Hi,
I am kind of confused about offroading laws / city ordinances. From what I can tell it is not illegal to drive a vehicle (say a jeep) on someone elses property unless one of the following is true:
- There are posted no trespassing signs
- You are told to stop
- You have to bypass some sort of security system (such as a locked gated)
This doesn't sound right to me though. Surely i'm missing something? Or is it legal to drive a vehicle on someones yard or something as long as you are not explicitly told not to? That would seem weird to me but I just cant find anything that says otherwise.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

Yellow curb painting needs to be done on W. 3rd Street between Fairview and Maple Streets (704-724 W. 3rd on north side of street; 715-731 on south side). Nearly all other blocks in this area were done a few months ago, but for some reason this block was not done and old yellow paint is nearly invisible. (See attached photo example of curb at mid-block alley point.) As a result, people are parking too close to alleys, driveways, etc., creating hazards for others. Thanks for your help!

Not a huge deal so long as it doesn't keep happening but only half of my cart was dumped in Park ridge East this week. (Trash, recycling was fine) Are they using automatic grabbers now? Please try to make sure it comes out of the can! Thank you

I think there may be a small pothole on North college between 17th and 15th. It is super round so maybe there is just some sort of cover depressed in the asphalt but pretty sure last few times I drive by it's a pothole. Thanks for taking a look.

Smoking Violation
903 N Smith RD
- Case Date:
- 4/26/2018
Spring has started and the outdoor smoke coming from the Barbecue is in full force at the Short Stop food-mart on North Smith Road. My wife and I had three meetings with the City Council about this issue in 2015. And 2 recorded meetings with the council as a whole and a second meeting a few weeks later. The smoke issue was to be addressed for this location. But Chris Smith sold the store without implementing the standards the City Council had requested he perform. He was supposed to install and indoor smoker by December of (2015) that never happened. And he then sold the business in spring of 2016. As an example of how bad this smoke is. I hung wet laundry outside yesterday (Wednesday 4-25-18). Hoping for that nice fresh air smell when it was dry. Our clothing smelled like we had been next to a campfire. So I had to rewash all of the clothing. This has become a HUMAN HEALTH hazard and it has not been taken seriously. The city did nothing after our meetings to address SMOKE issues from cooking outdoors. I really hate to call the Fire department each time I smell smoke. As the cost to the city will be ridiculous for putting out (3) outdoor smokers. But that is what I am going to start doing. As we cannot breath. She had a lung removed and everyone is turning a blind eye towards this fact. Let me know what the city can do. Our district representative Allison Chopra was at the meetings as she was running for office and won the election. But I was told she had slept since the meetings and did not remember the restrictions placed on the smoke issue. If necessary I can send you the link to the videos of the meetings and what was proposed. Thank You.

One of the traffic lights on north-bound 46 is off at the intersection of 46 and Curry Pike. It's the traffic light in the middle that signals the center lane. The other two are working.
