Homelessness issue constant at CVS. They take over parking lot adjacent area with picnic tables. As of late individuals with machete makes one feel unsafe going to and from vehicles. I cannot imagine being staff there at night. Not to mention the constant abuse of the store facilities and restrooms. Can you all do something? This corporate store is no help for employees, why isn’t the BPD or city helping this issue?
This is an all-way stop with marked stop signs and crosswalks. Unfortunately, many drivers (mostly on Winslow going East or West) do not stop at all. And there are quite a few that don't even slow down if they presume no vehicles are close enough to hit them for speeding through unabated. A few anemic attempts to place police near the intersection at haphazard intervals hasn't really had a beneficial impact. This intersection is very busy and is a frequent crossing for pedestrians and cyclists along with school children. I have seen other communities that have purchased solar powered flashing stop signs that significantly increase attention to the sign. Or, to monitor the scope of the issue, and maybe levy some tickets, can one of the mobile police observation hubs (I see them at the Seminary Square Kroger parking lot) be placed at the intersection. I don't ever feel safe coming any direction in or out of my own neighborhood. With all of the out of town students and faculty returning soon, the problem isn't going to get any better. This has been a pervasive issue for the roughly 8 years I've lived in this neighborhood.
Very tall weeds, vegetation and invasive trees growing all around the house
One of the baracades from the new convention center build (in the back of our Music academy) was placed in a way where it is blocking access to one of our parking spaces. It seems to be placed outside of the gate that they erected and not on their property. It would be great if you could have them move it over so that we can access are parking. Also, there is a lot asphalt debris being left on our property as well from digging around that area.
According to Beacon (formerly Elevate), the chair of Art Commission lives in County near W Church Ln and claims homestead there. Again, how can that be allowed for only this commission? There are many good applicants for other commissions who are denied because they are not claiming voter registration at alternate family member address in city limits.
