Weeds severely overgrown, line of sight at corner is impaired both for vehicles and pedestrians. Unable to walk along sidewalks. Dangerous and unsightly. Looks abandoned. Trash visible in lawn.
There is a tree that is found to be dead. Had an arborist check it out. Owner states city put tree in.
Bushes are 10 ft high causing safety issues for neighbors. Resident has been informed but has not trimmed.
There are some weeds growing up here that make it particularly difficult for drivers that are eastbound on E Smith Ave to check for northbound traffic on S Lincoln St before turning left onto Lincoln St. In the summer, this is a particularly busy area during pick-up and drop-off for the Lincoln Street Boys & Girls Club summer camps. It would also be ideal to take a look at the curb markings here to see if street parking can be adjusted to improve visibility at this intersection. Thank you!
At the T-intersection of North Dunn and Old 37.. the visibility turning left there is nearly impossible.. today we could not see traffic coming from the right to make the left turn towards the stop light at Walnut. The grass and brush are so tall it blocks all visibility. We ended up turning right off Dunn as we just couldn’t see traffic. There is a curve there looking right and cars are hidden from sight. Can this area please be mowed and brush mowed for safety Thanks
Downed tree partially fell on road
The street lamps that are posted coming out of the sidewalks have been knocked out and not working for some time, but the building blocks any kind of light coming from busier streets and the light coming from 3rd Street and Allison jukebox is not enough that you can see walking down the sidewalk. As an employee of middleway house, my supervisor has given me permission to report to you that clients have experience not feeling safe and needing flashlights to navigate the sidewalk at night. The worst area is on the southwest side of the sidewalk between the gates of the new wings building down to Smith Avenue. It is also dark across the street from another building owned by middleway house, the rise at 401 South Washington. It is very dark on the west side of the street and our clients and are coming home with their children taking the bus when the bus station often is closed. Please work with whoever the property management is of that apartment building because I'm sure they need to install proper lighting for their own tenant's safety, especially on the doorways and entry points that make people feel unsafe walking by. I believe the city needs to install more lighting as well. This area has been begging increasingly unsafe, although close to 3rd St Police. Thank you for giving this the attention it deserves.
At the intersection of 8th and Hillsdale there is excessice over growth so that you can't see the stop sign and it hangs so branches touch the roof of vehicle causing scratches. Additionally, you have to merge into Hillsdale to see oncoming traffic.
Light Trespass Continuing problem Unshielded bright exterior lights trespassing neighboring properties
Light Trespass. Ongoing problem. The city has investigated before and confirmed light trespass. The large carriage lights on the east of the house porch are nonconforming with city code, they are unshielded, and are left on all night, as well, and there is light trespass on the neighboring property.This has been verified by a site visit by the city, measured on the neighboring property. Please enforce this. The light trespass is a continuing problem and it is disruptive to neighbors, as well as being a circadian rhythm disruptor. Apparently the house is unoccupied currently, and in a misguided effort to make the house look occupied, the exterior lights are left on all night. Thank you for enforcing the city code, and stopping this violation and nuisance immediately.
