The HVAC by the north entrance to the County side of Showers was giving off an almost Ozone like smell yesterday evening as I was leaving. Just wanted to bring it to your attention as I know that unit has had some issues recently.
Multiple sidewalks blocked and impassable with snow
There was a pass over plow at the apartment complex. This has lead to cars being completely blocked in by packs of snow because the snow was not moved to one area. Resident received an email on Monday stating the streets would be plowed again and the sidewalks would be shoveled the next day. And only emergency vehicles were allowed to enter the complex. However, none of these things happened. Despite the staff and facilities living on premise and being at work in their offices. They essentially sent out an email stating everyone is trapped in their apartments and have not done anything since then. I understand this probably more of an apartment complex issue, but they are not listening to complaints from people. If you travel to Basswood to see the dangerous conditions, or call them, I'm sure that would be enough for them to take action.
The sidewalk northeast of Washington St and Smith Ave intersection hasn't been plowed. It's adjacent to Parks & Rec property, the Allison-Jukebox Community Center. They cleared by the playground but I think they forgot this is also Parks property. Thanks!
Snow has not been cleared from the mixed-use path along South Rogers. Thank you for all you do.
Sidewalk on the south side of 3rd street between College Ave and the B-line is still covered in snow. It's adjacent to the convention center, 302 S College Ave. The photo shows where pedestrians have already been walking in the deep snow. The landowner needs to be fined for chronic non-compliance. In past years, the only way this sidewalk has been cleared is when City Council members brought it up in public, but ensuring compliance is actually the job of staff, not electeds. Chronic non-compliance requires dogged enforcement!! Thanks!
The owner of the property that faces onto the west side of Madison St just north of the train bridge (property address 400 W 13th St) has not cleared their sidewalks. In fact, they've never cleared their sidewalks in years and years. The property owner is the city. This property and the bridge are the two standouts that prevent a contiguous sidewalk from 17th to 11th along the Madison-Rogers corridor. Please fine the landowner for this chronic non-compliance, and also get a work crew out there pronto. Thanks!
Between 811 and 815 N Jackson, the sidewalk across the alley is . . . gone?? There's just a grassy gap there now. It's surely the city's responsibility to replace it since it across the alley.
Between 925 and 927 W Jackson, there's a sidewalk across the alley that's made of asphalt or something. It's down at a different level from the surrounding sidewalk and is a tripping hazard. Because it's across the alley, it's the city's responsibility to repair.
The bit of sidewalk across the alley is made of bricks that are at a significantly lower level than the surrounding sidewalk and therefore is a tripping hazard. Because it's in front of an alley, I suppose it's the city's responsibility to upgrade the bit to something safer, like has been done on the opposite side of the street.
