the section of painted bike lane on washington between 3rd and 2nd St's seems to have been removed. Maybe it just faded slowly and I'm just noticing it? Not that the painted line does anything anyway, but I'm just curious if something new is happening here. thanks!
The bike store recently put up a super bright orange neon light in the window facing Grant Street that says Velotric. It lights up the apartments across the street all night long. Can they turn it off at night or move it to another window? This is a neighborhood not a mall. They are the only busines in the area.
I contacted the property manager and she said that this light could not be shielded or dimmed or adjusted for "safety". I would like to see if this is something that would constitute a light violation for the city so that it could be adjusted. I made a previous request about this light due to it shining into our bedroom window after a tree was cut down which had been blocking much of the light. Is there something that could be done?
The unimproved city owned right of way of Alexander St, between 10th St and the B-Line, has recently been occupied by neighbors. The right of way is used as a walking route by the neighborhood in conjunction with the B-Line. It hasn't escalated to conflict yet, but it is currently a little awkward. Adams St is a lot less pleasant to walk on than Alexander. Adams is noisy with car traffic, often cluttered with trash cans, very unpleasant in the rain and utterly unusable in the snow when the snowplow plow the snow out of the street onto the sidewalk. There's plenty of on street parking on 10th. The unimproved route is a bit muddy in wet weather, and it would be good if there was a sidewalk connecting the street network with the B-Line (much like the B-Line - Butler Park connector on the southeast side of the railroad overpass over the B-line). While the route on the Alexander ROW (on the west side of Rick's Towing lot) needs to be defended, if a connector is to be codified in asphalt, the Summit St ROW (on the east side of Rick's towing lot) would be better and serve more people (especially because of the walkway on BHA property between 11th +12th Sts, west of the the gas station and the Boys and Girls Club) if a connector was to be built.
Joe Davis Political Candidate for Monroe County Clerk has signage in the street parking area advertising his campaign. At night there are bright blinding lights that light up his political campaign signs.
Corner house appears to be making a new circle driveway? Constantly parking in grass near corner intersection of roads and not in their driveway. Muddy and tracking out into road with ongoing rain
There is an old light pole half way along the alley with a flood light high up that glares light across several lots and shines into my house and porch (748 S. Morton St.). This is not a Duke Energy pole. It is only identifiable by a number 4, about to fall off, and an inspection medallion dated 2003. The pole right at Morton, to which it is connected, says it is owned by Public Service Co. of Indiana, pole number punched into metal plaque 1627-709 and maybe also punched notches for Customer and Owned. An inspection medallion that says OSMOSE insp. 2018. D. This simplest way to end the light leakage would be to remove the light. If properly shielded to prevent the light leakage of course that would be okay too. I have photos, but I can't figure out how to add the file to this UReport. If you could send me an email address I can send the photos as a Word file. I would be glad to meet someone from the city and show them the source of the problem. Thanks for your help. best, Jean Lave
Bike lanes on N. Smith Rd.need to be swept. The south bound lane from the Short Stop to Grandview Is particularly bad - full of yard waste, road debris, small bits of gravel, etc. Near the top of the hill, where the 14 foot sign is, there is a bush growing over the lane and face-slapping vegetation hanging down over the lane. I’m wondering if there is any regular schedule for sweeping bike lanes? At best, it seems this one gets swept about once a year. Sweeping the hill every couple of months wouldn’t be too often. The bike lane is narrower than recommended width to begin with. It gets really dangerous when we have to ride near the white lane (or sometimes in the car lane). The painted lines make drivers believe everything is ok as long as they stay between their lines and they don’t realize how closely they are passing vulnerable bicyclists. I’m sorry I don’t have pictures of the bike lane. But it should be easy to see what I’m writing about, especially if you are on a bicycle.
