Hey, all. I'm at 4021 E. Morningside Drive. Unfortunately I've been experiencing some drainage issues at my corner since the installation of a wheelchair ramp for the sidewalk. There was no issue prior. Terrific having the ramp for folks, plus the earlier sidewalk, but unfortunately it has no lip on it at all. As you can see in the photo, the street is essentially level with part of my yard now, allowing even the smallest rain to flood the corner. I'd love to grow grass but am having difficulties because of the situation. There was grass prior, but someone crashed into the streetlamp, and when it was replaced, the ground got torn up a bit. Beyond my yard, a small pool exists along the corner until it dries out as well, as it is unable to pass on through. Also sediment as you can see in the photo (taken tonight a few hours after the end of today's misting) is washed into the street with each rain. Please see if there can be just the smallest bit of lip and/or incline added with the ramp/sidewalk to keep the water moving instead of creating a muddy corner. Thank you for any help! (Or ideas!) Any chance you all might have a square foot of sod that is fairly water tolerant that can just be placed down there? Might solve my issue without any need for changing anything with the concrete assuming it takes root. I appreciate the consideration and help. There is also a bus stop right at the corner, so more than just helping me, it keeps the bus waiters from standing in the mud.

There was a car accident on Indiana Ave. between 8th and 9th Street by Mather's Museum. There were 3-4 street trees that were damaged (and possible curb damage). IU has determined there were street trees planted by the City. Thanks Jill.

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!

There's nothing but weeds about a foot high in the boulevards and parkways on Sare Road just north of the roundabout and south of it. It looks terrible. Please cut the grass and kill the weeds.

This is the second time I have reported this issue. In the fall there was a water main break on our street and the water company did not properly repair the dig site. We now have a mud pit/hole at the site of the repair and we recently had a visitor trip and almost fall at the site.
I would appreciate this being fixed right away.
Thank you,

The curbs on the north side of Wylie St. between Hawthorne and Highland are a mess...broken up and full of weeds, unsightly for Gayle Cook and others who live on the south side of the street. Wondering if the city could take a look and possibly do something about them.
Disclosure: My husband and I have tried for years to keep the weeds down, but it is -- alas -- a losing battle.
Thank you so much for considering this request! I've been impressed with how quickly you all respond to reports. It's most heartening!
