BT is supposed to install some new bus shelters, so I wanted to discuss the one near the corner of 14th and College Ave. It's more or less brand new and it's really bad in some remarkable ways! 1) When they built it, they built it at least twice. I'm not kidding. They ripped out the concrete pad and started over. I've always wondered why. 2) I like that there is a garbage can, but they installed in on the side of the shelter that the bus approaches from. If you sit on the bench, you can't see the bus approach and I doubt the driver can see you either. 3) It might help to sit on the end of the bench farthest from the garbage but you can't because a couple of months ago, someone vomited on it and the roof of the structure has done a pretty good job of preventing the rain from washing it away. 4) That roof, incidentally, does not do a whole lot to shade me from the early morning sun OR any kind of rain that falls at any angle. Not, of course, that it's possible for many people to stand under that shelter because of that bench you can't sit on. ANYWAY. I'm not begging for an improvement or anything (though I wouldn't turn one down!) but these are all just sort of design and installation issues that I think BT should think about the next time they install a shelter. Thanks!

Parking department is a money hungry power scheme in the community that drives individuals away from visiting downtown shops and restaurants. For the individuals that always pay the meters and spend hundreds of dollars a year at the meters and then forget one time and have a $30 fee is ridiculous. The appeal process is also a joke. Need to reconsider how we treat our citizens and patrons of downtown businesses.

A request for snow removal practices going forward. The location is where South Morton ends at the Convention Center overflow parking lot. Vehicle traffic is stopped by three yellow bollards, but many pedestrians and cyclists use this road to enter the B-line from Morton St. In past winters, snow plows push the snow into a large pile that entirely blocks off the end of S Morton St, so even pedestrians can't pass through. In the past, I have shoveled a pathway through, but it takes hours depending on the size of the pile and how frozen it is, and I have to redo it every time plows come through, and I go through at least 5 snow shovels per year since they break from the amount of snow I need to move. Now I have a back issue, so I can no longer shovel a path through. Can you please coordinate snow plowing so that the end of S Morton is not entirely blocked? Maybe a smaller plow (like they use on the B-line) could work with the larger plows to keep the path as open as possible. Thank you.

There is a pothole in the street at the corner of Fenbrook and Sara. It started out a couple months ago about 1 foot in diameter, and shallow. It has now grown to a couple feet in size and is getting deeper. Residents, delivery trucks and service vehicles drive over it every day, and with winter coming, it is going to become dangerous. Thanks for looking into this matter.

We put out 4 bundles of yard waste and it was not picked up. We were advised that the bundles were too large and too heavy. We have rebundled these to adjust the length and weight and they should now be within the dimension and weight limits. Please pick up our bundles. Thanks.

People parked in handicapped space but not handicapped. They backed in so no one could see they don’t have a permit
