There is a downed power inside the north entrance to Cascades. Looks like a tree fell and took the line down. The tree has been removed but the line has been down on the ground for at least a week. I assume the electricity is off but it is not safe just to leave it down on the ground. If the power was accidentally turned back on people's lives could be endangered.
The sidepath along the bypass hasn't been cleared of snow.
Hi Park & Recs team! I wanted to file a complaint regarding trash from the softball teams that play at the Twin Lakes ball field. I live in the apartments behind those woods and often walk through that area. I think having the teams play there is great and I love watching them! However, after a night of playing the park is completely trashed with beer cars/boxes, wrappers and fast food bags. I love that they are having such a good time when they play but there are trash cans on the property that they are clearly not using and just basically making the area dirty for the rest of us. The picture attached is just a small amount I saw this morning, let alone the many other times throughout the summer that this has happened in and around the parking lot as well as the trails. Could we provide more trash cans for them? Or perhaps talk to the team captains about making an announcement. If that doesn't work and they can't clean up after themselves maybe sending a patrol officer to assist with cracking down on the tailgating. I would imagine it's illegal to drink alcohol in a public park but I'm not positive on the laws. Thanks so much for your help!
Can you please contact the homeowner at 135 North Clark Street and have them trim the shrubbery that overhangs into the bike lane on East Seventh Street? This street is a designated, signed bicycle route and a major bicycle commuter connector. As it is, bicycles need to get into the traffic lane (no sharrows) to avoid the overgrown bushes. Thank you for attending to this matter. --Jerry Arvesen
Corner of East 7th and N. Clark St. The 4 way stop was missing a stop sign as of the early evening (roughly 6:40PM) on Sunday, Jan. 15. Specifically, if you are eastbound on 7th street, the stop sign for you is the one that's missing. The other three were still there. My apologies, but I didn't think to take a photograph documenting this.
Overgrown weeds and shrubbery are encroaching on the roadway and bicycle path on south side of East Seventh Street between Roosevelt and Clark Street, forcing east-bound traffic into the middle of the road. With two-way traffic, this forced me too close for comfort near these shrubs. Thank you for looking into this.
The street light in front of 2308 E Linden Hill Dr is not lighting at night.
The neighbors put together some tree debris by the end of the street
The streetlight in front of my house (2102 S. Georgetown Rd.) was repaired last fall. Some work with the underground wiring was apparently required. The light was fixed, but the job seems never to have been quite finished: there's still a pile of dirt by the lightpost, surrounded by orange construction cones. It's been that way for at least three months now, I think. Can this be cleaned up?
