I tried to describe this issue over the phone but the street dept. employee only wanted to blame my driveway for destroying the city street. What?? The problem is the street gutters. When the 800 block of Briarcliff was repaved about 6 years ago, it was ground down and the asphalt was carried into the gutter and made for a smooth transition to the remaining gutter concrete. The 900 block of Briarcliff was not ground down and repaved at that time. We are still waiting for the rest of Briarcliff to be repaved properly. In the 900 block the street's asphalt is approx. 3 inches higher than the concrete gutter so when you include the yard side of the gutter we have one enormous gully. I know of one broken ankle because of this and two weeks ago the Amazon driver twisted his ankle stepping into the gully getting out of his truck. I had asked about putting concrete in the gully in front of my mailbox and was told by street employee NO, that would destroy the street. So what can be done to either pave the gutter in the 900 block like the 800 block or grind down the street pavement in the 900 block so it makes a smooth transition with the gutter. I know what I would do but the city owns the street. We on the 900 block pay the same city tax rate as the 800 block so I think we should have the same street setup. I did ask the street employee to bring out a two wheel drive vehicle and try to drive through the gutter. Not surprised no one showed up. Thanks
Trash cans left in the street well after garbage day pick up. This is a recurring problem at this address
Lawns need mowed.
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.
Yard needs mowed.
shrubs on corner are overgrown and block visibility at major intersection with lots of pedestrian traffic
Used syringe (with needle) in hellstrip just west of entrance to Rose Hill Farm Stop.
