Excessive Growth

1012 S Ballantine RD

Case Date:
5/25/2019

Hello, I cannot find a place on this website to enter a report of dead trees on public property. Please forward this to the right office: I'm concerned about dead trees that may be hazardous to cars or people, located in the forested public right-of-way (formally known as Davis St.) beside my house: at the dead end of the 1000 block of S. Ballantine. Can the city cut down some of these trees before they're blown onto cars or the street? Additionally, we have a huge dead tree between our house (1033 S. Ballantine) and the home behind us on Highland Ave. It abuts power lines, so I assume that this is either public property or a utility easement. I have tried (off and on) for a year to get Duke to remove it. No action. Can the city either remove this tree or persuade Duke to do so before it takes down all the wires that serve both Highland and Ballantine homes on this block? Thank you.

Drainage or Runoff

807 S Park AVE

Case Date:
3/22/2017

Ms Dwyer contacted me last week and I met her at her house this morning. She is concerned about a sinkhole forming in her yard again and the amount of water that ponds on the south side of her house. This is a historical problem. We made some storm improvements in the alley east of her last year and hoped that would help solve some of her problems but she still has issues and would like to know what she can do. I told her I have asked our crews to video the storm sewer that runs along her yard to make sure the pipe is sound. I told her I would also check our sanitary sewer videos to make sure the sanitary sewer is sound. I explained I would be out of the office for about a week and would get back with her in a couple weeks to let her know what we have found.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

910 S Highland AVE

Case Date:
11/20/2014

(Not really "street repair" but I couldn't find the right category): The eastbound Stop sign on Maxwell @ Highland, in Elm Heights, is OFTEN ignored. I have seen cars race right through it without even the pretense of slowing down. On foot, I have jumped out behind the car as it sped on, waving my hands and shouting "STOP SIGN!!", and once a driver waved an acknowledgment. Another time, driving north on Highland, I turned and followed the offender, honking and blinking my lights hoping s/he would notice that someone had noticed and be alert next time. The Stop sign is quite visible, not obscured by overhanging trees, so I am stumped. But I wonder if it could be moved closer to the road, enlarged, painted (the post too) a more neon/catchy red, and/or moved to the CENTER of the intersection (tricky for the snowplows, I know), and/or a "Stop-sign alert" sign added well before, or maybe it could be removed altogether with appropriate alerts posted for the north/south drivers, which might be safer than assuming people will stop. This is a potentially lethal situation for drivers, bikers, and walkers in a very pedestrian-heavy neighborhood. Thanks.
