Parking on Unimproved Surface

2419 S Milton DR

Case Date:
4/2/2024

My only parking place is deteriorating and the steps to my walkway are a hazard. The last couple rains we have had have washed a lot of dirt and gravel onto my grass. Can you add some railroad ties to reinforce this parking space or move my parking so that is goes to my side yard instead? I can add gravel but at this point it will just wash onto my lawn? I have fallen so many times the way this is currently setup. if the parking strip was more of a gravel drive way I could more easily get my garbage cans up to the street with out falling.

Biking & Walking

396 S Washington ST

Case Date:
3/7/2024

Hello- I was actually hit by a car on washington between 3rd and Smiths St's tonight, 3/7/24 a bit after 6 pm. A Porsche SUV driven by a college-aged female drove up next to me, then attempted to turn west onto Smith directly in front of me causing me to run into the passenger side door with my elbow and bike. I had a rear blinking light on, so this person had to have seen me as she approached. I'm fine; I yelled some very not-nice things and continued on my way. I know there's nothing to be done here, but in the interest of logging yet another incident in this area, I wanted to report. thanks again. Sorry, no picture.

Biking & Walking

1100 W Allen ST

Case Date:
3/1/2024

Heading west has one going up a steep hill, so sometimes I'm only going 8-10mph. Routinely do drivers pass me on my bike at dangerously close range. They also have on multiple occasions threatened me, verbally harassed me, and driven recklessly on this stretch. Street space is limited, so I would suggest yellow flex posts in the middle of the street to prevent reckless passing and so bikes can take the lane.

Scooters, Bike-share and Related Issues

Case Date:

I rented a Bird bicycle to ride home a few weeks ago. The bike has still not been removed from my property even though I reported it to Bird through the app using their removal form. I contacted them at least twice since then with no response and the bike is still on my property. How do I get rid of it?

Sidewalk Requests

2626 S Bryan ST

Case Date:
2/14/2024

I watch people walk by my house all day and worry about cars who constantly cut the corner. Today I heard a man yelling at a jogger to run on the sidewalk, but there isn't one. There is much more foot traffic in this neighborhood with the b line trail having a path right onto Bryan Street. I wouldn't mind a sidewalk going around my house

Sidewalk Requests

1609 S Rogers ST

Case Date:
1/18/2024

I would love to see a proper crosswalk and sidewalks added at all sides of the Rogers and Rockport intersection. I would also like to request a completed sidewalk added to the east side of Rogers between Rockport and the Switchyard Park entrance. Families from Rockport Hills and the surrounding neighborhoods often walk over to Switchyard Park and I personally have had and witnessed numerous close calls attempting to cross Rogers to enter Switchyard Park on foot. It would be great to have some sort of crosswalk added at the Switchyard entrance to aid those on foot trying to cross Rogers and enter the park. During larger events when the park parking lot fills up, there is overflow parking in the field in front of Catalent. Then a huge flow of people are forced to wait for traffic in order to essentially jaywalk into the park. It seems to me that some infrastructure improvements are needed for this area of Rogers St. to facilitate the main entrance to one of the largest parks in the city. Finally, I think it would be great to have some sort of high retaining wall built around the massive eye-sore electrical transfer station directly across from the park entrance (similar to the one built right next to the Upland Woodshop). Thank you for your time and consideration!

Unsafe Buildings

2603 S Bryan ST

Case Date:
1/2/2024

On December 30, 2023, a camping trailer arrived on the property and appears to be occupied, potentially in violation of city codes 20.03.030 (g) Accessory Uses and Structures. (1) Generally (C) Prohibitions. and 20.04.060 (n) Use of Parking Areas. (5) Storage, Occupancy, or Similar Uses. While the parking and occupancy of the trailer itself raise concerns, my main concern lies with the overall condition of the property. Over the past few months, there has been a noticeable accumulation of debris on the driveway, in bushes, and throughout the yard. This includes items such as tires, biking equipment, and various other objects scattered about, which detract from the character and property values of the neighborhood. I understand that personal property management is an individual choice, but the current state of the property at 2603 S Bryan St significantly impacts the surrounding environment and creates a less-than-desirable atmosphere for neighbors. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could investigate this matter and take appropriate action.
