411 E First Street, half of the sidewalk is covered by overhanging long grass. This was reported in the summer already. Nothing has been done about it.

I tried and tried to get the "location" to 2238 S Sweetbriar circle, but it kept saying 2227, not 2238. Anyway, the locust trees in the tree plot in front of my house have limbs growing toward the ground. I have to practically get on my knees when mowing to get under one of them. Many of the trees in this addition have limbs very low to the ground, sidewalks, streets, or peoples' yards and need some trimming.
Once again I tried to make the map show 2238 S Sweetbriar Circle, but to not avail. Behind my home there is a city right-away with trees. Many of them are those "tree of Heaven" trees from China. Several of their limbs are nearly to my newly installed roof and others, along with other vegetation are encroaching on my lawn. Mowing is becoming difficult, sunshine doesn't get through so I am seeing lots of moss and mold. Some of those trees need trimming and the brush needs to be cut back so I get some sunshine back there. Also since the city has redone a drain up on Henderson Street, I am getting lots of rocks, dirt, etc. with every rainfall that is filling up the area in the back. I moved here in 1998 and It has never been this bad until the drain was redone. Thanks for listening to my complaints. Hope these things can be fixed. The "tree of Heaven" trees are very nasty. They are terrible and multiply very quickly and grow extremely fast. Can anything be done to eradicate them? They root out any native Indiana trees. They need to be gone!
Left turn lane on 10th at Union and 10th badly needed. Constant backups waiting on one car. Or alternatively no left turn on 10th there permitted to Union either direction.
Vacant lot between 3124 and 3200 N. Ramble Road East. Neighbors complain consistently about difficulty of walking on this stretch of sidewalk.
Deborah Drive could use turn lanes to enter onto Tapp Road. Only access to medical park since I-69 project, and has a lot of traffic. Lanes are wide enough already. Often the right turn lane takes an excessive amount of time due to people turning left from the middle of the road blocking right turn access.
Stop sign (3-way) needed at Winslow and Highland.
I have currently lived on Kinser Pike for a little over three years, but in this last year I have witnessed two accidents right in front of my home. Two others were witnessed by my neighbors, for a total of four this year alone (not including the semi that took out the utility pole at the skate park). Just this morning (3/20/2019), a car spun out and almost crashed into the timber once again while I sat in my kitchen. I am extremely concerned about the curve on Kinser Pike right after the skate park. Traffic has become unbearable since we truly only have one way in and out of the neighborhood and to BHSN. I have also witnessed several school buses exceeding the speed limit by what I would guess is at least 10 MPH. I ask the city to please consider looking into this issue as we have children who live on this street as well as pedestrians crossing the street or using the sidewalks. This is still a neighborhood and it needs to be treated like one, not a highway.
I have been in my house for less than one year. I have a single dwelling on a corner lot and I have a question about the fence. I do not know who to contact regarding the zoning and pitfalls of the fence.
The intersection at E 2nd St and S Park Ave is unsafe. It's where 2nd St jogs to the south and it should probably be a four way stop. I'm not actually sure what would be best, but it's a dangerous intersection.
