White lines for pedestrian crosswalks are severely faded on college mall road, which is quite dangerous—especially at night. Please repaint them.
A tree at the corner of Thatcher Court and Winston Street in Hyde Park has lots of dead branches that have been falling in recent thunderstorms into the traffic lane and on the sidewalk. It needs to be trimmed or removed for safety.

Weeds overhanging sidewalk on SW and SE corners of property, but it's not clear if plants belong to this property or the neighboring ones.
The water supply has had a noticeable odor an taste, over the past few weeks. Both at home, and at work. I've asked around and all of my colleagues on campus agree.
Downed tree on neighbor's property. Downspouts draining onto neighbor's property.
I own property at the lower end of Brooks Drive (1305). The section between where the cutout for my neighbor's drive and my property is covered by an easement I granted several years ago to the city. That section of pavement is badly in need of new blacktop as is the driveway on my property. I need to get some guidance about what I can do--and any help the city might provide.

Weeds and grass has been allowed to become wildly overgrown along the drainage ditch at the bottom of the valley in Crestmont Park. There is no reason that should be happening. It's not to prevent erosion. Grass doesn't have to be 3 feet tall to prevent erosion. It just keeps it from drying out and causes it to attract mosquitoes among other things. In addition, invasive vines have climbed and wrapped around many of the trees and many of the trees are surrounded by overgrown areas containing invasive honeysuckle and others. Not acceptable in one of our City parks.
Neighbor's house is barely visible due to overgrown plants. There is an infestation of rats, mice, moles, and snakes throughout their property, inside and outside. We keep our house well-maintained, but found evidence of rats and mice in our attic. We have an a/c unit up there and the wires were chewed. It was a costly repair and we were told that there could have been a fire. Numerous neighbors have talked to the homeowner at this property, but nothing has been done for years. We would really appreciate the city's immediate assistance in this matter before something serious occurs. Thank you!
