Orange tap water.
Orange tap water.
I don't know if this is a problem or not. The water meter pit/hole in my backyard always has a puddle on top of it. I haven't tried to open the lid to see if the hole is full of water. I don't see it flowing under the fence into the parking lot. Do you have an explanation or will you investigate? Thanks Rich
I am retired and live across Woodlawn Avenue from the Bryan Park Pool. In the morning I usually sit on my deck to drink coffee and read the paper. The person who mows and string trims in the park often (five days/week?) starts mowing shortly after 8 am. It's loud and annoying, and the last straw was when it happened this morning - SATURDAY! He mowed the grass strip between Woodlawn and the parking lot, then the strip across Woodlawn along that parking lot, then the grass strip directly outside my yard! My cat jumped up and ran inside, and this was at 8:30. I'm sure many of my neighbors would agree that this is unnecessary; how can mowing be so urgent that it has to be done at 8:00 on Saturday morning? I will add that the gentleman does a great job; the park is mowed and trimmed and free of trash. But please make a change so that the loud machinery is operated later in the day. Thank you.
There is a strip of grass outside our back yard fence along the parking lot across from the Bryan Park poo. For the last three years + the city has mowed it. This year so far they have mowed a strip along the parking lot but have left a strip along our fence (see photo). The gentleman who mows rides his mower through the parking lot several times a week, could he please mow that strip or would you please tell me why not? He does a great job keeping the area mowed and trimmed. Thanks, Rich Pierce
Fallen tree branch across Hawthorne Dr. Branches have been cut and pushed to side of street (in front of 1025 and 1019), but need to be cleared off.

A small tree in the median along the creek has fallen over. This is on Southdowns just west of Hawthorne.
There are a lot of big tree limbs and sticks piled up in the creek area between Sheridan and Southdowns just west of Hawthorne. The large limb in the attached photo is leaning against the tree and could fall.
On Sunday evening I caught some photos of a loose dog on Southdowns between Manor and Hawthorne. The dog is frequently out on its own and tends to stay within that block roughly. It lives in a red house on Southdowns. My main concern is that this Sunday I was on a walk and observed the dog almost get hit by two vehicles in the road, I had to re-route my walk with my dog because this dog was at-large with an unknown temperament, and the dog also went to the bathroom in the grass by the creek without being cleaned up by the owners (due to being oblivious to where their dog was at the time). Is there anything that can be done to try to keep the dog safe and other drivers and pedestrians safe too? Thanks.
Do private contractors have an obligation to clean up the street? This house on Southdowns (between Manor and Hawthorne) was paved and the street is a mess. It is not just stained, there is a lot of loose debris on the road from the paving process that could be cleaned up. Can the City contact the homeowner to find out who needs to get back out here to clean the street up and make their job site presentable? Thanks.
