Blocked Sidewalk

2706 E Redwood CIR

Case Date:
6/27/2019

After the storm went through on Sunday 6/23, we noticed runners and walkers were having trouble getting through on the sidewalk behind our house along Rogers Rd. Upon investigation, we found that a tree/bush next to the road had broken in the storm and was blocking the sidewalk. We cleared the debris from the sidewalk and moved it into the grassy area in between the sidewalk and the road. I would like to see the debris removed and that bush/tree trimmed. Please warn whomever works there that there may be poison ivy (I seem to have gotten it, likely from that.)

The same tree root issue is happening on the opposite side of our driveway as well. The roots from the tree are causing the sidewalk to raise becoming a trip and fall hazard. Additionally, the branches hang over the street directly above any vehicle that would park there in front of our house. Would like the tree removed if possible and a new smaller one planted if a tree is required. 2630 South Isabel Court. Thank you.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

2427 E 2nd ST

Case Date:

There is a big piece of steel rebar sticking out of the sidewalk near the eastern entrance to 2427 E 2nd Street. It's become a safety issue for cars and pedestrian as many kids walk through there to get to the elementary school. Unsure if since it's an IU office if it's IU property? Thank you for investigating and potentially resolving.

This huge tree branch has been blocking the sidewalk since a storm in mid October. It was reported not long after the storm, but the branch is STILL blocking the sidewalk causing pedestrians to walk in the street.

1479 W Adams Hill CIR

Case Date:

There is an invasive vine, possibly grapevine, that is pushing over plants bordering a city sidewalk and at time obstructing the walk. I have cut it back several times; most recently a few weeks ago. Would the city or someone else be able to get rid of the vine and/or cut the greenery farther away from the sidewalk. The sidewalk borders a marsh and is right across from the pond on Tapp, on Adams Hill Circle.

The Highland St. side of 1216 E. 2nd St has trees and vines 4 feet into the roadway. With no sidewalk, pedestrian must move far out into the street. Cars cannot park. Parking sign is obscured. Street sweepers swing around the area, creating ever more debris in the gutter.

Street Snow Removal

1216 E Skylark CT

Case Date:
1/20/2019

Hi--we love the work the city road crews do to plow snow and sand for safe travel. We do have one request for our cul-de-sac, though (Skylark Court, east off of Highland Avenue). We'd appreciate it if the plow drivers could return and plow the large pile of snow covering the lone storm water drain off to the side, so as to uncover the drain. Also, in the future, can they please avoid piling snow that storm water drain. It is the drain for the entire cul-de-sac. In the photo, this location is shown approximately by the red arrow. When snow is piled over this drain, as snow melts from anywhere uphill, or if it rains, the snow pile caps off the drain and the bottom of the cul-de-sac floods. The storm water drain is at the bottom of the cul-de-sac, which is all one slope, so A LOT of water runs to that one drain. One concern we have with the flooding is that several utility hook-ups (electricity, telephone, and cable) are just a foot or two away from the drain. Things have been done this way for years, and we have always taken it upon ourselves to shovel the drain clear, but this year we realized it would be a great idea to ask if the plow drivers could do this instead. Thank you!
