Parks department tree was cut back last summer by the Street Dept. It was left with broken branches that now stick out into the ROW and is the eyesore of the neighborhood and not healthy for the tree. Please forward this request to Haskell. Thank you!
Street tree is dead. Please replace.
For shade for Shakespeare in the park (and other concerts) it would be helpful to plant shade trees closer to the patio that can shade those on the hill.

Right hand turn lane from Gifford onto curry. Cars are stopping for curry red light after turning right onto Curry from Gifford, forcing the turn lane traffic to stop on the tracks. There needs to be a sign preventing the turn lane from stopping at the intersecting red light. The same can be applied for traffic heading south on curry, crossing the tracks. Traffic will try and beat the red light and get stopped at the 3rd stoplight, completely blocking Gifford right hand turn lane from going anywhere when they get the green light.
Us residents in Broadview are having more and more issues with this homeless camp behind the IMI concrete plant. There is trash everywhere, shopping carts left in the street, people yelling at all hours, people burning trash every day, people trespassing, and now fights are breaking out. The groups that have been there lately are more aggressive and it’s starting to get out of control. Why the city is condoning this as the spot to throw the homeless is beyond ridiculous and why is there no police presence? My neighbors called the cops last night about the fight that broke out and I don’t remember seeing anyone show up. Why is this camo being allowed? Why is it not being monitored with a higher police presence? Why are we the ones that have to deal with this mess? And why is this being allowed so close to a neighborhood that is now making everything unsafe in this area? Please, do better than this. It has gotten way out of control.
Regarding the work on the railroad bridge on north Adam street. This evening, a car came south through the construction area under the bridge. The driver got out and moved the barricade on the south end of the construction area just enough to pass and drove through headed south. Later, since that barrier was moved, a car went through that construction area headed north. It seems they are going under the bridge on the west side since there are supports under the east side, where the work is being done. I believe a third car drove into the constriction area then turned around before going under the bridge. These occurrences were between 9:25 pm and midnight.
