Potholes, Other Street Repair
1303 W 11th ST
- Case Date:
- 1/8/2020
At least a 1 foot deep pothole, about 3 feet long, not very wide located on the far right side of 11th St. Heading east. Just before the church on the corner of 11th and Adams St. This pothole was large enough to pop my tire. Please consider fixing this soon since it is along the detour of 17th St. to and from the west side and this road experiences heavier traffic. Thank you!
Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)

1305 West 11th Street.
This is not the first time I have reported this property. This property is absolutely stacked with with junk, construction debris, rubbish, and who knows what else. It is immoral and an obscenity for these people to disrespect their neighbors in this way. Speaking for myself, it detracts from the enjoyment and value of my own property right nearby. This property is zoned single family residence. I want it cleaned up. Since no code was enforced previously, allow me to remind you:
6.06.010 - Definitions.
"Rubbish" means nonputrescible solid wastes consisting of both combustible and noncombustible wastes, such as paper, cardboard, tin cans, wood, glass, bedding, crockery, construction debris, and similar materials.
6.06.020 - Deposit of garbage.
It is unlawful for any person to throw, place, or scatter any garbage, recyclable materials or yard waste over or upon any premises, street, alley, either public or private, or to suffer or permit any garbage, recyclable materials or yard waste to be placed or deposited on the premises owned, occupied or controlled by such person either with or without the intent to later remove, cover, or burn it. This provision shall not restrict the filling of low lands within the city with brick, stone, sand, gravel, cold ashes, or dirt after the appropriate permit has been obtained from the city engineering department.
6.06.110 - Violations.
Violations of the provisions of this chapter are declared a PUBLIC NUISANCE. Each day that a violation continues shall constitute a separate violation.
Everything stacked in the front and side yard of that property clearly fits into that definition and those violations. People are NOT allowed to stack up a bunch of old lumber, doors, windows, and other junk in their yards in the middle of the city! Period! Now, I EXPECT you to enforce these ordinances EQUALLY across the entire city. I remind you that lawsuits can be filed against "nuisance properties." In addition, I wish to point out that in other cities in similar situations, a writ of mandamus has been used to compel the city to enforce its ordinances.
All I am asking for is some respect for the homeowners around that property.

I apologize..I'm not sure I picked the right category. I would like to request a crosswalk at 11th and Walnut..across walnut. The bus stops there and let's large groups of students off that then cross, going west. After dark, I'm worried someone will get hit especially.
Thanks in advance.

Large tree in Bryan Park north of Sheridan Creek, undermined at the base and looking unstable. Perhaps a tree expert should take a look and assess it.
