Street Trees
710 N Fess AVE
- Case Date:
- 6/3/2024
Large (beautiful) sycamore on the SE corner of Fess/11th is encased in vines, some of which are poison ivy. This is right by the sidewalk, and appears to be in the City ROW. Is the trimming of the vines the responsibility of the owner? Elevate says IU owns this parcel. It looks like the vines are so heavy that it is stressing the tree. There is also a large maple (?) just east of it that has some vines, but it only looks like a Euonymous.

Excessive Growth
322 E 12th ST
- Case Date:
- 6/24/2024
Yew bush/tree has grown out so far that it halfway blocks the sidewalk. This makes for a dangerous situation at night because the sidewalk is in really bad shape at the same location. Those two things together pose a major trip hazard if people have to navigate around the yew in the dark and also have to watch their step on the crumbling sidewalk.

Accessibility Problem
418 E 8th ST
- Case Date:
- 7/2/2024
Vegetation overgrowth on sidewalk. Not sure if this is responsibility of CFC who owns the parking lot or the house owner of 418 E. 8th as it appears to be in between. But there is now a path that people are going into the grass because nobody can get by the tree branches on the sidewalk.
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
701 N Walnut ST
- Case Date:
- 6/23/2019
On Walnut Street the sidewalk near the railroad is covered in glass pieces, which is a hazard for people and animals making the sidewalk inaccessible for dog walking. There is also often glass in the grass between the sidewalk and the road, which again is a hazard for animals.

I believe this house is vacant because this trash has been here for at least the past two weeks. It is very close to the sidewalk and appears that it may have been disturbed by animals. It is at the house on the north side of 7th St, the second house west from the corner of 7th St and Dunn St.
