Hello, I have a question about the city's pesticide program. I was wondering if fireflies have been taken into account, including how firefly hang out in grasses and, especially, how firefly larvae eat various insects and other creatures that might have ingested pesticides. Since fireflies are diminishing throughout the world for various reasons that seem to be mostly unknown (besides the obvious like habitat loss), pesticide use and light pollution are two theories for why based on current research. The pesticide-use theory links it to a slow diminishment, so still having fireflies doesn't mean pesticide use isn't an issue. I am grateful for the fireflies we have in our area, and this question has been on my mind for a while, so I wanted to check in and see what information you have. I appreciate your time. Thank you, Karisha Kirk

Could the City install a sidewalk along the west side of Dunn between Cottage Grove and 12th Street? There are also a couple sections in that stretch where there isn't even a sidewalk on the east side of the street, and a lot of people walk down that street even though it is only one-way.

A large limb of a tree fell on the street. It is located in a city cul-de-sac. The tree is likely to be dead. Luckily there was no damage to cars and more importantly, no kids were outside as this occur during the storm last night. Could you please send someone to inspect the tree (and possibly other trees nearby) and also remove the debris currently on the road in the cul-de-sac? Thank you!

I have a large pothole in the street at the end of my driveway. It's the result of people swerving around the speed bump in front of my house and eroding the edge of the road. I would be very grateful to have it repaired as it is quite deep. It was coldpatched during the winter but that has crumbled and worked its way out. Thank you very much, I appreciate your attention to this email.

The street sign at Nord and Normandale Highlands drive has been down (removed as part of electrical work) for 9 months now. Is this on your radar? The street sign has been laying in my yard this whole time. It has some graffiti on it now. Please let me know when this will be remedied Best - Scott

Our road Jennifer Drive needs related. The main road Laura way has been done as well as Bainbridge but because we’re an off street we seem to be ignored. There are many loose rocks along the sides of the road etc. we’ve lived here since it’s inception and do not remember it ever being resurfaced. Please look into this for us. Thank you for your time

There are multiple dogs residing in a very dilapidated trailer. The dogs escape from their pen outside regularly and are often let outside off leash, as well. These dogs run daily down the road towards heavily trafficked areas, including running on Country Club Rd and S. Rogers St.
