This house was sold and purchased by new owners in 2016. Since then the number of vehicles parked on the street has grown to as many as 7 over time. For the last 8 months, one of the vehicles has had 2 flat tires and has not moved. There have been many times (especially during snowy winter days) where the street becomes hard to navigate especially with two way traffic. Is there any ordinance that recommends the number of cars one can park in front of their house? Can an abandoned car remain on the streets for months on end? Perhaps the number of cars is related to the number of families residing at this home; is there a limit to the number of families that may be co-housing? How can this be resolved? Aside from the driving safety issues, it is a visual blight on our neighborhood and a very unfortunate welcome to our lovely neighborhood.
Large tree had a break last Friday (3/12). Two branches fell into the street. Sharifs had to be called to help remove some of the larger pieces. Was told it is close enough to the road that I could get some assistance with removal cost.
this issue was not resolved even though the case was closed

There is a house on Sheridan between Maxwell and Jordan on the north/west side of the street that has giant pavers sitting on the roadway in front of the house. They are just right on the pavement, obstructing the road. These are a danger to pedestrians, cyclists, children, and vehicles. Can someone go take a look and understand why there are big pavers on the road surface?
