I had sent in a request on 5/19/25 Case #202787 reporting that Olive Street needs a concrete curb installed. Due to the excessive rainfall this has caused flooding issues for 1502 S. Olive and the house on the corner of Hillside and Olive (1144 E. Hillside Dr.). I was informed that this was on the paving list and there was plans for an asphalt curb. I called on 6/9/25 and spoke to the Engineering dept. (Iris) about installing a concrete curb instead of asphalt. There is already a partial concrete curb that runs past 1502. It needs to have a concrete curb all the way up the hill so that rain will not flood into the driveway and along the house of 1502, plus it runs past the curb into the yard of 1144 E. Hillside causing flooding in the basement. They have a sump pump now, but it's old and could quit at any time. It's already August and there hasn't been any kind of activity on this street. Do you have an estimated date as to when the street will be paved and the curb installed? Also, there is a construction sign in the yard of 1144 E. Hillside that has been there all summer and would like it to be moved. Thank you for any information you can provide!
Audible traffic signals are not working at each corner of Union and 10th Street. This has been called in and they are still not working. There are several blind students crossing that intersection and it is extremely important these are fixed soon.
WRT #205296 - I have reported this in the past. Also, the city knows when students are moving in and out in August. Instead of leaving the heaps of trash by the ignorant or unwilling offenders (not asking for coddling), prepare the team for the excess and be ready with extra pickups, on the spot fines, knocking on doors to hand out the rules for example, to deal with this very predictable and temporary disturbance in the system.
City parcel on w Cottage Grove is overgrown and has been reported several times it's covering the sidewalk and it's the only sidewalk on the street that kids walking to school use. The weeds are also growing along the curb .
The recycle crew emptied only half of our recycle bin this morning and left behind broken glass from a bottle (which they evidently had fumbled) on the foot of our driveway and into street. I cleaned the mess up as best I could. They need to be held accountable about this. Please let me know what action is taken.
To Rhea Carter: Re Case #205383: my address is 1315 Sheridan--I should have included it yesterday. BTW, your message came from a "noreply" address so I couldn't reply directly.
