Can the speed limit be reduced near the entrance of Switchyard Park on S. Rogers Street? This is an entrance to the city's largest park and there will be a pedestrian crossing built that will also cross S. Rogers Street, to the park entrance. Currently, the speed is 30 mph, which will be too fast for a pedestrian crossing and the current busy park entrance. Per City Ordinance 18-09, the speed is reduced on Winslow Rd around Allendale Dr. to accommodate for the pedestrian crossing that is near a city park.
Other examples of reduced speed near park entrances includes (but not limited to): S. Highland Ave near Winslow Sports Complex and E. Morningside Dr. near Park Ridge East Park.

For years, the local government has done very little to celebrate Pride despite the large queer population of residents. Please tell me some sort of celebration or partnership is planned for this June? Thank you!

The light sculpture just south of the Dimension Mill only has a few lights working. This is a beautiful sculpture, and relatively recently installed. In its current state, it gives a blighted look to the space in the evening. Please repair the light sculpture. Thank you.
Drainage or Runoff
4315 N Kinser PIKE
- Case Date:
- 5/26/2026
Behind our house (to the west) is the Kinser Ridge development. After their work moving around dirt last week (they started on Monday 5/18) and then the resulting rain has inundated the silt fence and it is no longer standing and rainwater mixed with silt pours over when it rains.
The worst was Wednesday 5/20 where the silt poured down our driveway, flooded our garage and left 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch of silt in many parts of our driveway once the rain stopped. There has been no change in the silt fence despite my husband (Tom Grano) reporting to the city in multiple departments and speaking with the foreman of the development.
Today (5/26) the development is once again moving around dirt in that area. The silt fence needs to be repaired and a more permanent solution needs to be found as soon as possible especially with high probability of rain the next week days.
Our house is not the only property that has been impacted as the west lane of Kinser Pike flooded on Wednesday 5/20 and the silt could be seen as far down as Bayles.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

The grass behind the curb on the northeast corner of the 4th and Madison Street intersection has had a large gouge, caused by a tire, since last year. The gouge is very unsightly, especially for a recently improved intersection. It also releases muddy water every time it rains. Please repair the gouge and apply grass seed or sod (I recommend a small patch of sod, but use your best judgment). Thank you.

There is a utility pole at this location and there are always bags of (presumably) dog poop right by it. It seems like they pile up for a bit and then get cleared away, so I’m guessing someone is just staging their dog poop here before transferring it to an actual trashcan. It’s gross and I wish someone could catch whoever is doing this. The property at 2514 has a dog. Thank you.
