There has been excessive growth of old tires at 828 W Wylie. They are a prime breeding ground for mosquitoes and the health hazards they spread. Please help the west side by doing what you can to get them to clean this mess up.
A ton of potholes leading to the poorly maintained alley. The drop off going into/ out of the alley is starting to cause damage to low riding cars. Please repair and not just patch the street and alley please. This is NOT safe for cyclists and multiple families live here with young kids and would like a safe road.
Trash in front of Wheeler Mission.
Multiple utility boxes in Woodhaven and all down Leonard Springs to the apartments are damaged destroyed open bare wire
Snedegar has unprotected open trenches on both the east and west sides of the sidewalks. No signs or barricades
Does the fountain as City Hall Plaza ever flow? I took those photos Monday evening. The drinking fountain that I reported last month hasn't been fixed yet. Related?
The Shalom driveway is CITY PROPERTY and there is a sinkhole very close to the gas meter. My prior report was closed all ready. Does that mean someone has been out and determined that it is not a safety issue? Thank you.
220 W 14th St. This is a repeat of #212155. I need you to understand the methodology behind this photograph. I held my phone pointing directly ahead of me, with both of my feet squarely on the sidewalk (at the edge of the sidewalk). My phone was directly in front of my face. The branch directly in the center of the photo is exactly where my eyes would be if i had continued to walk forwards. Practically, this is a genuine problem because I really do walk along the edge of the sidewalk so that i can walk 2- or 3-abreast with my family. It's a safety problem because if I do not see the branch then it will hit my eye, as has already happened at this location! It's an inconvenience because it is a point where the sidewalk narrows from 5ft to effectively 4ft. Pedestrians are forced to reconfigure their groups at these narrowings. It costs us time and energy and makes conversing difficult. I'm not sure what enforcement authority you're acting under but it's a legal problem as well, for example BMC 12.24.040 requires a clear distance of 8ft above sidewalks. FWIW, I'm asking for 6ft. The transportation plan also weighs in on this, Table 5 Pedestrian Zone Design Parameters "Clear space for all pedestrian travel, should be clear of any and all fixed obstacles." I didn't think it was necessary to be so explicit but they were -- "any and all" definitely includes branches that extend 6 inches into your eye sockets. The specific undesirability of having fixed obstacles extending over the sidewalk exactly at eye height *for any distance* has been explicitly acknowledged and i can't believe i'm trying to point this out today. Anyways i really do appreciate that this has seen already more enforcement action than the whole city put together before about 2022 but if this is what compliance looks like then we have a problem.

Hello! We would love to start using the number 5 bus more often, but the closest bus stop feels a bit dangerous. It only has a sign; no concrete pad or bus stop bench area. Being on the south side of the street with no sidewalk area by it, cars go incredibly fast by us while we are waiting. This photo from today shows that it isn’t well kept; not mowed often and in the winter, often is piled up with snow. We would like to request improvements to this bus stop so we (and others) can use it more regularly and feel safer. Thank you.
