Multiple incidents of two toy size dogs (possibly Pomeranian and Shitzu) being off leash in an un-fenced area which allows them to run into Grimes (a very busy through steeet). Multiple incidents of dogs being left unattended and found up to a block away from the residence. Today, Sunday September 28, Pomeranian was approached while actively in the middle of the street away from the resident and subsequent home, dog began growling although it was slowly moving towards. Asked resident why dog was off leash and looked like a stray, she stated “they just get out sometimes” implying this is a recurring issue. Also to this fact, the dogs have been observed in an unsafe environment for multiple weeks

See case #201657. Two older men sit in the park nearly every day at around 11am smoking cigars right where people want to walk or sit. One of the men is extremely loud and yells vulgarities at people who ask him to stop smoking. Can someone in a position of authority please talk with them and ask them to not smoke anywhere in the park? They usually do it close to the bagel shop, where customers can smell them, but sometimes they sit closer to the bike shop, where everyone walks by on the sidewalk along Kirkwood. Please get them to stop.

this is often an issue in front of my office, with the road newly paved could you consider wheel stops to keep pedestrians right of way unblocked? thank you

Street signs missing at College/ 9th intersection.

Case Date:

5/12/2014

There are numerous close calls and way too many accidents at this intersection because cars on Grant aren't aware that cross-traffic on 9th doesn't stop. There was an accident this afternoon and luckily everyone was fine, but I believe it could have been avoided if the city put up a little "Cross Traffic Does Not Stop" sign below the stop signs on Grant. Thanks!

Trash bins being stored on street (9th Street side).

Case Date:

4/22/2025

Just a suggestion for the next time any work is planned for Grant Street: At the intersections with both 8th and 9th streets, there are some storm sewer grates alongside the road that are too accessible, in that their design is completely open, with only a single metal bar across the openings. This allows animals and large pieces of trash to flow into the storm sewers. All the other grates in the neighborhood are more enclosed and safer. Might be good to switch these old ones out with ones that are similar to all the others and safer. Even a very small child might be able to fit into a couple of them, because the cross-bar on some of them is bent so much.
