Blocked Street

Case Date:
7/18/2015

Alley is significantly eroded, making passage impossible. Vehicles cannot pass because one side is at least 6 inches lower than the other. For me, this means I cannot use my garage because the access is on the alley (715 West 13thStreet). The impassable part of the alley is north of 12th Street running parallel toFairview and Maple, which it lies between.

George Saliday told me I had to move from 'his' city owned sidewalk as me standing and speaking with one other person on said sidewalk was 'causing a hazard'. I would like an explanation as to the city law or rule prohibiting persons from conversing in a stationary manner while on a city sidewalk. I would also like to understand why a non law enforcement public employee is enforcing directives of the public and why he was wearing no identification. Thank you.

In front of the Kroger on W 3rd st, where the traffic light leads into the parking lot area, there is a missing stop sign on the road that leads from the strip mall with the Subway to the other area where Kroger and Big Lots are located. This could cause an accident and needs to be fixed.

Parks & Playgrounds

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

Trails

2539 E Eastgate LN

Case Date:
7/15/2015

The Polly Grimshaw Trail is in dire need of bush and tree trimming. The east bound "lane" is overgrown and in many places only two or three feet of the west bound "lane" is usable so that two bicycles would not be able to pass at the same time without one of them leaving the trail. A particular hazard is just east of the Pete Ellis crossing where a recently broken branch of a locust tree (the kind with thorns) is covering most of the trail. A thorn could easily puncture a bicycle tire. I realize that Parks and Recreation has always denied having jurisdiction over this trail. But this was the only link I found to report this. Please pass this request on to which ever department would be able to handle it. Thanks so much!

Large "For Rent" banners are draped in front of 401 E. Cottage Grove and 308 E. Cottage Grove. Both properties are managed by "Jamar Properties" and owned by the same individual. I phoned them to ask they be taken down but the woman did not seem to understand what I was talking about.
