Common area between my house and woods and common cut thru area to get to walking path has 2 foot weeds. Has not been mowed this entire season. Rodents think it’s their playground. Embarrassing.

Cup and Kettle- No store front currently online sales only. I bought gift cards to help with scaffolding and helping her store and she will no longer will take them. Bad business practice and customer service. Cup and Kettle is preparing her tea at her residence and only online sales. Would like this reported for bad business practices and health and safety issue.

The stop sign at the intersection of S Ramsey Dr is significantly obstructed by tree branches and foliage. Drivers approaching the intersection have limited visibility of the stop sign, creating a potential traffic safety hazard. Photos are attached. Please inspect and trim the tree as needed to restore clear visibility of the traffic signs.

This house has so much garbage and debris on their porch and property it seems dangerous. Google map this location and the picture shows the issue (and it's even worse now). Recently the garage roof has caved in and nothing has been done about it. There are sharp objects, a gas tank in the yard, and junk everywhere. Is there anything that can be done to clan up the situation? Thank you.

Trash was not taken to the street for three weeks (two pickups) and then garbage was put in their recycling bin and rejected by recycling. The recycling bin with potentially 3+ week old trash is still at the road today and the smell is noticeable from across the street.

Property sold on May 11, 2026 and has not been attended to since that time. Lawn is excessively high. This in a neighborhood where all other neighbors mow regularly and take pride in the appearance of their yards. New owner needs to step up and take care of the property!

There is a utility pole at this location and there are always bags of (presumably) dog poop right by it. It seems like they pile up for a bit and then get cleared away, so I’m guessing someone is just staging their dog poop here before transferring it to an actual trashcan. It’s gross and I wish someone could catch whoever is doing this. The property at 2514 has a dog. Thank you.

Can the speed limit be reduced near the entrance of Switchyard Park on S. Rogers Street? This is an entrance to the city's largest park and there will be a pedestrian crossing built that will also cross S. Rogers Street, to the park entrance. Currently, the speed is 30 mph, which will be too fast for a pedestrian crossing and the current busy park entrance. Per City Ordinance 18-09, the speed is reduced on Winslow Rd around Allendale Dr. to accommodate for the pedestrian crossing that is near a city park.
Other examples of reduced speed near park entrances includes (but not limited to): S. Highland Ave near Winslow Sports Complex and E. Morningside Dr. near Park Ridge East Park.
