At llam this morning, as I crossed Atwater at Fess, I noticed that all of the street lights both east and west of Fess on Atwater were on. The weather had been sunny all day, so if there are light detectors on the street lights, they are not working. If they are timed, then the timers are not working.
The old street lights are in need of maintainance. One is taken down after it was hit by a car several years ago. They all need to be painted. Some look rusty. What is the plan for the beautiful old street lights? Between Atwater Ave and E 2nd St.
The street light in front of 4300 E. Jamet Drive seems to have issues with the sensor (maybe the wiring). It goes on and off every few secs.
I have reported this before, and the bulb was replaced. However, the light still is OFF more than it is on, and this makes me feel very unsafe. Can this be adjusted to NOT go off at all? It is very dark in this area when this light is not on. Thank you!
There has been a car alarm going off for 2 days. The car is located in the back of Timber Ridge Apartments. Unhoused Crawford residents have been breaking into cars, stealing and setting off alarms in the complex
Person has been living on the curb for roughly 10 days with several carts of belongings and a dog that jumps out barking at people as they walk by on the sidewalk. While the person generally stays on the part of the curb that is not the sidewalk, this can't be permitted to take place in a safe and civil city.
There is a homeless camp that has formed on the sidewalk and curb. The area is a safety hazard with the open air drug market of Seminary Park across the street and now there's a mushrooming number of folks under the influence of drugs that are camped out around the clock on the sidewalk/curb.
There is a tent setup on the curb doing some sort of commerce and the customers and staff are taking over the sidewalk, blocking pedestrian paths.
An increasing number of individuals are sleeping on the sidewalk every night along with their belongings. They are shielded from view & passing cars by presence of the tree planter. These people inevitably need to use the bathroom throughout the course of the night and do so on the surrounding properties leaving fecal messes all around - both an unsanitary hazard and burden on those who have to clean it up. In the mornings when they leave the area there is always a sizeable mess of garbage, clothing, personal belongings, needles... left behind on the sidewalk, tree planter ledge and surrounding areas.
Nightly encampment of folks on sidewalk/public ROW after closing of parks. Needles/syringes, feces, trash, chairs/furniture etc. are all over the area - on public & private property as a result of the nighttime inhabitants. Due to late night activity, this may need to be addressed by police.
