Requesting crosswalk paint at the corner of 6th and Rogers crossing Rogers St.
Engineering ordered and delivered a replacement sign for Valhalla Memory Gardens to be placed on the south side of the intersection of W. 3rd Street and Johnson Avenue, facing eastbound traffic. There is excess right-of-way to the south in that area due to the right-of-way purchased for the Basswood extension to Johnson.
Ms. Brashaber is concerned about lack of street lighting on N. Pete Ellis Dr between Amy Ln and Braeside Dr. She stated that there have been accidents in the past and asked that a street light be installed in this location.
Matt Murphy called to inquire when the 3 LED cobrahead lights on the pedestrian bridge along Country Club Dr would be powered up? Also reflective tape on the bollards needs to be applied.
At 1st and Rogers the lines at the stops are gone. Dr. Timothy Hodges has almost been hit and he would like to have lines on the road so cars know where to stop.
Very concerned about traffic along Rogers between the two roundabouts (High St and Sare Rd). Is often bumper-to-bumper around 5p and worried about kids/older people walking, especially coming out of The Stands or the Sherwood Oaks Church. Would traffic-calming devices be considered here? Or, minimally, signs to slow down traffic?
Called to complain about pathways in RCA Park. She said there are two pathways in the park, and neither of them are covered well. She is in a wheelchair and can't navigate the paths anymore because of the holes and ruts. Also wanted to complain about people sleeping in the park, often times intoxicated. She has called the police but they haven't done anything for the problem. She wants to be contacted about when the paths are to be fixed/what she can expect about the people sleeping/passed out in the park.
Complaint of high brush growing out into road, obstructing view of trail crossing. Located at the intersection of Gordon Pike and the Bloomington Rail Trail. The brush makes it almost impossible for cars to see pedestrians crossing the street on the trail. Request brush to be trimmed.
Caller reported that a receptacle (with dog waste bags) attached to the pole on the B-Line, just south of Allen, has been pulled off and is sitting on the ground next to the pole.
Dell Douglas called this morning to voice her concerns about bicycles on the paths and sidewalks at Bryan Park. During the past 3 years she has noticed more dangerous conditions due to the speed of bikers on the paths in the park. Most recently, she was walking far to the right on the path near the stream and a family on bicyles nearly ran into her. They were moving so quickly she was unable to say anything to them. She feels there is more disregard for pedestrians walking in the park and is afraid someone will suffer serious injury if things don't change. She would appreciate a call back from Mick after 6/14.
