Trash

Case Date:

This empty lot is on North Summit two lots South of 11th. This collection of garbage occurred from a camp during the last several months. The camp has since vacated and has relocated. The same result is sure to occur again unfortunately at a new location. This was reported at the beginning and was told nothing could be done and the neighborhood should work it out. This issue is destroying our city. Regardless of this being a private or city lot or in what area of the city this is taking place someone in city government needs to take ownership and provide the leadership and use of city resources to remedy this issue. Citizens and neighborhood associations can only do so much. Landlords and property owners need to be held accountable. Action needs to be taken. The problem is only getting worse. This case needs to remain active until this situation is resolved. A simple drive by is no solution. It’s obvious that if we cannot take care of the issues on Kirkwood (the focal point of our community) current department leaders are not qualified to continue in their positions. This can be remedied without being harsh or heavy handed. It takes leadership, commitment, communication and perseverance.

This is the 3rd time I've reported this issue (previously reported on Oct. 12 and Nov. 15). On the west side of N. Williams St. between 8th and 9th Sts. (location: 39.170070, -86.543292), the yard is so overgrown that it blocks half the width of the street, making it difficult to navigate when other cars are approaching during most of the year and impossible to navigate when snow plowing further narrows the passage.

We live in Gentry Estates (1037 S Graywell) and have had Comcast internet for 8 years. Recently our internet went up from $60 to $90, after we received an email that they are raising their prices. This is not related to any discounts/offers we had expiring. This is an incredible price jump. And it seems particularly troublesome given the recent installment of fiber optics in our neighborhood. We assumed there would be some price competition, not increase in prices. I think you should be aware of this. We do not know the price of the new fiber optic service yet - but we wonder if their installation cut so many cable/internet lines that it raised the cost of Comcast in our area, for example.

The newly redone exit on Clarizz for Bloomingfoods East and the new apartment complex is too narrow by about 3 feet. It is nearly impossible for two vehicles to be in the intersection at the same time, and turning in or out is in-executable while another vehicle is present. Personally I have seen many instances that a car has to stop in the intersection to allow for a car to clear the way. This is a highly trafficked intersection that will only become more heavily traveled once the multiplex is finished and occupied. Thus, this intersection poses great risk for incident in its current configuration.

Contractor/company installing public project fiber has not provided any advance notice to any neighbors. Instead, we all received flyers AFTER work was done. Several issues with work existed, but the number goes to a voicemail and language barriers prevented communication with staff onsite with some neighbors. Please make sure work and appropriate rehabilitation occurs with large City projects such as this. Machinery should be parked on pavement, not yards, for instance overnight, etc.

Traffic Signals

Case Date:

Recently, I've noticed something odd with the timing of the traffic lights, to the point that it almost seems like the city's purposely changed them, I'm not good number of flights around town as soon as one turns green and you start the next one will purposely turn red before you even get to it and this is many many of the lights around town day and night so you literally have to stop at every light, honestly this was done on purpose?
