My next door neighbors at 2100 W 106th St have a bush in the grass area between side walk & street that grows high & wide & blocks the view from driveway to see the traffic on 106th St. It's a busy street & difficult to pull out & back out as is, but with the neighbors bush it makes it even more difficult. It blinds the view and we are concerned of getting in an accident because of it. For last few years it's grown taller & wider & we even talked to the neighbors about it about 1 1/2 yrs ago, but they didn't seem to think it was an issue & did nothing about it. I don't want to be a disgruntled neighbor, but also do not want to get in a car accident from the blinding view, trying to leave my driveway. It is very frustrating. I would like to know what the rules are for planting trees, bushes or plants on the section of grass between the sidewalk & street is & if the neighbors could be requested to remove or trim down the bush.

Traffic sight lines at American Blvd. and the east entrance of Metro Drive are horrible, if not impossible, due to the raised planting bed in the middle of American Blvd. and the bushes growing there. Pulling out from Metro Drive you cannot see oncoming traffic from the west, and making a left turn into Metro Drive you cannot see oncoming traffic from the east. There as an accident right there just about a week ago and every day is a crapshoot, especially d uring prime rush hours. Please trim these bushes down so sighlines can be had.

Hi, I drive a bucket truck for a business on thorton drive. The boom sticks out six feet in front of the truck. When i pull out onto henderson I am almost in the middle of the road before i can see if traffic is coming. My main concern is that a bus or large vehicle could catch the boom and cause an accident.Before I was hoping the city could remove the overgrowth of brush at the intersection to make it safer. Thanks, Ben

The north-west intersection of South Grant and East Allen is so heavily overgrown that it is impossible to see east bound traffic on Allen when heading south on Grant. It is an accident waiting to happen.

1284 S Liberty DR

There is a line of sight issue turning right out the Goodwill Store parking lot. The trees and vegetation makes it very difficult to see oncoming traffic, since Liberty Drive makes a bend right at our access drive. An article was ran in the Bloomington Herald Times by Marci Creps describing how hazardous this intersection is. We would like to have this resolved as quickly as possible, given the bad publicity we have already received from this issue.
