Audible traffic signals are not working at each corner of Union and 10th Street. This has been called in and they are still not working. There are several blind students crossing that intersection and it is extremely important these are fixed soon.
WRT #205296 - I have reported this in the past. Also, the city knows when students are moving in and out in August. Instead of leaving the heaps of trash by the ignorant or unwilling offenders (not asking for coddling), prepare the team for the excess and be ready with extra pickups, on the spot fines, knocking on doors to hand out the rules for example, to deal with this very predictable and temporary disturbance in the system.
City parcel on w Cottage Grove is overgrown and has been reported several times it's covering the sidewalk and it's the only sidewalk on the street that kids walking to school use. The weeds are also growing along the curb .
The recycle crew emptied only half of our recycle bin this morning and left behind broken glass from a bottle (which they evidently had fumbled) on the foot of our driveway and into street. I cleaned the mess up as best I could. They need to be held accountable about this. Please let me know what action is taken.
To Rhea Carter: Re Case #205383: my address is 1315 Sheridan--I should have included it yesterday. BTW, your message came from a "noreply" address so I couldn't reply directly.
Switchyard Park. Please start ticketing cars taking two spaces. At events like Food Truck Friday.
Unkempt lawn at the former Arby’s (?) at 535 S Walnut Street.
The city alley along the north side of our home on 1006 South Grant Street, has a few large, deep potholes. They need to be filled in, new gravel to level with rest of alley. These potholes were created by utility trucks when each did some work in the spring. These heavy trucks (city tree trim, utility repair, cable repair, etc.) park to repair at the poles and their continued heavy weight created deep holes. Driving down the alley (which daily serves 5-6 drivers in three adjacent homes) has become very challenging. One can't veer easily to the side due to alley being narrow - and no one wants damage to our cars from suddenly hitting potholes! This gets exacerbated in rainy, muddy weather when you can't easily see potholes. Thank you for your attention.
