The gate pin and hinge is made so you can't swing through. The pin is almost out and it won't fit back in. Needs repaired.
There is water that smells like sewage bubbling up out of the drainage pipes. I've seen it literally bubbling up as if under pressure so I believe it comes from some kind of underground pipe but I can't be sure. The area is always wet as a result and smells.
Three of the four LED crosswalk lights are out along N. College. I reported these months ago.
Bobby's Colorado Steakhouse has a banner on site without a permit.
What is going on here? A half-deconstructed building that is a danger to all who seek shelter on this property and a general eyesore. Are you aware that the 8’ basement is nearly full of water. Not a very safe place to bathe…I believe the city planning department (or the city in conjunction with the county) has the ability to condemn this structure and cause the cleanup of this site. Current owner: Mike Ross of Wow Food Group. Please contact him and ask him to either repair the building or secure the facility to prevent loss of life.
There is significant debris – sand and gravel – strewn across the bicycle lane in several places on North College Avenue. The debris has been there for MONTHS. The debris is very hazardous to bicyclists, especially because it is so thick and extensive. Bicyclists avoiding the debris or sliding on the debris could be struck and killed by motor vehicles – especially given that the City utterly fails to enforce the speed limit, which means that drivers have less time to react. The area with these piles of debris extends for almost the entire length of Miller Showers Park.
While talking to Mr. Hagemeyer about a zoning issue, he mentioned that several windows in the building at 1633 W 8th have been broken over the past several months, most recently within the last week or two. He didn't report it but if something could be done, he would appreciate it. Someone may just want to give him a call.
