When going north on S. Dunn street when you get to the intersection at Grimes you can not see around the cars parked on the south east and south west corners. You have to inch out into the intersection putting the front of the car in the middle of the road before you can see anything. The same thing happens when biking. We live on S Dunn and deal with this issue daily. The street parking on Grimes at the intersection when cars are parked make it impossible to see traffic both directions.

The sidewalk on the east side of High Street (there isn't one on the west side at this point) is being overtaken by overgrowth, pushing pedestrians into a fairly high speed section of High Street. This is just north of the round about at Winslow/Rogers.

If I stay on the sidewalk because I am pushing a stroller I get smacked in the face by overgrown foliage, much of which appears to be invasive and about to seed

913 W. 11th St. NOT 1001. I can't get the GIS to point to 913. Photo taken 6/20 This still has not been cut back despite Jo Stong saying that it would. Still can't see safely to turn from Orris to 11th St. The wheelchair ramp is also obstructed. You seem to have an issue getting Michael to respect the city.

Near corner of Woodlawn/Atwater: alley that exits onto Woodlawn between Subway/apartment bldg. and rental house is dangerous. Shrubs on corner of Subway/apartment bldg. completely block the line of sight for drivers pulling out of this alley onto Woodlawn. Nothing can be seen that is approaching from the north and heading south. Have to pull car partially into the roadway to see if anything is coming. This is a heavily used alley due to an IU parking lot, IU office building and student housing rentals whose parking can only be accessed through the alley. And the area, itself, is active. This is even more dangerous to pedestrians/bikes/scooters. We cannot see them approaching and THEY CANNOT SEE US, either. It was bound to happen sooner or later and could have ended in injury or death. Yesterday I almost hit a jogger who was heading south on the sidewalk as I was trying to pull out onto Woodlawn. I couldn’t see him approaching due to the shrubs. He also could not see me! The shrubs completely blocked his line of sight and he couldn’t see that a car was approaching. The city has known about this for at least two years and hasn’t done anything to address it. My colleagues and I have tried repeatedly to have this fixed. Three cases were found in my search, but I know that there are more because this has been ongoing for longer than two years. Case #161202, 9/18/17, second half of complaint reported this. The case was closed with no mention of it having been addressed. Case #164914, 6/21/18, and case #167848, 3/21/19, are both still open. With neither showing any update that this is being addressed. Why? How can this be left unattended for so long? A whole year for case #164914! At some point there is going to be a tragedy here and it’ll be on the city for not having addressed this after multiple hazard reports.
