See case #186242. Not as much sewage right now due to tenants being on break this week, but the problem has not been corrected. Once it gets cold and the tenants return, the constant flow of sewage on the sidewalk will create an ice hazard in addition to the already present infection/contamination hazard. Please force property owner to correct the problem ASAP, and at least before winter. If the Planning is allowing him to build more (unneeded) rentals in the neighborhood (e.g., E. Cottage Grove), he should be required to perform at least some upkeep of the ones he is already responsible for.

Top course of stone on retaining wall being forced off by progressive yard expansion. One section has already fallen, blocking sidewalk and creating a hazard for pedestrians in the dark.

A few of the capstones on the retaining wall out front are precariously hanging close to the edge as a result of long-term, hydrological processes. They look like they are about to fall, especially if someone happens to sit on the wall at that place. Owner of this property is the same as 322 E. 12th, the one with the dangerous sidewalk. He is an out-of-state, absentee landlord who doesn't care about the neighborhood or safety in general. If he is going to be required to fix the sidewalk on 12th, please also require him to attend to this retaining wall. One of the capstones has already fallen and broken. Someone just picked it up off the sidewalk and placed it back on top of the wall without mortar.

I notice road and sidewalk tabs, but nothing for bicycle paths and lanes. When will a tab to note closures and blockages (or complete removal of things like bike boxes) of any bicycle infrastructure be added to the app? Even short blockages/lane closures are very relevant for bicycle commuters trying to get to work safely and on time.

I've tried submitting a sidewalk complaint multiple times, but this site never seems to progress past "processing your service request" nor appears to complete step 4.

I live at 2114 E. Rock Creek Drive, During Fiber installation between the street and sidewalk, the machinary that was used lifted my concrete pad making an uneven unsafe surface. This has not been repaired by the installers of the Fiber. Thanks for your attention to this matter and your response.

When trying to report a block sidewalk at 620 S. Park Ave., the app gets as far as step four (processing) and never finishes submitting the report

Hello, I am wondering if there are plans to finish the bikepath from Henderson along Winslow all the way up to Highland and the Winslow Sports complex. I live in Sherwood Oaks, and this would make biking to work on campus and biking downtown much safer for me. It would be great if someone from the city could reach out to Sherwood Oaks Neighborhood and let us know up sidewalk and bikepath plans along winslow, henderson and rhorer. I would also like to see a sidewalk all the way from Henderson to Jackson Creek Middle along Rhorer.
