Bus stop on N Illinois St across from Illinois Court in Crestmont badly needs no parking signs and painted curbs that indicate the length of the bus. People in wheelchairs cannot access the lift, and people are having to walk out into the road to catch the bus. It's on a hill and the parked vehicles effect visibility of oncoming bus, and you can't see any cars coming that might be in front of the bus. Oncoming traffic has to come to a complete stop, now, because the bus has trouble squeezing through. Sometimes, the bus has to just sit and wait. There's a concrete slab that connects the sidewalk with the road the bus driver can no longer lower the wheelchair lift onto because of the cars. The units there were empty, but now they are being rented, and the no parking sign that used to be there is gone. We need a painted curb the length of a bus, and clear markings. We also need parking enforcement to actually do their job when we call, but there's no sign there telling people not to park. The people who park there are mean and told me I should walk to work (and called me fat and lazy,) instead of taking public transportation when I have surgery coming up. I can’t even have a reasonable conversation with them, so I'm turning to you. Thank you.

Response to 189024 -- If the fires are happening daily at the homeless camp along the Rail Trail, and the fire department (MFPD) has been out twice this month, yet the fires continue, why would there not be an option to take some level of preventative enforcement action as opposed to reactive only that is not solving the underlying issue? This would be a daily call to 911 if people in the area called every time there was a large, illegal fire. Is that the best use of resources, as opposed to the City cleaning the area up, removing those illegally burning on City property, and preventing any future fires from being started by those illegally camping on the property? The City refuses to address the problem, the county has to roll a truck out here due to the City's inaction, and the adjacent property owners suffer. All to protect illegal activity!

Live fires nightly with noxious fumes and firefighters cannot access behind my home in event of an emergency. Please come see the situation fir yourself. It's dangerous. We are unsafe due to people squatting on public property yet allowed to break the law with open fires, territorial dogs, shouting and cursing all day, using the forest for a toilet.... Please come see. Help us property owners especially with 4th of July coming up. In case of fire or emergency, services have no access. That is simply unacceptable. Please help.
Sewer Problems (Sanitary Sewers)

We have had water backup every time it rains this spring. This has not been an issue in past years. We have had our main line cleared multiple times and scoped to ensure there are no issues with the line, but continue to get water coming through our flood drain in the basement every time it rains. Please can you sent someone to inspect the main city line on the 8600 block of Clinton Ave S to clear any blockage on your line? We are frustrated with the water backup.
