per Case #206391, it has NOT been resolved; driving over those metal plates even at 5-10mph still poses a moderate risk to any vehicles driving over it. This is not a safe surface to drive over.
On September 29, the road project on 2nd Street near Rogers involved shutting down Rogers just north of 2nd Street. I live in that area, and in order to get to my home, I had to get out of my car twice to move blockages in the road. At the intersection of 3rd and Rogers, there was a barricade that I was able to drive by, but it was barely passable for my car and I had to almost drive up on the curb. Then at the intersection of Howe and 2nd, I had to get out of my car to move construction cones. There were cars going through the intersection and it was dark, so that was not a safe situation. Then when I tried to pull into my drive, there were construction barriers blocking it. I had to get out of my car again and ask a street worker to move it. He was very nice, though. The issue only took place that evening, but I wanted to report it since it was difficult and dangerous.

Trees/shrubs are overgrown and obscure visibility. If you're heading east on Dodds and waiting to cross Walnut, you have to pull forward until you're partially in the road in order to see if traffic is clear. This issue also exists at the intersection of Dodds & Washington (heading east) - you can't see if anyone is coming on that one-way road (or if anyone is about to cross the crosswalk) unless you pull all the way forward. This is especially dangerous because the stop sign itself is almost always obscured by a tree branch.
When turning right from S Highland Ave onto E Hillside Drive, vegetation on the left badly blocks the view of oncoming traffic on Hillside. You have to nose your car well out into the street to be able to see to the left and verify that it is safe to turn right onto Hillside. Please have that vegetation trimmed.

I sent in a concern several weeks/months ago regarding this area and nothing has been done. There are cars and trucks that park on the east side of Auto Mall Rd, especially up to the point where people leave the Smile Doctors parking area and have a difficult time pulling out as they cannot see oncoming traffic from the south side coming from the Kroger area. I believe this area was once painted with yellow no parking paint, but it is being ignored as it is worn off an no one is enforcing it. It is very frustrating and there will be an accident sometime soon! Please paint the curb immediately!
Two holes were left after work to install new tv cable. The 8-10” holes are in the verge I presume is city property at the southeast intersection of these two streets (Nancy and Hillside) and are deep enough to be a hazard. My wife stepped into one of them and came very close to damaging her knee. They needed to be filled in or appropriately covered.
