The lot of land next to my home is extremely overgrown. It is right next to 5650 S Rogers Street. They rarely mow and we keep having problems with mice and snakes.

There was some sort of construction started on Rogers Street near the Community Kitchen/The Warehouse. Metal plates have been left over the holes, and one has shifted significantly, leaving a huge dip and an exposed metal edge that will pop a tire. The plates need adjusted ASAP
On September 29, the road project on 2nd Street near Rogers involved shutting down Rogers just north of 2nd Street. I live in that area, and in order to get to my home, I had to get out of my car twice to move blockages in the road. At the intersection of 3rd and Rogers, there was a barricade that I was able to drive by, but it was barely passable for my car and I had to almost drive up on the curb. Then at the intersection of Howe and 2nd, I had to get out of my car to move construction cones. There were cars going through the intersection and it was dark, so that was not a safe situation. Then when I tried to pull into my drive, there were construction barriers blocking it. I had to get out of my car again and ask a street worker to move it. He was very nice, though. The issue only took place that evening, but I wanted to report it since it was difficult and dangerous.
Traffic light timing is messed up causing delays on Rockport. It was fixed for a while but seems to be messed up again post the July 4th power outages.
I've noticed all this week that there seems to have been some changes to the timing of the stoplight at the corner of Rogers and Rockport. This has caused 5pm traffic to log jam all the way down Rogers, through the Grimes and Rogers intersection, even backing up to Allen St. or Dixie St. at times. People at the Rogers and Grimes light heading south then attempt to go around the jam by turning left on Rogers onto Grimes. This causes Grimes to back up as well creating further problems at the Grimes and Rogers intersection. The Rogers and Rockport light used to allow traffic to flow without issue, but with the recent change, only 3-5 cars are let through at a time before it's red again. It's turned my 10 minute commute home into a 40-45 minute nightmare. Please help!
Something changed in the programming or timing of this light in the past week. I noticed maybe Friday of last week that the light on Rogers was flashing yellow and someone was at the control box. Now, the light sits on red for a long time on Rogers. This week, traffic headed south on Rogers around 5pm has been backed up like never before. The backup extends from Rockport north to Grimes at a minimum. This is a huge problem and needs to be fixed back to its normal operation that kept traffic moving on Rogers.
Potholes at intersection of Rogers & Rockport by the gas station
All of the traffic signals on the intersection of W 3rd Street and South Rogers Street AS WELL AS W 3rd Street and South Madison Street (separate report filed) are NOT ON. It is as if they do not have any power.
Two giant potholes in the road. The City fixed potholes to the west on Tapp and to the east on Country Club, but neglected the intersection.
Streetlight was out last night. It’s prettty dark!
