Haven't mowed grass yet.
Haven't mowed grass yet.
I have to submit a complaint every summer about this neighbor who refuses to mow his lawn and he lives right next door to me which makes it even worse. You will be fining quite a few houses in the neighborhood (Westpointe - 2nd St and Adams)
shrubs on corner are overgrown and block visibility at major intersection with lots of pedestrian traffic
There is a large tree overhanging the street parking in front of 900 S Washington St with a very large dead section right over cars parked there. In the time I've lived across the street, two cars have been damaged by falling limbs from this tree, including one incident where a branch approx. 8" in diameter speared through someone's sunroof, totalling the car. The dead branch currently on the tree is roughly the same size and is starting to shed sticks and bark. I would like for it to be removed by the proper authorities before it falls on a car, or into the roadway or bike lane and hurts someone. Thank you!
Grass overgrown
Just north of 926 S. Highland Ave., a 15 ft area of the west side of the street (and storm drain) has crumbled to gravel-size and larger chunks of asphalt. As result of an earlier complaint, a small part was patched with blacktop that has now crumbled. My concern is not the ugly appearance. If we have a 5-10 year rain storm, the runoff down S. Highland easily will clog the storm drain underneath a parking area (owned by the city) in front for my home and likely will flood the first level of my home. I have observed the enormous flow of water in the storm drain during normal heavy rain and am certain an unusual downpour will now cause flooding. Please consider sending a truck to remove the street/storm drain debris.
S Brookside ends just past the intersection with E Sunny Sloped Dr. The past several years the City has mowed, regularly, the grassy extension of S Brookside (going north). But some years I have needed to send a reminder. The grass is getting pretty tall there now...
The portable restrooms located near the basketball court at Switchyard Park are in terrible condition and have been for weeks. The attached photo is an indication of how it looks every day. More generally, the restroom situation at Switchyard needs to be reviewed. closures during the winter months are not only inconvenient, they are not practical for the many people who use the park during the winter. Moreover, the amount of trash at Switchyard, especially near the pickle ball courts, the basketball court, and the bocce ball courts is awful. And on the bocce courts, there still is no rake for grooming the courts for play. I realize that the summer months are coming and there are likely to be more people working and volunteering in the park to keep it clean and safe. However, for a park as popular as Switchyard, there needs to be a review of how resources for maintenance are allocated to it. For example, there seems to be no reason the restroom within the police substation needs to be closed in the winter. And it would be nice to have lights installed at the pickle ball courts. speaking of the pickle ball courts, might it be possible to install a rack where players can leave their paddles to indicate who is next for a court? Maybe a 1-hour time limit if people are waiting? Thanks for listening.
