Growth reported by resident into the road at 2513 S Ford Ave.
Growth reported by resident into the road at 2513 S Ford Ave.
A gentleman stopped by our office this morning to alert us to an unsafe swing set that was installed in the yard of 825 S. Eastside Dr. He said that the swing is installed in a way that it would go into the road if someone was on it. He is nervous that a kid is going to swing on it unsupervised and go into the road. He would like to remain anonymous.
Property is overgrown and pulling off of Ford Ave to Ralston is dangerous. Caller stated they complain about this every year.
Sidewalk is blocked with overgrown grass and weeds along the sidewalk on Thornton.
The bushes and weeds behind 1306 S Madison St have grown almost completely across the alley. In order to drive thru this alley, one must drive through the neighbors parking area to avoid these trees.
A plant in the yard of 3401 Ashwood has grown over the sidewalk on The Stands Drive, making it difficult for kids to bike and others to walk on the sidewalk.
Excessive growth onto the sidewalk, not able to pass and stay on the sidewalk. This spot is the northwest side of the lot, same problem on northeast side.
Overgrown sidewalk at the corner of High and Second Street.
Intersection of Ruby and Circle Drive. This is part of the Allen-Covenanter Greenway for cyclists. The other day I was coming from Circle, ready to turn left on Ruby, when I almost hit a cyclist on Ruby, whom I had not seen because of the high grasses in the yard of the Ruby-Circle Drive corner house. Maybe the 2 bushes closest to the intersection could be cut back, for better visibility for motorists coming from Circle Drive.
About once a year, the alley ways need trimmed back of the bushes that overgrow into them. The area of concern are the alley going north/south just east of the Atwater Ave Subway restaurant between Atwater and Hunter, and the one going east west from Woodlawn to Faculty Dr. I drive these alleys daily and have noticed the branches have gotten to the point of needing trimmed. Thank you for your prompt attention.
