excessive growth on sidewalk
excessive growth on sidewalk
Overgrowth blocking the sidewalk.
Sidewalk between Winslow Plaza & Graham Dr on east side of S Henderson are overgrown with tall weeds. A friend has called twice and weeds have not been cut.
More than half of the sidewalk on the northwest corner of 1st & Henderson (Henderson Street side) is overgrown with plants/bushes/weeds. You can not navigate a wheelchair or have 2 people walk side by side.
Bushes are over grown onto the sidewalk.
Public Works received this via e-mail. The sidewalk near the intersection of Smith Road and Grandview Drive, underneath the railroad tracks is still unswept from the winter's sanding of the streets. Weeds are also growing and it just looks bad. Mr. Arvesen states that this is the third year in a row that he has contacted the city about this problem.
The sidewalk south of Taylor Ct along Olcott Blvd has about a 1" of sediment on it and needs cleared. There was some ponding occurring on the sidewalk but we shoveled a channel through the tree plot to release the water to the inlet in low point of the road.
M. Symmonds emailed the City through the E-Government Web Site regarding a Jeep that is parked on the sidewalk, therefore, blocking the sidewalk on North Forrest Avenue behind the closed the Beta Theta Pi fraternity house.
NW corner 1st and Henderson. A very large and very dead maple tree hangs over sidewalk and street. Neighbors are very concerned about falling dead limbs or possibly the entire tree given we are headed into the windy/icy/snow season.
The trees and bamboo are blocking the sidewalk.
