The fence that was installed along the border of a vacated alley is excessively tall. Can someone come out to this location to assess the height of the fence and the shed that is even taller that was built right on the property line. This fence blocks light and is very tall from my side of the property. I have other photos of this fence from different angles, but can't upload them here due to the limit of one photo upload.
The East-West alley in this location is not accessible by neighbors. This alley has not been vacated, but is blocked on both sides by gates installed by the property owner at 910 N Madison. The gate on the east side is topped with barbed wire and makes the gate on the back of my property that used to be accessible to the alley, no longer usable. These gates also block any pedestrian traffic from walking from the Habitat neighborhood to Madison Street or connecting to the alley in the Maple Heights Neighborhood directly on the other side of Madison. The blocking of this un-vacated alley with locks, gates, and barbed wire makes it inaccessible and gives the impression that it is solely for the use as a driveway for the property owner at 910 N Madison Street. Alleys are essential connectors in traditional neighborhoods like this one for pedestrians, wildlife, as well as for neighbors to access the rear of their property. I would like to be able to access the rear of my property through the installed gate once again. I have photos that show the area I am referring to, but am not able to upload them due to the limit of one photo upload. This alley would also be convenient to many people as a connector for walking to the western side of Maple Heights Neighborhood, Tri-North Middle School, or the public Mills Pool, but it is instead blocked for public use. I would like to request that someone come out to view this site and the fences for compliance with the alley being not vacated and for the use of barbed wire.

Today I was almost killed by a motorist on the 7th St. bike trail. There needs to be signage for the motorists. Too many out of town drivers on a regular basis to think it can be a learned infrastructure!
Car and truck drivers regularly speed down 12th Street between Walnut and Indiana, and do so at all hours. Now, in addition to that they have been racing up Lincoln Street between 10th and 12th, likely to avoid the traffic lights at 10th/Walnut and the new one at 11th/Walnut. Fully half of the speeding vehicles have "Dominoes" pizza signs on the roof. Why did the City allow a junkfood delivery service to be situated where they could race through a residential neighborhood? Is there a way to prevent the delivery drivers from using 12th Street and Lincoln unless they have actual deliveries in the neighborhood? Or at least slow them down a bit. It seems like a Stop sign at 11th/Lincoln would help on that street, and two Stop signs on 12th (at Lincoln and either Washington or Grant) would make it safer. PLEASE do something about this. It can only get worse if/when "The Standard" is ever done and occupied. It will be a nightmare unless the City is proactive and puts up Stop signs where they are warranted. (And the arguement that "No one stops at Stop signs" used by the traffic board in the past is specious. If true, why then are there any stop signs put up anywhere?
The path between my street and BHSN is dark and overgrown, creating a hazard for the kids who use it. It is located between 3401 and 3361 N Valleyview Dr.
