The vehicle is up on a block, some metal and other junk in the driveway. It has been there since Christmas (I think). The windows are broken out and it is just an accident waiting to happen. I don't think anyone is living there at this time, grass has not been mowed for sometime. I believe it is a rental. It would be terrible if some kid died over there playing around.
Occupants said they don't own home and have no obligation to mow, maintain, upkeep, etc. Verified through GIS/Elevate they are owners of record since 2014. Yard has not been cut in 2020. Can't remember last time trees were trimmed. Debris stacked in front yard. Animals (foxes?) living under back deck. Home looks abandoned and is neighborhood eyesore. This same thing happens every year. Responsible homeowners are being penalized for having irresponsible (lazy?) neighbors.
Shrubs have overgrown onto the sidewalk.
Shrubs have overgrown, blocking the sidewalk. It is the only sidewalk on the street.
Sidewalk is blocked by overgrowth of shrubs. A great amount of pruning is needed.
The water meter for my house is in an awkward position and my plumber said to contact the utilities to have it set right. He recently had to shut off the water at the street to make a repair in my house.
There has been a fish kill in Jackson creek, just off the trail. The water is clouded, smells foul. Dead fish are all over the rocks.
Upholstered sofas and other furniture on the lawn between houses at 1000 and 1002 East Atwater.
We don’t have any crosswalks for several blocks in either direction, and there are many families with young children who live in the immediate vicinity. We have a lot of traffic coming north off the bridge that are driving way too fast, and it’s extremely dangerous to cross the street here. With talk of adding curbs and repairing the sidewalk at my property, 1107 N Madison, I suggest putting a crosswalk over Madison st, on the south side of 15th. (Photo above). I regularly witness vehicles, both emergency workers and civilians, driving so fast that It is incredible dangerous to cross the street, even for an adult. A bump up crosswalk, like is being Installed on the new 17th/vernal pike, would go a long way towards slowing vehicles down and making them more aware of their surroundings. Even without a bump out sidewalk, a marked crosswalk is absolutely needed. Please respond to talk more about it!
