There are two large bushes that block visibility of an elementary bus stop. The stop is used primarily by small children, which are completely unseen to cars that will be turning on to the road. There’s also a fire hydrant ensconced by them, making it difficult to see.
The northwest corner of Nancy Street and Hillside Drive is overgrown in the city's right of way. It is currently unsafe for any cars heading/and turning south on Nancy Street onto Hillside Drive. Please trim the trees and bushes for a safer intersection for pedestrians, drivers, and passengers. Thank you.
At the intersection of Circle Dr and Ruby lane, 8 large plots of very tall decorative grass, along the Ruby Lane side of the property at 1717 Circle Dr, block the view of oncoming traffic from the east. These need to be removed.
The trees to the left (north) of the entrance/exit from the Animal Shelter and Recycle center on S. Walnut make it very tough to see traffic coming from the north headed south on Walnut. The speed limit there is 40mph, so cars are going 45-50mph along that stretch of road. The trees with leaves on them just about totally obscure the view of traffic coming from the north when you are trying to exit from the area. Can someone go check out the line of sight from this exit and see if the trees could be trimmed back in some way?
The southwest corner of Lexington and Longview has a series of small trees and honeysuckle vines that obstruct the view of traffic. I was headed north on Lexington, stopped at the corner, and attempted to turn left onto Longview. I almost hit a car that was traveling east on Longview because of those trees and vines. This is an annual issue when the foliage grows.
Hedges are preventing people from standing safely at the bus stop. Additionally, they are impeding line of sight and causing vehicles to pull into Graham to see east traveling traffic. Wall, is collapsing into the easement and preventing people from street parking.
4311 e Walpole lane. Tree growth blocks sidewalk
I called 3 weeks ago to inquire about large tree on easement. 2-3 years ago all easement trees on our blocked were removed and replanted with a new tree. They got to us and stopped. We keep trimming it and it's impossible to keep the limbs off cars parked on street. Roots tearing up the ground. When I called 3 weeks ago, told someone would call me back. Have not heard from anyone. Please advise.
This historic home was sold in April, the new owners have not moved in and the property is not being mowed. Also, the invasive honeysuckle on the wooded part of the property is growing into the street blocking the vision on N. Fritz Drive as it also obscures the no outlet sign and street light.
