From Citizen e-mail: 401 Swain. The problem itself is around the corner on Atwater: overhanging branches which beat one in the face when one walks on the sidewalk.
She had called in a couple of weeks earlier about the problem with shrubs overgowing on the sidewalk making it difficult to walk along. Nothing has been done. Checked reqpro, request was entered 8/3/09.
Shrubs have over grown the sidewalk and are covering more than half of it.
Shrubs growing over sidewalk.
Wants Mayor to know snow removal Sunday was pathetic. He didn't see any trucks at all. Is this where you're cutting corners to provide benefits for domestic partners. He saw 5 traffic accidents and his car skidded on the slick streets.
Sidewalk on Maple from 5th to 6th was recently replaced. While it needed to be replaced, this was a historic sidewalk as are many on the west side. Policy should be developed to preserve historic sidewalks in original condition when repairing/replacing.
cable in his yard had not been buried in a timely manner and is not buried deeply enough; cable also runs across public sidewalk at 3103 Ramble Road West
Mayor Fernandez wanted to know if citizen action items can be tracked geographically. (e.g. tracking sidewalk complaints by location). This is something to look in when updating the system.
Comment/suggestion re: People's Park. Saw article in the HT about improvements. Would like to add a suggestion that the wall be removed. It attracts people to sit on it and attracts walkers-by to converse w/those sitting on it and blocks pedestrian traffic on sidewalk. In addition, it is dingy and unattractive. She applauds the Dept for its initiative to improve the park.
