Landscape plot should either be brought up to sidewalk grade or have a tree grate. This is a pedestrian hazard.
Retaining wall on NE corner of property alongside Washington Street is starting to collapse. Some of the stone has fallen onto the sidewalk. Still passable, but probably should be addressed. Might be hazardous at night.
Scooter tipped over, entirely blocking sidewalk
Gravel built up on the sidewalk making it inaccessible for wheelchair users.
See case #185515. Issue continues - sidewalk is periodically wet again near SE corner of lot, likely untreated sewage.
A large brown recycling dumpster blocking sidewalk access. N College Avenue - N Morton Street brick alleyway, southern side of Uptown Plaza building
Large sign structure with sandbags standing in front yard ever since summer sidewalk construction project. Please remove.
Recycling dumpster blocking sidewalk south side of building (Uptown Plaza)
Recurring problem. See #184772, #177627, #184699, #184577, etc. Actual address not clear, as it is on the property line of two lots. Plants are overgrown into the sidewalk along the south side of Cottage Grove just east of Grant Street. Pedestrians need to use that side of the street to avoid the fraternity in the apartment building on the north side of the street.
See case #186242. Not as much sewage right now due to tenants being on break this week, but the problem has not been corrected. Once it gets cold and the tenants return, the constant flow of sewage on the sidewalk will create an ice hazard in addition to the already present infection/contamination hazard. Please force property owner to correct the problem ASAP, and at least before winter. If the Planning is allowing him to build more (unneeded) rentals in the neighborhood (e.g., E. Cottage Grove), he should be required to perform at least some upkeep of the ones he is already responsible for.
