There is a hollow maple tree on city property at the corner of East 11th Street and Walnut Street. There is currently an active bee hive in it. Given how close the tree is to houses in the area, the fact that the tree is hollow is cause for concern. If the tree and the bee hive could be assessed, that would be appreciated. Thank you!

Last year, the section of the sidewalk at Washington and Cottage Grove was replaced, but the workers left a trench in the road that collects water and breeds mosquitos. I couldn't help but notice when similar work was done this summer on 10th street and a layer of pavement was laid alongside the sidewalk to fill the trench there. Probably just an oversight but it'd be nice to get this job completed.

Large pile of lumber (4x4 posts) has been sitting by the street (11th) for at least a year. Also, large vehicles are being parked there even though it is city property and clearly marked "No Parking" on the north side of the road.

Water pools on NE corner of 11th/Lincoln intersection (formerly a sidewalk) and freezes. This is dangerous. Water pools at same location in summer and causes swampy conditions.
Yard plantings have taken over sidewalk near the intersection of Lincoln and 11th. It is now impassible.
