Blocked Sidewalk

320 W 8th ST

Case Date:
10/3/2018

What is the deal with these electric scooters everywhere?? I realize they are fun and also help students (or, mostly students I have seen) get around, but they are literally LITTERING the streets. In one block on my walk to work, there were five scooters parked. I rode my bike to work this afternoon and there were five scooters parked in front of the Indiana Ave. Starbucks, and I had to move two of them to use the bike rack because they were completely blocking the rack. I have seen them abandoned everywhere, including on the trail around Bryan Park. Is the business to put them out going around to collect them at any point? If so, how often are they collecting them? Does the city have rules on these things? Are we supposed to share sidewalks with electric scooters? I am all for alternative transportation, and love the PACE bike program, but these scooters seem to be out of control.

Scooters, Bike-share and Related Issues

Case Date:

The new scooters are a bad idea. They are everywhere and haphazardly parked on sidewalks, entrances, etc. More concerning is the of the scooters use on public streets, especially at night. They are much slower and difficult to see. What a terrible idea by the city. It is just a matter of time that I think someone will get hurt. Please reconsider allowing these scooters, or at least limit the use and scope of these scooters.

N Forrest Ave between E Cottage Grove Ave and E 11th. Multiple cars parked here on a daily basis where it says no parking. This is supposed to be a two lane road, but is not safely wide enough for traffic going both directions with cars parked here, and there is no where to move out of the way if two cars are traveling opposite directions on this road, causing a traffic hazard.

Abandoned Vehicle

Case Date:
10/2/2018

I live at 1502 W 12th Street and there is a silver Pontiac Grand Prix out front that belongs to the people who lived at my address before me, I was told I needed to contact the city to have it removed, it appears to have been abandoned. It's taking up too much space and my wife's and my own family don't have anywhere to park when they come visit. Thank you.
