Street Trees

- Case Date:

A pine tree at the house on the northwest corner of the intersection at E Maxwell Lane and Woodlawn (likely 1005) is blocking the view of the stop sign as you approach from the east on Maxwell Lane. Drivers can't see the sign until only a
a car-length or 2 away.

I live at 918 w 2nd street and I can’t see to get out of my driveway safety due to the weeds blocking my view. I’ve almost been hot several time and several family members. Thank you for getting the weeds taken care of at the first house but unfortunately the next house is also blocking my view.

Line of sight blocked due to tall weeds. I was almost hit by a car I could not see behind the weeds last week. One house was cleared but this one remains! Been an ongoing problem for 3 years!

As you may know, the cable installers are back at work in the Winslow Farms neighborhood (after leaving it uncompleted for well over a year), and they are inflicting significant damage on properties. We came home to find piles of dirt and rock, a new ground box not flush with the ground, and significant damage far up into our lawn from their boring machine--way beyond the utility easement. Further, their work is damaging sidewalks-both cracking the concrete and pushing it up to create tripping hazards. They were rude to our neighbor who confronted them about these issues. Further, they indicated that they were going to trench back between the houses on Azalea, across the conservancy area, to Bayberry. I would like to talk with someone from the city about this excessive damage, how far back onto our property they are allowed to bring their construction equipment before it becomes trespassing, what is an acceptable expectation/timeline for repairs to our lawn, and what sort of plans they may have for trenching back between our houses and across a conservancy area. They posted announcements of their work AFTER they began and a neighbor complained. Please contact me when you can to discuss the ongoing damage this company is doing to our properties and neighborhood.

The sidewalk from here all the way to the pedestrian crossing at Olcott sucks. It's an awful garbage sidewalk. There's been several reports about it being unsafe, and it's constantly blocked by vegetation. It's narrow and precipitous in places. Anything wider than a sedan risks clipping pedestrians.

Ever since the city installed curb bump-outs for on-street parking some years ago, drivers have been blowing out tires and ruining wheel hubs at the southeast corner of Maxwell Lane and South Fess, usually as they are driving south on Fess and turning east onto Maxwell. I know this issue has come up before, and various solutions have been tried, but something more substantive needs to happen -- either reduce the projection of the curb or get rid of the bump-out altogether. I would estimate 15-20 drivers a year hit this curb. Yesterday, it happened twice. One driver was lucky and just blew out a tire. The second had to call a tow truck, which we see over and over again. Each driver thinks he/she is the only one to do this, so they don't think to tell the city. Please do something to fix this problem. It's costing people time and money on a regular basis. Thanks!

This is a bustling intersection and should have a stop sign. I've seen near misses multiple times, and it's in an area where children are walking and riding their bikes.
Thanks for listening and your consideration.

Intersection of Patterson and Allen. If heading north on Patterson, there is a hump as you cross Allen street at the light. When doing 30mph(the speed limit) it's enough to upset steering and cause traction control to come on.

As of this afternoon, I have orange and red flags marching across my front lawn, far from the utility easement. I don't think there are electrical or TV cable wires there at present. Is ATT about to put them there?
