There is vegetation growing by the stop sign at the NE corner of Washington (southbound) and Grimes (east-west). Cars that are traveling south on Washington cannot see to their left at the stop sign with Grimes, and cars traveling west on Grimes cannot see to their right whether a car is stopped on Washington St. I have witnessed multiple near-accidents now, with many cars stopping behind the vegetation and then proceeding through the intersection without creeping forward to check for other cars on the cross-street.
Case # 204572: There have been 2 new reports of the same issue in the past week by random other people. It's an issue. The City's belief it is not impeding line of sight for traffic is dumbfounding at best. Have someone else in a regular sized vehicle drive west on Grimes from Lincoln to Washington and decide.

Tall grass blocks the view of traffic and pedestrians at this stop. If travelling west along Grimes, the grass blocks the view of Washington to the right/north. Might not be a problem for trucks and tall SUVs but in a sedan or compact the view is completely obscured.
Weeds are so overgrown at this corner that cars turning onto Kinser from Brookdale cannot see Cars coming from the north.
At corner of Ralston Dr and Rockport Rd there is a line of sight hazard due to very tall foliage. It is very difficult to see traffic going NE on Rockport without sticking your car out into the road.
The street lights need to be reangled or shielded so the light shines only onto the intersection and stops blinding the houses at the intersection. The light on the southwest corner is particularly bad due to the height of the land and the angle of the light. We issued several complaints when the intersection was re-done and nothing has ever been done. The light pollution is terrible at this intersection and there is no reason it should be brighter than even Walnut and Winslow. Please install light shields to angle the lighting properly.
Heading east or west on 2nd street/bloominfield rd. The intersection at Adams is really out of hand. East and west always has a red light which builds up traffic while adams north and south rarely has a single car pass. In addition the light at patterson and 2nd heading east and west is always missed timed with the light at adams. When adams goes green heading east, patterson goes red. Please please help or at least respond via email and give a reason as to why these are so poorly timed.
The intersection on 17th Street and College avenue. The stoplight where you turn left on College Avenue, the left turn signal is about a second long giving no time for cars to turn left.
