Recycling bin on sidewalk
sidewalk blocked by overgrown bushes and trees
This morning at approximately 8:05AM on October 18, 2018 a guy driving a delivery truck bed full of materials decides to stop at 10th and Rogers with no indication and causes a full stop for myself and a city block full of cars stuck. Rogers is a one way street at this point and because of the height of the truck, we cannot see if traffic is coming down the other way to pass around the truck. After sitting in my car for over 5 minutes and watching the truck driver run out to the construction site with no indication of when he's coming back, I rolled down my window to ask a nearby construction driver if someone can come direct traffic. I realize that's not his job but he didn't even dignify my question with a response. This is frustrating because despite all the delayed construction projects at the city, county and state level, the City has usually been pretty good about these types of things. If this is going to happen again, someone needs to be directing one way traffic flow. Also, I thought this 10th street corridor between Rogers and Morton was also supposed to be open by October 15th but now I see the information is gone from the city website.

This rental property (Orion property) has had multiple bags of trash sitting by the road for two weeks. The grass is overgrown. I asked the property managers (Orion properties) to clean up the garbage and the person showing the house said they think the city will pick it up and he wasn't worried about it. I don't know why the city allows bags of garbage to remain by the road for two weeks, skipped over by garbage collection for two weeks and nothing is done about it.
As of 5/8/17 one full garbage can remains uncollected from this Orion properties rental. This uncovered can has been on the street for at least 3 weeks and the collection crews continue to pass it by. Last week the garbage bags that were laying by the street were collected, but the full can was left. No action taken by the city for 3+ weeks. From the city website: "Do not place containers out more than 24 hours in advance and remove them from the curb on the same day as pick up. A violation may result in a fine up to $50. Each day a violation continues is a separate violation." This means Orion properties should be fined in excess of $1050.00.
Since this building is no longer a garage, it seems that a full curb should be installed to prevent people from pulling up on the sidewalk. There are constantly cars parked on the sidewalk here (several feet in past the yellow painted curb (which is flattened because it used to be a garage). I asked the tenants to stop, and then today a dumpster showed up on the sidewalk. This is the North side of the "FAR" gallery building at fourth and rogers. Obviously this is frustrating to me but it's probably pretty annoying for the kid in a wheelchair who i see going back and forth to school and having to cross the street to get around.
