Potholes, Other Street Repair
1501 S Highland AVE

The double-yellow line and left-turn lane (westbound) on Highland have become very difficult to see. It looks like maybe road oil or asphalt has darkened or faded them after the recent repaving of the road. I've seen on-coming traffic (east-bound) not see the left-turn lane on Hillside to Highland, and have to swerve out of the way as cars enter the left-turn lane to go to Highland. Repainting the lines would help a lot!
Street Snow Removal
1216 E Skylark CT
- Case Date:
- 1/20/2019
Hi--we love the work the city road crews do to plow snow and sand for safe travel. We do have one request for our cul-de-sac, though (Skylark Court, east off of Highland Avenue). We'd appreciate it if the plow drivers could return and plow the large pile of snow covering the lone storm water drain off to the side, so as to uncover the drain. Also, in the future, can they please avoid piling snow that storm water drain. It is the drain for the entire cul-de-sac. In the photo, this location is shown approximately by the red arrow. When snow is piled over this drain, as snow melts from anywhere uphill, or if it rains, the snow pile caps off the drain and the bottom of the cul-de-sac floods. The storm water drain is at the bottom of the cul-de-sac, which is all one slope, so A LOT of water runs to that one drain. One concern we have with the flooding is that several utility hook-ups (electricity, telephone, and cable) are just a foot or two away from the drain. Things have been done this way for years, and we have always taken it upon ourselves to shovel the drain clear, but this year we realized it would be a great idea to ask if the plow drivers could do this instead.
Thank you!
