Does the City have jurisdiction over IU? The bricks on the bricks around the Sample Gates are so shiny that in the glare creates a hazard when traveling east (on bicycle) east into campus and also in the afternoons when traveling west. Last evening I crashed head-on into another bicyclist because I couldn't see him approaching. I have mentioned this to the Landscape Architect, but was told there is nothing that can be done to lessen the glare. Is that true?
Trash piled up front yard for the last week.
Broken and open windows on back and side of property.
Again, lawn is going to seed.
there is a lot of blood splattered on the east side curb of the Poplars Building on 7th and Dunn - next to the alley behind the Poplars, please clean it up.
For years I have problems with my neighbor's trash in my yard. His cans are on Habitat Street, his own private dump, despite a City Ordinance prohibiting it. He does not empty his trashcans, he does not cover them; animals take trash to nearby yards and other parts of City property. In the past, Wykoff was not helpful, and Mayor Kruzan was not interested, and the police had other priorities. Recently it has bounced around in City bureaucracy for months: HAND, the Street Department, back to HAND, over to Title VI, back to HAND, and back to the Street Department, which they will not enforce the Ordinance. Trash still appears in my yard. There must be organizational and management issues, but the results are the same: no solutions. The appearance is either incompetence or corruption. I am tired of the run-around; I have lost the use of my property and it's full value. I just want the cans moved back on his property, away from mine. If the cans are not a real problem, then they can not be a real problem on his own property. The next escalation goes to the Police Department, the Herald-Times, or the Courts.
Light allowing northbound 37 traffic to turn left is not working
I suggest posting "no turn on red" for west bound traffic turning onto Range Road. Because of the cement barrier and narrowness of the road I have twice had cars interfere with and almost run into me as I try to make a left turn onto 10th St. on the green light.
Turns onto 3rd street from Overhill Drive are very, very dangerous! It is basically a turn into a 5 lane road. I was going southbound on Overhill Drive making a left turn onto 3rd, but I was unable to see incoming traffic from eastbound 3rd street which was being blocked by cars stopped at the stoplight on westbound 3rd st. They frequently have to slow down to let me in and sometimes I have to swerve my car into the center lane to avoid an accident. The problem with that though is that sometimes westbound people on 3rd street wanting to turn left on Woodcrest Drive speed through the middle lane and almost crash into me while I am turning left onto 3rd street. It seems like the connection between Overhill Drive and 3rd street should be blocked off because there is no traffic light onto the 5 lane road which has high traffic, and due to the stoplight at 3rd/Woodcrest, all the stopped vehicles are blocking the view of oncoming traffic.
