I'm reporting this on behalf of a gentleman on the EH listserv, who reports a bulb out in one of the "charming old streetlamps" on Hawthorne at 2nd. Not quite sure which one it is, and you may get other reports on this as he sent it out to the entire listserv.
The culvert at the south end of the parking lot on Woodlawn across from The Bryan Park pool has been eroding for quite a while and looks like it could collapse.
We have a broken patio umbrella. Can you pick that up with the trash next Monday? July 8th?
This morning (11/23/2020), I found a tire on the road in front of my property. I guess that someone hit the dry stone wall of my garden in the night because it is damaged or dropped off the tire. I am wondering whether you can remove it because it could be an obstacle for cars.
During last nights storm, part of a large walnut tree cracked and fell, partly the street. Neighbors used a chain saw to clear their driveway for access, but debris is still on the road and blocking storm drainage/run off areas. Also, two dead trees nearby are at an angle and look like they may fall in the next storm. Street light and fire hydrant are located in the small area as well.
The Davis St. right of way, just south of my property is forested. I know that the city doesn't normally tend to the trees in this strip, but it's public property. I write because of two particular dead trees in this area--one a hazard to utility wires, the other temporarily leaning against a live tree but will eventually fall on our fence.May I show you these dead trees and ask if the city would be willing to remove them before they damage our property and the public utility lines?
Ballantine Rd. pavement has crumbled away at the base of our driveway, leaving a level difference of a couple inches between the street and the driveway pavement. Can you have a crew pour enough asphalt onto this small patch so that it is flush with our driveway? Newspaper delivery guy won't pull into our driveway because of the damage it does his car. We don't have quite the same choice...
Orange tap water.
I don't know if this is a problem or not. The water meter pit/hole in my backyard always has a puddle on top of it. I haven't tried to open the lid to see if the hole is full of water. I don't see it flowing under the fence into the parking lot. Do you have an explanation or will you investigate? Thanks Rich
I am retired and live across Woodlawn Avenue from the Bryan Park Pool. In the morning I usually sit on my deck to drink coffee and read the paper. The person who mows and string trims in the park often (five days/week?) starts mowing shortly after 8 am. It's loud and annoying, and the last straw was when it happened this morning - SATURDAY! He mowed the grass strip between Woodlawn and the parking lot, then the strip across Woodlawn along that parking lot, then the grass strip directly outside my yard! My cat jumped up and ran inside, and this was at 8:30. I'm sure many of my neighbors would agree that this is unnecessary; how can mowing be so urgent that it has to be done at 8:00 on Saturday morning? I will add that the gentleman does a great job; the park is mowed and trimmed and free of trash. But please make a change so that the loud machinery is operated later in the day. Thank you.
