Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
311 E Cottage Grove AVE
- Case Date:
- 10/28/2022
On the far east end of the brick sidewalk out front, nearly against the retaining wall of 311 E. Cottage Grove and alongside the alley is what remains of what was probably a former street sign pole. It was broken off at some point about 8 inches from the ground. The remaining stump of a steel pole is still there, and it is *VERY* sharp on the tip. It was painted yellow at some point - possibly an attempt to make this hazard visible, but that doesn't help at night. Someone could trip on it, or worse, someone could trip on something else and fall and be impaled on the spike at the top of it. Please remove it ASAP, but whoever removes it needs to understand how to lay bricks because after removal the bricks will need to be relaid and perhaps some will need replacement. Also, no need to replace the sign because there hasn't been one there in a long time and it was ridiculous in the first place to install a sign in a sidewalk where someone could walk right into it in the dark.

At the north end of the sidewalk out front, there is a street sign that blocks the sidewalk. Would it be possible to relocate the sign so that it is not in the way of pedestrians? It is dangerous in the dark.

Tenants have been parking in the alley on the west side of this property, blocking it. There are two parking spots there, but they are parking three cars in the location and that prevents access to and egress from the alley. The tenants might not realize that it is an alley and needs to be kept open.

The lack of 4 way stops on 7th near Dunn is a severe hazard, resulting in several accidents. This is an extreme hazard for cyclists. Can someone from the city pedestrian and bicycle commission contact me about it. I would like to add it to the agenda at the next meeting in November.

I forgot to put trash and recycling out in time Thursday. After I missed the trucks, I sent a form requesting Friday pick up. The trash was picked up but recycling was not. I can wait until Thursday but wanted you to know the recycling wasn’t picked up so I don’t get charged for it
Blocked Street

Camping trailer parked in the street blocking pedestrian access since there is no sidewalk.

Seminary park area is, as always, full of
Trash and abandoned personal possessions. Trash is being blown everywhere in the area including several retail areas. Some of the retail areas are abandoned or vacant. Regardless these retailers should not be accountable to pick all this trash up since the city cannot take care of the problem! There are also several homeless in the area with stolen shopping carts. Police need to intervene and return the stolen items to the owners. I continue to not understand why the city doesn’t take action or laws/rules in violation!!!!
