There's no sidewalk here, which means I can't walk - or even bike - my kid to school this way.

We desperately need a crosswalk here. Kids cross here all the time, because it's a convenient place to park and cross, but without a crossing guard we're at the mercy of traffic. And they are not merciful.
Large shrub (bush honeysuckle?) at NE corner of lot has grown so much that it is now difficult to pass using the sidewalk on Cottage Grove. The property owner/manager (sign in yard says "Thatcher Real Estate") never shovels the sidewalk in the winter, but maybe the snow/ice complaints submitted to HAND earlier this year never made it to them. Probably good to be more proactive about this report, since the shrub is not going to just melt on its own like the snows did...
Large tree-of-heaven growing on NE corner of lot alongside the alley and Grant Street, though cited in City ROW. This tree sends out so many seed every year, that properties close by regularly fight new growth. Very easy to see this tree, but best to send a HAND member who has had formal training to identify tree-of-heaven, else it might be missed...
The yard, front and back, is overgrown and badly in need of a lawnmower.
I need to report a pot hole issue in from of my house at 1921 W. Allen Street. There are a couple sever pot holes locate directly in front of my house in the west bound lane. They are so bad that west bound traffic swerves to avoid them into oncoming traffic. Also, there is another pot hole at the bottom of the hill in the eastbound lane as well. Could you fix them as soon as possible? Thanks, Mike Clendening

People consistently drive like maniacs exiting town from West Kirkwood Avenue heading west. At all hours of the day, including the evening and middle of the night, I hear people revving their engines like they’re on a racetrack—on a residential street. Considering there’s a school zone less than a half-mile down the road from where I live, it seems like there should either be better enforcement or more traffic-calming infrastructure in place.
Hole forming along street in front of driveway. Looking to fix before we repave driveway.
