The City should check out the traffic issues happening on S. Woodlawn Ave from Maxwell to 1st. People are now parking on both sides of the street, often directly across from other cars, reducing this area to a single lane for two way traffic. This particular stretch of Woodlawn is relatively busy. People are parking so close to 1st on both sides of Woodlawn that sometimes you cannot even turn to go south on Woodlawn from 1st without needing to wait for a car at the stop sign on Woodlawn headed north to clear out (and hope the cars coming up behind it realize they need to stay back and let people through). I know legally right now the road allows parking on both sides. This could be evaluated and consider removing parking from one side of the street as people are not very smart about where they park and it is creating a hazardous reduction in traffic flow that is difficult for vehicles and bicycles to navigate.

Notice the wet sidewalk. The moisture is not rain; it drains out of the retaining wall. In winter it freezes and is dangerous for pedestrians i know that it is against code for a downspout to drain directly onto a sidewalk. This is different, but the danger is the same.

Was walking my dog near 811 S Fess Ave around 12:45p on 5/28/24 when a doe charged at us and would not leave us alone. A gentleman stopped his car since he saw what was happening and assisted in making sure we were able to get away. Assuming a fawn is nearby given the behavior. This keeps happening on a regular basis around Elm Heights and I do not feel safe walking around my own neighborhood due to the deer being too aggressive towards both humans and dogs.

Old cars and trash in the yard, which has not been mowed in awhile.

Hi, Every year our block has 1-3 fawns born and the mother deer are protective for about 3 weeks, and especially aggressive towards dogs. At the very end of the birth cycle last spring 2024, the city put a couple signs up to warn the dog walkers off our block. That would be wonderful to have again this year - our first 2025 fawn must’ve been born today in the backyard of mine (808) or my neighbor’s (810) backyard on S Fess. If we could please have 2 signs for the next month or so to post out front at the ends of the block, that would be very helpful. Some folks know the drill and move back quickly and others take less effective approaches that endanger themselves and their dogs. Thanks! MaryAnn

Both garbage and recycling bin lids have been broken for about a year. Recently, the recycling lid disappeared. I assume it got dumped into the truck, since it wasn't attached. At pickup today I noticed my recycling had not been picked up. Is it because there was no lid? How am I supposed to get new, functioning lids?

I picnicked in Bryant Park this afternoon and noticed a woman collecting plastics. I approached her and it turns out she a conscientious homeowner who lives in the neighborhood. She apparently petitions consistently to have the parks put in recycling cans. I would like to add my voice to the hers and the many others who are surely requesting such a service. Please install recycling cans in the city parks. Thank you
