Business

1300 block of South Palmer Avenue

Case Date:
10/1/2025

There is a used car/truck business combined with a body shop business in our residential neighborhood. I believe the address is 1306 South Palmer Avenue, but I'm not sure of that number. If you come to the 1300 block of South Palmer Avenue, you cannot not notice what I'm talking about. Used cars and pickup trucks are routinely delivered, then refurbished at this, and then sold. This kind of activity should never be allowed in a residential neighborhood. I'm a homeowner living nearby, I pay city taxes to live in this neighborhood, and I beseech you to stop this illegal activity. This area is not zoned for business, it is not an industrial area; it is a neighborhood. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I expect a resolution to this problem soon.

Traffic Suggestions

4315 E 3rd St

Case Date:
10/1/2025

I witnessed a woman get struck by a pickup truck today at E 3rd and Morningside. This was an accident waiting to happen, as pedestrians and bicyclists on E 3rd Street are constantly risking their lives to cross it. The distance from the crosswalk at Smith Rd to the traffic light at SR 446 is 0.5 miles. (Note, there are also ZERO pedestrian crossing marks at the very busy intersection of 3rd & 446, where people with kids cross to get to Bruester's Ice Creamery.) HUNDREDS of rental units have been built on both sides of 3rd between Park Ridge and 446. A SAFE crossing should be added, with flashers or center island at Park Ridge or Morningside, or a traffic light should be placed at 3rd and Park Ridge.

Sewer Problems (Storm Sewers)

532N N Morton St

Case Date:
10/1/2025

This isn't a functional problem - it's a behavioral one. As I walked past the building on the NE corner of Morton and W 10th St, there was a man (who I'm assuming was employed by that building) using a leaf blower to blow a significant amount of debris into the storm drain on that corner. I asked him not to do that and why, but he continued to do it after I left. I don't know if there's anything that can be done, but I just wanted to share this with you!

Water Utility Problems

1333 W Tiffany CT

Case Date:
10/1/2025

There seems to be some kind of leak or broken pipe coming from the address I have listed. It’s been leaking like this since the beginning of the year. It runs off into the drainage, but once it freezes outside this could be a hazard for drivers and people walking in this area. I would know, I nearly slipped and fell several times on it in February. We would appreciate it if someone could come out and look at it.

1316 S Palmer AVE

Case Date:
10/1/2025

Used care repair business still going on. Cars being delivered and picked up on a regular basis, several mechanics working on cars until late at night, continues. Apparently this has been an issue that the city keeps “resolving” but nothing is changing. What is going on? why is this being allowed to continue for years. From the records, this house has had several complaints that the city resolves but remains unchanged. This individual used the street and parking spaces for his own private used care business. Property Taxes are way too high for this to be happening. The person in charge of these complaints is not doing his/her job at all.

City Construction Projects

Case Date:
10/1/2025

The current construction project on 2nd street is extremely disruptive and causes the building to shake. For necessary/emergency daytime construction this is totally understandable, but the project on 2nd st (between Walnut/Rogers) has been doing construction only from late evening to overnight around 4-5am every day. I have not slept since the construction started a week ago and it is scheduled to continue another full week. Even if there is a permit to be exempt from the noise ordinance, please consider rescheduling this work to take place during daytime hours. As I said, the deeper digging affects the foundation of the building, causing very irritating vibrations that give me headaches and make sleep impossible. It has affected my work life and mental health to miss so much sleep. My window faces the road and this has been an absolute nightmare of a time for me.

There seems to be a water leak at the sorority that is located on the corner of Woodlawn and 3rd streets. There is water constantly on the woodlawn sidewalk just below the water meter.
