Lights too bright at this marathon. Too many lights visible everywhere and glare.

Cherokee drive is now a through street to Osage place and already drivers are driving too quickly down the hill. I'm requesting that a traffic calming bump be installed somewhere in the new Osage place Cherokee Drive. Thanks for keeping our narrow street safe.
Missing sidewalk, muddy mess, lots of foot traffic.
‘Chickening’ rental sign in the grass right next to the sidewalk. ROW?
Since the crosswalks have been placed, with the school sign looking very similar from behind when heading South, it gives the impression there is a stop sign. I have been here for a year and watched 3 car accidents. The company, who is my landlord, has been there for 35+ years and said since the crosswalks, there have been 3 accidents and several close calls. I am a social worker, who works with kids. I don’t know why there is one 4 way at the sign, but not at the other end, on 8th street, that is within school/church grounds. Please bring attention to this urgently, I have a feeling something bad will happen to a child if something isn’t done here and will be saving this documentation for myself, so if something does happen, I am not liable and this is all screenshot, so you are aware and this could be held liable in court proceedings if nothing is done.
Instead of slowing down when motorists see pedestrians attempting to cross 3rd Street, they instead often speed up and appear to only have their eyes on the stoplight ahead of them and other cars, especially westbound traffic when the pedestrian is crossing the crosswalk from The Burger Bar to head south to the other side where the apartments, bus stop, and Pizza X is. East bound traffic is only slightly more gracious (likely because their eyes aren't fixed on a stop light that is around the corner and somewhat out of view.) Obviously, I would not walk out right in front of a car, but only cross when the Westbound traffic is high up on the hill, but they accelerate driving downhill regardless what color the stop light across from the police station is. They accelerate for red lights, even though they are hurrying up to wait. Just overall hostility and carelessness at this cross walk. Perhaps a push button with flashing lights would be appropriate here since drivers ignore the pedestrian signs and painted cross walk.
Speed bumps/rumble strips. Pedestrian crossing light. I’ve been almost run over numerous times here in the crosswalk people are going 40 or 50 miles an hour—-very dangerous for pedestrians crossing.
Requesting new sidewalk along N Fairview St between BLine Trail and W 11th Street. Sidewalk is cracked/broken. Access issue for wheelchair
There is a restaurant named la Bodega right next to healing hands thrift store that has tree like landscaping on the walkways. They are basically blocking the sidewalks. One is on the ramp which makes it even more difficult for those with disabilities. I tried to remedy by discussing it with the restaurant but it seemed with they did not care or did not understand the problem with it.
We have had multiple incidents on our street due to people driving too fast and visibility issues for drivers coming out of E Allendale Road. A car flipped and landed at the entrance of Barkley Square apartments, a car went off road striking the corner of a carport and edge of a house, a woman was killed after striking a moving vehicle and most recently a young woman struck our walnut tree at the edge of our driveway suffering a concussion and a broken arm. Totaled her car and the other driver’s car was damaged badly but her airbags seemed to have prevented injury. We, as well as our neighbors have had to replace our mailboxes several times. It is a matter of time before someone on the sidewalk is struck and killed. I have not seen police stopping speeders on our street for some time. I believe some type of traffic calming devices would help as no one drives the 30 mph speed limit on this road.
