Invasive plants have grown so much that they are now blocking the sidewalk on the SE corner of this property.
I have lived on South Park Avenue for over a year and have found that the brush and foliage at 1200 South Park Ave (at the corner of South Park Ave and Grimes) is becoming a hazard for those turning out of South Park onto Grimes. The foliage has become so overgrown that it is very difficult to see the traffic coming from the left when you are stopped at the intersection and about to turn onto Grimes. You have to edge out quite far without being able to see the oncoming traffic. It is also very difficult to see South Park Ave. (and any potential cars turning out of the street) when you are traveling East along Grimes. The inhabitants of the home are not known within the neighborhood and so no one feels comfortable asking the owners/tenants to trim their trees and foliage. I am concerned that as the foliage continues to grow unabated that there could be a serious accident at this intersection. Not only is this a concern for those of us who live on South Park Ave., but for those who drive down our road each day to pickup and drop off their children at Templeton Elementary.
We Buy Houses sign still on utility pole on Winslow across from the Marathon gas station, near the intersection with Walnut.
1500 Highland. Owner is not impressed by the initiated enforcement action.(#169586, case closed).
The branches encroaching on the sidewalk have gotten to be too much on High St. just South of Wimbleton. Pedestrian traffic is significant here, especially now that school has started, and it's honestly challenging for adults to get past one another while ducking under the branches. This is a popular place for people to ride their bikes on the sidewalk, taking their kids to school, and an adult biking on the sidewalk going down the hill might be in danger of being decapitated by all the branches.
I’m not sure if this is the right spot. But in Sherwood Oaks II on Laura Way people speed horribly down that street (its the street that connects the old and new part). Can we get a speed bump or something that monitors speed through there?
A few times I have noticed scooters riding on the square. Yelling to the riders they have to dismount and they ignore me. I think these signs are too high so riders don't notice them. I didn't realize they were there for a while. Why not lower them to eye level so they will be noticed.
The Highland-Hawthorne Bike greenway crosses Hillside Drive at Weatherstone/Olive. This crossing can be difficult and somewhat dangerous, as traffic on Hillside often seems to traveling quite fast, and can be quite busy at certain times of the day. Could the city look into placing a button activated crossing here, much like the one for crossing Walnut at Allen? This could go a long way towards making this crossing a bit safer for families trying to utilize the greenway to access Bryan Park.
New sign in town! Corner of Covenanter and Rechter. We Buy Houses, Any Condition. The phone number differs from the other 'We Buy Houses' signs that I previously reported. Also, this sign is attached to the STOP-sign with cable ties. There were 2 more on the ground at the entrances to the Kroger parking lot nearby, but they had obviously fallen off the sign posts.
