Northwest corner of 4th and Washington. The sidewalk is raised above a 1/2" (ADA says less) making it hard for a manual wheelchair to get over it. Must go around the block or out into the street. Can it be smoothed down or asphalt added to make it beveled?
1, upper left) Lincoln St., between 2nd and 3rd, entrance into police station parking lot, northwest corner, no ramp onto sidewalk, more than a two inch dropoff making it impossible to get a wheelchair onto it at all, even a power chair. Must go around the block or out into the street. Can it be smoothed down or asphalt added to make it beveled? 2, upper right) Just north of that northwest corner is sidewalk degradation that is hard to get around in a wheelchair. 3 lower left) Southwest corner, The sidewalk is raised above a 1/2" (ADA says less) making it hard for a manual wheelchair to get over it. Must go around the block or out into the street. Can it be smoothed down or asphalt added to make it beveled? 4 lower right) just north of the northwest corner is a sidewalk leading to the back entrance of the police station that has some sidewalk degradation that makes it difficult to get a wheelchair over this.
1 upper left) This accessible space is not. To use it, you must get out of your vehicle into the street and go down the street to the left to get onto the sidewalk (see 2, upper right) and back to the meter. 3 lower left) The meter is next to a raised portion of the sidewalk which a manual chair could not traverse either way, north or south. 4 lower right) The obvious solution to this is to swap the accessible space with the one just south of it that has a ramp built into the median between the street and sidewalk. A van parking there could get their life directly onto the ramp. The other issue, of course, would be to fix the raised sidewalk so the person could then go north from there, as opposed to going around the block.
Northeast corner on alleyway next to First United Methodist Church on Washington between Kirkwood and 4th Streets. This broken-up pavement makes coming off this sidewalk onto the alleyway fairly dangerous if you're in a wheelchair.

West side of 500 block of S. Washington. Sidewalk cracked, broken, and heaved up by tree growth. Does the city claim sidewalk repair is the responsibility of adjacent property owner? What about the goal of walkability?
The crosswalk sign that goes in the middle of the intersection of 4th & the B-Line was down on the ground off to the north of the road on the sidewalk. As of 3:45pm today.
Missing stop sign: The stop sign for Mitchell heading north at Maxwell is on the ground due to sidewalk construction. I just saw a car zoom through this intersection, heading north on Mitchell, without a pause. Since traffic does not stop on Maxwell, this would be dangerous if a car on Maxwell was also in the intersection.
