The Solid Waste District hours are terrible. I was just turned away at 5:34pm as were a bunch of others (cars lined up behind me trying to leave the lot, so they expected it to be open too). If the hours were friendly to the people trying to recycle they would be open MORE on the weekends, not less. And they would be open MORE after 5pm, not open during 9-5. Unless you're trying to pick up recycling primarily from servers and bartenders, these hours do not make sense.

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.

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.

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.

My question is about the lack of mowing in the middle of Sherwood Oaks Park. Is the plan for this park to make the old football field into woods? The trees in there are several years old now and beginning to shade the "trail" around the park. Shoudn't someone bush-hog this part of the park? One of the things I have always enjoyed about this park is the black raspberries that grow on the western side of the old field. The new trees in the middle are starting to shade this area, and soon those berries will fade away, as they prefer "edges" with sun to the east of them. The same sort of thing is happening in Olcott park, so I am guessing that this is part of your plan, but if it is not a real plan, can someone come and cut all that brush down? Thanks! Kim
