While you are following up on case #205167, please also follow up on case #201463. The earlier uReport case requesting attention to the N/S alley stretching from 11th to 12th and flanked by 415 E. 11th and 800 N. Grant was marked "resolved", but nothing ever happened and now it is in even worse shape.
There is quite a lot of brush/foliage that has grown onto the sidewalk at this location. It is unclear which side of the property line the brush is coming from--whether that be from 508/512 N Indiana, or from 516 N Indiana Ave.
Brush/shrubbery are overgrowing onto the sidewalk on Indiana Avenue.
There is a missing street sign at the intersection of Kirkwood and ? Possibly Grant St. There is an uneven sidewalk plank in front of the corner bench at that intersection. While sitting there during the festival we watched nearly every passerby trip on that elevated sidewalk edge.
We are writing to report the poor condition of the gravel street in front of our property. On our very first day of moving in, one of our vehicles got a flat tire from the state of the roadway. We are requesting that the city repair the gravel street as soon as possible to prevent further damage and to ensure safe access for residents and visitors. Thank you so much.
The east alley running beside 417 East Cottage Grove Avenue (between 417 and 421 East Cottage Grove Avenue) is in need of repair. Asphalt is a preferred method of this repair (asphalt alley entirely from Cottage Grove Avenue to 11th Street). The gravel washes out on this alley due to its grade. This message is coming from the owner of the two properties 417 and 421, Stasny & Horn, IGP. Thank you for your time and assistance with this matter.
