Case #179848 is marked closed and labeled as resolved though it never was. Problem is still a problem and has been since originally reported. People traveling east bound are forced to use wrong side of trail if they don't want muddy shoes, slip or fall as they walk or run. Also, people on bikes or using strollers traveling east bound use wrong side of trail because of risks due to poor maintenance. Then, those traveling west bound, walking running or riding have routinely been forced off trail towards Moores Pike (very narrow grassy seperation there) or have a head on collision with those using wrong side of trail. Please remove silt, mud, gravel, etc. Please dig out a channel so it can drain properly in the future. Thank you.
Hi, It seems there maybe miscommunication within the chain of command or not a 100% buy-in to "best practice" or a little of both. Report #181846 described a problem and its location. Unfortunately the problem has not been addressed in any way. However, it does look as though some one came through with a leaf blower and cleared the cypress leaves that had covered the trail further up towards Southeast park, next to tennis court entrance and wood post. I do very much appreciate that as the the pavement is very bumpy there in the corner and can cause loss of control of bike or scooter as well as trip walkers. I don't have construction experience but have used a shovel in the yard and that is probably all it would take. Just a shovel and one person to remove some soil blocking the current grade from working properly. If that isn't the solution how about adding a thin layer of pavement so runoff goes the other direction. I believe this was done on Renwick trail, there are patches of pavement here and there. Thanks for your help with this.
tree has fallen across renwick trail west of Sare Rd
The trail that runs around Winslow Park has a large rotted tree that is likely to fall onto the trail. It is roughly where the trail goes behind 2824 s Wexley rd
Spray paint graffiti on sign
Poison ivy is growing into the walking and bike lane all along Southdowns. This is a hazard to people walking, children, and pets who will transfer the oils to their owners.
Trails are overgrown, went there 2 weeks ago with the kids and then again yesterday. Thorns where nasty cutting legs, arms and faces. The parking lot area looked weed wacked, thanks. Winds blew trees over across trails too.
High winds during a thunderstorm on the evening of 7/5/23 caused large tree branches on the trail of RCA park to fall onto my fence. There is also a callery pear tree that almost exclusively hangs over the fence into my yard that I would like removed, if possible.
I wanted to have city mow the back of my yard. The fence is my boundary and they never mow the rest
