The trash and recycling bins were on the sidewalk in front of the house this evening (Thursday). Since the bins were full and their trash day is Monday, I suspect the bins were placed out 4 days early.
Has not cleared sidewalk from the snowfall of a few days ago. Perhaps is unaware that they need to
Sidewalk is nothing but ice. I just about fell.
Snow not shoveled
The snow on the west sidewalk is piled up so high it is impossible to walk through. It is more snow than nearby un-shoveled areas. It creates a dangerous situation for pedestrians, forcing them to the street.
The sidewalk at 422 East Hawthorne still has not been shoveled. It was not shoveled after the Monday/Tuesday snowfall, and it was not shoveled after the Thursday snowfall. Weirdly, the front steps, porch and walk of the property have been shoveled, but not the sidewalk. It has been more than 24 hours since the snow stopped.
Has not shoveled their sidewalk.
These lazy people have left their Trash and recycling bins in the street all week. Pick up here is Monday, it’s Thursday.
Trash and recycling containers have been on curb (road) for over a week
The curbs and speed humps on E Morningside appear to have been abandoned after the installation contract was completed. The first ones near E Saratoga and others are overgrown with weeds. It's not a pleasing sight for making a first impression near the entry to the Park Ridge East neighborhood. Residents seem to have not accepted an involuntary expansion of their lawn maintenance responsibility into the right of way on a busy street. Similar curbs near the park at the Park Ridge Road intersection are being maintained, maybe by city crews. Similar attention by the city for the other curb bump outs would be appreciated. An alternate remedy would be to cover the area of the bump outs with stone or other low maintenance materials that would reduce the recurring cost of cutting grass and weeds. A small tree planted in a bump out curb on the north side of E Morningside had its bark stripped off and branches broken last month, possibly by deer. Apparently trees were selected for planting without considering whether they have a natural resistance to deer. The tree had no protection from deer.
