IU Packer trucks are having a hard time getting access to trash containers along 9th because cars are parking along the curb. The sidewalk was recently re-done but curbs have not been painted. Thanks Jill
The sidewalk & public sitting bench are taken over by huge tarps covering shopping carts etc of personal belongings.
Commercial tent is setup, possibly distributing electronic devices. The sidewalk is blocked by traffic of customers. City curbs shouldn't be used for private commerce without permit and traffic plan.
Encampment of houseless individuals taking up on public sidewalk behind tree planter every night. The area is blocked during their occupation and when they leave, copious amounts of trash, discarded belongings, syringes etc are left behind to be cleaned up by others. The public defecation that takes place is a public health hazard.

Bricks surrounding this sewer grate in front of our local business were missing on Sunday 9/6/20. A city staff member who was in his truck next door offered to temporarily remedy it and came back to do so...the brickwork is not finished and needs to be professionally installed, as it's still a hazard to pedestrians. Too much space sits between the bricks and they are not securely in place. Thank you (and JD Boruff) for working on this, and past sidewalk issues along this block of East Kirkwood.
Back sidewalk entrance to people’s park is blocked by a person sleeping and by a sleeping cot. It seems to show up during the day.
The curb cut has turned into a sink hole at the southwest corner of 9th and IN. The sidewalk on the opposite corner (north side of 9th between Indiana and Fess) is also a problem.
