- 2/20/2014
We had a massive overflow of the drainage ditch next to our house after tonight's (2/20) storm. There must be some blockage at the end of the drain because water poured out of the ditch and basically covered our half of our backyard. The ditch either needs to be dug deeper and/or it needs to be cleared of debris in order to assure adequate drainage. We have photos for visual evidence but were unable to upload them through this website. Thank you for your attention to the matter.

Please install traffic lights at Hillside and Highland. At times, it takes forever to be able to turn westbound onto Hillside from Highland because traffic is oftentimes constant. This is a dangerous crossing, and there are many residents and YMCA traffic coming through here.

Business
1316 S Palmer AVE
- Case Date:
- 3/16/2026
There is a full fledged business in operation at 1316 S. Palmer. There are multiple vehicles parked (usually white trucks, vans) and workers are working on them. The city is consistently ignoring this. The neighborhood is now considering the possibility of bribes or other forms of influence that is allowing this business. The neighborhood is also considering starting street business only to gain media attention. This summer we will engage this issue until resolved. If not resolved we will identify the city employees or elected officials who are accepting bribes from this business in order to continue.

Used care repair business still going on. Cars being delivered and picked up on a regular basis, several mechanics working on cars until late at night, continues. Apparently this has been an issue that the city keeps “resolving” but nothing is changing. What is going on? why is this being allowed to continue for years. From the records, this house has had several complaints that the city resolves but remains unchanged.
This individual used the street and parking spaces for his own private used care business.
Property Taxes are way too high for this to be happening.
The person in charge of these complaints is not doing his/her job at all.

Blocked Street

The guy lives in this house, keeps working on cars all up and down the street. Taking other people’s places to park on all street parking. It’s difficult once again to get through the onslaught of cars, he has parked up and down the street. I kicked him out of somebody else’s driveway the other day cause he just decided to park the car in their driveway and it’s one of my properties for my property management. I’m responsible for. It’s ridiculous that several people on this block have expressed their concerned about this yet. It’s still going on. now he’s on as the picture shows, the opposite side of the street working on a truck in front of somebody else’s house that’s not even his general parking area. This is getting frustrating and out of hand I’m going to file a complaint against the city with a petition, signed behind it with everybody else’s name on it because this is not getting dealt with correctly. I’ve ran them off in front of my house, blocking my driveway, and I don’t even live within two houses of him. He’s working on vehicles all throughout the day and we can’t even get through the road sometimes due to doors wide open.
