I'm not sure who's responsible for this bank of lights on a high pole near the railroad underpass on East 10th St. Could it be shielded so that it lights whatever needs to be lit without being such an eyesore? It's very glaring, and the bulbs face outward (sideways) rather than downward.
Caller to HAND complaining about LED exterior lights on 2 Apt buildings located at the NE corner of the 800 block of N Madison with a 13th St address. She said that they are too bright and shine directly onto her property and should be directed down onto their property.
Unshielded lights on East side of building left on 24/7 Light element in lights are visible at property line Light trespass UDO violations Glare, Shielding Chapter 20.04.090
Light for Cory lane traffic to turn east or west last 30 seconds! Why do two cars need 30 seconds while the 30 cars trying to go east and west get stopped so frequently? This is a nightmare in the morning. No cars even on Cory Lane and I'm stopping at a red light for no cars! It's been like this since W 3rd was paved. How long will it take to fix this one?
Dang turn signals turn on when no cars are in the turn lane. What's up with that? Makes me want to run the red light. I guess that is ok.
