Tipped porta potty blocking use of sidewalk for wheelchairs
Overgrowth blocking sidewalk at 1011 W. 11th St.
On Fees Lane between 10th and 9th street on the west side, the sidewalk has a wooden repair. The concert stops and this is a section of the sidewalk that is made out of wood. It is not a wide as the sidewalk. This morning (2/7), in the rain, I stepped onto that piece of wooden bridge and slipped. I did not fall, but I came really close and now I'm feeling it in my back and legs. Clearly someone knew there was an issue, but, the time to fix the sidewalk correctly was not done. If I develop any issues because of your departments failure to maintain the sidewalk, or your failure to enforce sidewalk repairs, I will be sending the City a bill.
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) 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.
I live at 105 weldon st and we need snow removal. Mulitiple cars are getting stuck.
