Weeds around stop light control box and side walk.
Leaves illegally dumped in city property. Sheridan Woods. This happens every year and I don’t know who is doing it the nearest neighbors claim they use lawn services to haul away their leaves.
I submitted a complaint, case #206728 and Cheyenne Bowlen was assigned to it. I was told that the city does not do past 100 ft off of Kinser pike, and that it was the county’s responsibility and to reach out to them. I did. They said it is, in fact the city’s responsibility to do Acuff, and that they only have responsibility of Prow, just before it turns to Acuff. The county was confident and firm in their boundaries. So, either one of you is wrong, or there is an unfortunately placed gap in service, as it is a very sharp curve that happens to be the route many kids drive themselves to and from school. Please look into this with consideration to the kids.
The sign was damaged on Monday night, so perhaps it's been reported already. It's about 25 yards east of Spicewood Ln.
There’s no street sign for 11th St.
This hole STILL 4" deep. I reported it back on 8/11/25 work request # 204832. It's ridiculous it's taking so long to repair it properly. If it's not repaired before next Wed. I'm notifying the Mayor's office & City Council.
Travelling east on Covenanter, before crossing College Mall Rd., the light at the intersection of College Mall and Covenanter was not giving me a green light. I was the only car travelling eastbound at the time, as well as the only car in that part of the intersection (on the west side of College Mall Rd.). I went through 2 full Red-Green light cycles waiting to go through the intersection to continue on Covenanter towards Auto Mall Rd. Westbound traffic near the bank on the east side of College Mall Rd. was getting their green light ok. I ensured I was fully behind the stop line, even backing up after the Red-Green cycle for crossing traffic. I also do not believe I was too far to either the left or right in my lane. This happened sometime between 2:10 and 2:16 PM today (Nov. 12, 2025). I never got a green light; I simply made a right turn on red to finally get out of the intersection. This had happened to me before at that same place in the intersection, but I do not remember details. Bottom line: Whatever sensor checks for cars at that intersection in order to give a green light to eastbound traffic on Covenanter should be checked.
All of the painted lines that were crosswalks here have long since worn away and no one has come to repaint them. Some drivers still treat this area as if the lines are painted, but many do not. Crosswalks near stoplights and Hills often have people driving accelerate the most. Please repaint all four crosswalks, 2 on Washington, and 2 on 2nd st.

This morning, November 10, on my son’s way to school, he slid off the road and damaged his car. He was not going to fast, nor could he have done anything to prevent it as he hit a patch of ice on a curve. While a somewhat new driver comparatively, he has experience navigating slick conditions from growing up racing and riding 4 wheelers, dirt bikes, etc. The reason he slid off the road is because it was not salted, sanded or treated in any way. The road, Acuff, is a road traveled by many students to get to Bloomington North. As he sat and waited for his Father to help him, he witnessed numerous cars almost run into him, do 360’s, and hit curbs. Why this road wasn’t a priority being a route to the school is baffling. I hope roads that are connected to school parking lots will become a priority, especially as in this case when the weather was no surprise.
