There are multiple low-hanging trees along S Park Ridge Road that make the sidewalk difficult to walk on. I believe these are city-maintained trees on the easement.

There are no marked crosswalks at High and HIllside/Moores Pike.
The sidewalk closed signs have been removed from the new pathway on High Street, yet the new driveways that were poured are several inches higher than the pathway. This is a significant hazard for pedestrians, and bikers.
The reflective signs designating the runoff/curb/flower boxes on Allen Street are white. They completely disappear in the snow. Several cars have driven into and over the curbs. Large yellow/green/red signs are needed to make these less hazardous.
The pedestrian crossing signal button to walk from East to West across S Walnut St does not work. The one on the south East corner. I've tested it a few times in the late afternoon and waited through several full traffic light cycles. The pedestrian crossing buttons on the other corners and directions do work.
The sidewalk / side path that runs through the South East park near the tennis courts is substantially below grade of the adjacent Moores Pike roadway. I walk through here on a daily basis, often with small children, and it feels a bit dangerous when cars are zooming by. Has the city considered a guardrail or other physical separation here?
I had an unpleasant near miss biking the small connector trail that Weatherstone down to Highland Ave. At the bottom of the hill, a scooter was on its side, in the middle of the pathway. It was not visible until almost right on top of it, and I came close to wiping out. The city needs to find a solution to scooters that are abandoned haphazardly on sidewalks and bike trails. This is not the first incident I've had, and certainly won't be the last. Eventually someone will get seriously hurt.
Path on west side of South Sare Rd between E Moores Pike and E Catchcart st is partially blocked by vegetation. Narrows path to about half width.
invasives and other brush along Side path on South Sare from Buttonwood to Rogers is badly overgrown
Trail along South Sare from approximately Canada dr south to Jackson Creek middle school crossing is very overgrown and needs mowed. This is a yearly occurance, also please maintain through out year. Thanks
