Potholes, Other Street Repair

401 S Woodlawn AVE

Case Date:
7/10/2024

This one in the attached photo is on S. Woodlawn Ave between Atwater Ave and E Hunter Ave. This is extremely deep and will definitely cause any cyclists or motorcyclists to fall. There are wider but shallower potholes just one block south of this section on S. Woodlawn. It would be great to get those fixed at the same time.

Line of Sight

401 S Woodlawn AVE

Case Date:

Pulling out of this alley either direction onto Woodlawn is a hazard, especially for pedestrians and bicyclists. To the right (on Subway/apartment bldg. side) is shrubbery that completely blocks the view of the sidewalk and street. Approaching it from the alley, we can't see if any vehicles or pedestrians are approaching from the north, traveling south. To the left of the alley is a rental house that has a shrub or tree or some other type of greenery that hangs far enough forward that we can't see what's approaching from the south, traveling north. We must ease our vehicles out into the street in order to see what's coming on Woodlawn in either direction. If we're turning right (to head north) when we ease out into the street for visibility, when we see that it's clear to turn onto Woodlawn it forces the front half of the vehicle to swing into the southbound lane. The shrub to the right of the alley (Subway building) needs to be trimmed drastically or removed altogether for safety's sake since the view of pedestrians and vehicle/bicycle traffic is completely blocked. And the tree/bush on the other side of the rental house to the left needs to be trimmed back enough for visibility. This alley is used daily by many. It contains IU parking spaces and parking for residential rental property, and U.S. Mail vehicles travel it daily for delivery. A colleague reported this to the city last year and nothing came of it.

Unsafe Buildings

401 S Washington ST

Case Date:
12/1/2022

Smoke detectors non working beeping over a week, one has been hanging from my son room ceiling, I have told staff in regards of being freightened it will fall on him also have reported it to them in writing. The microwave light has been out as well as two in my bathroom in which I've asked them to reach several times and I am disabled with hip replacements so it isn't a possibility for me to do so. Stairway has harmful items blocking the door. Stairway has harmful items such as Ziploc bag next to a needle appearing to not have a covering so the pointy tip side is visibly out and I notified staff in case a child or anyone incidentally gets hurt or stabbed with it. Window screen appears to have huge slit in it Heat not working all winter and fall in which I personally purchased a small portable heater. All detectors beeps but they do not assist me to replace making me very concerned for my safety.

Water Quality

401 S Washington ST

Case Date:

Water smells like dirt. Literally like soil. It’s been this way for at least a week, and nothing has made it better. I’ve tried bleach in the drains, thinking it was the pipes.

Caller from The Project School reported that the lights at the crosswalk at the intersection of Smith & Washington aren't working. The lights don't flash to allow pedestrians (their students) to cross. Thanks for looking into this.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

401 S Washington ST

Case Date:
6/11/2018

Washington Street just south of Smith where there was construction last summer, the street still needs to be fixed. Last fall you said it was too cold for asphalt repair. It's been warm enough for a while now. It's especially bad in the bike lane.

Case Date:

There is a huge sign announcing a future building project in this site. The sign obscures vision between northbound cars and pedestrian traffic. There is an elementary school right next to this intersection. An effort should be made to reduce added risk here.

Traffic Signals

401 S Walnut ST

Case Date:
1/7/2016

Signal at Smith Ave and Walnut is not synchronized with 2nd & 3rd Sts. You promised that when you put another signal on Walnut for parents dropping off kids at Project School that it would not cause problems with traffic flow and would be synched with rest of Walnut St. But it is NOT. This has been bugging me for several months. I don't often drive north on Walnut in this area, but when I do, this light is NEVER synched. Please fix this for better traffic flow.
