I’m following up on 204624, which I reported last week. I was happy to see that a railing had been installed with 48 hours of my filing the complaint, and I know my complaint had nothing to do with the railing getting installed. I’m asking that the city pay more attention to these uneven sidewalks and require property owners to mark them with paint, cones or, in the best case scenario, railings. The uneven sidewalks seem to be likely a violation of the ADA. There was a similar situation in front of Sweet Greens before they finally installed a railing, and there is still a similar situation in front of CVS on Kirkwood. Thank you.
On Saturday, August 2, 2025, we went downtown to have lunch with friends. We parked on the north side of E. 4th Street a half block past Indiana Avenue. I stepped out of the car on the passenger side and stepped into a grass covered hole approximately 5 inches deep by 25 inches across . It had been mowed in such a manner to make it appear that the ground was level. I sustained a sprained left ankle plus a fracture of lateral malleolus of left fibula. I will be in an air cast for an indeterminate amount of time followed by physical therapy. I could only attach one photo, but, we took several more photos of the area. Was the City notified of this area before August 2nd? If not, you are now on notice and hopefully the hole can be filled in before someone else is injured.
Pothole near storage drain in sidewalk entering business
This is a man-made hole on Regents Court. They are throughout the St James Woods neighborhood off Moores Pike. Most have some cover. This one does not. It is a hazard for people who walk. Thanks.
Some sidewalks in the St James neighborhood off Moores Pike have low hanging branches obstructing walkers. These branches are from the trees planted by the City between the roadway and the sidewalks. In the past, the City has cut low hanging branches on trees and removed them. Will the City provide this service again to our neighborhood? Thanks.
Pavement repair is going to pieces. Chunks of asphalt are all over the road on top of the bridge. Vehicles are kicking up pieces of asphalt on other traffic. At the very least the pieces need to be picked up and hauled away.
pothole
Inner southbound lane as one approaches the lighted intersection with Grimes/Paterson Drive - four car lengths back from intersection and eight car lengths back ("lot for sale" sign to the right) are potholes that are increasingly deep and widening.
on North Jackson Street, just north of 9th Street, at entrance to Rev Butler Park, there is an extensive pothole --- and others as you travel north to BLIne crossing.
