Tree branch fell across road. It’s broken up but tricky to get around.
When W 6th St was repaved last year they didn't bring all the sewer access covers ("manholes") up to the level of the new pavement. The one in front of the driveway to the Fairview Methodist Church is especially bad. It could cause a bicycle to wreck. It nearly caused me to get hit by a car when I was avoiding it. There are a couple of others (one square and another round) in the westbound lane that are also bad, but they are often covered by parked cars. (I put the dot on your map where the problem is, but the address is actually 600 W 6th since it's on the north side of the street.)
This resident grills/meat smokes all day, almost every single day. The smoke fills the surrounding neighborhood blocks, and it smells like a fire constantly. I cannot open my windows or be outside at my home because of the poor air quality and its affects on my health. It causes respiratory issues and coughing fits amongst other things. The resident walks away from the grill while it's operating. He digs through the BHA dumpsters and uses the BHA dumpsters to dispose of his trash. Can you please direct me to local ordinances of air quality pollution in residential areas, and investigate the possibility that this is a commercial use of a grill/smoker in a residential area? I find the frequency and duration of his grilling is so improbable for personal residential use. It was like this last year as well: grilling all day every day with smoke filling the neighborhood and inability to use the outside areas of my home.
There is a light pole directly across from Sushi Bar that has been out or malfunctioning for some time now. I recently submitted a report through Duke's website but was informed that the light was "removed from Duke accounts in 2023" and that they therefore lack jurisdiction to act. Pole #768017. Coordinates are 39°10'18.1"N 86°30'12.1"W
Rainwater drain just west of this address is blocked with gravel and yard waste debris.
2 large potholes on major car/bike thoroughfare. On 7th at a curve on a hill!

The sewer drain keeps getting clogged. I shoveled it out yesterday during the heavy rain but it keeps getting clogged with street debris. I'm worried it will get clogged again this afternoon and I won't be home to help with it.
