I was stopped at the intersection of Woodlawn and 17th street at the new light. I was attempting to make a left turn to proceed west on 17th. It was after midnght. I there was no east-west traffic at all which had the green. I waited for 4 minutes and no change. This intersection controller needs to be checked to make sure it will switch the opposing traffic to green upon sensing a vehicle promptly if there is no east-west traffic.
There are at least 2 street lights out on 14th street between Walnut and Dunn. This is a dark area and needs more light anyway, but when the existing lights are out, it is clear why crimes can occur in this general area.
Third Street between Woodlawn and Indiana intersection is a problem. It narrows to one lane near Indiana, but the traffic at the light at Woodlawn does not know it will narrow. This results in traffic tie ups and unsafe manouvering to get a better spot in line. Please move the warnings and signs about the single lane closer to the traffic light at Woodlawn, if they can see the problem earlier it will be safer. Someone tried to cut ahead by using the bike lane and sidewalk today.
Little metal nubs on planter curbs are unsightly, uncomfortable, and remove a primary purpose of a sitting space. They should be removed.
Our neighbor, James True, address 712 W. Rosewood Dr., has seriously neglected the maintenance of his back yard lawn. By our count, he has mown it once completely, and twice when he stopped half way. The current state is that his lawn is too high for a power mower to deal with. The weeds are very high (two to three feet) and the space clearly harbors rodents and snakes. Yesterday, a two and a half foot long black snake was found on the edge of his property. Further, his older Volvo sedan has been sitting on the street along side our for property at least two months. In the past we have contacted him, but I fear this time more authority is required. Thanks very much for your help! David
Property at 1826 E Hunter Ave has mowed their yard once this year. It is completely overgrown. Have spoken to neighbors about in the past (they, by habit, only mow it once a year), but nothing has changed.
House at 1826 E Hunter Ave has had their empty trash cans and recycle bin out in the street since Monday morning's trash pickup.
Very disgruntled gentleman said there's a dead tree in the 1400 block of West 11th. The woodpeckers have gotten at it and if the tree falls it's going to be dangerous. Said he's reported it 3 times and nothing has been done.
There is a dead deer inside the SW baseball field (the one closest to Winslow and S. Highland). It is in far left field, near the fence. Maybe it jumped the fence and didn't make it. It probably should be removed ASAP.
