This area does not have a left turn lane and I've been in multiple instances where the traffic has been backed up to the light because people are waiting to turn left. It seems when there are events or something at the Warehouse or Mill, traffic gets really bad. Any way to add a turn lane or remove the ability to turn left?

Coming from Woodlawn, heading towards the intersection with Hawthorne and Ballantine, there are several willow (?) trees that have such low-hanging branches that they hit pedestrians and cyclists in the face.

This is an all-way stop with marked stop signs and crosswalks. Unfortunately, many drivers (mostly on Winslow going East or West) do not stop at all. And there are quite a few that don't even slow down if they presume no vehicles are close enough to hit them for speeding through unabated. A few anemic attempts to place police near the intersection at haphazard intervals hasn't really had a beneficial impact. This intersection is very busy and is a frequent crossing for pedestrians and cyclists along with school children. I have seen other communities that have purchased solar powered flashing stop signs that significantly increase attention to the sign. Or, to monitor the scope of the issue, and maybe levy some tickets, can one of the mobile police observation hubs (I see them at the Seminary Square Kroger parking lot) be placed at the intersection. I don't ever feel safe coming any direction in or out of my own neighborhood. With all of the out of town students and faculty returning soon, the problem isn't going to get any better. This has been a pervasive issue for the roughly 8 years I've lived in this neighborhood.

Cars always parked alongside the bus stop where the wheelchair ramp is bus turning off of West 15th can often not see me over SUVs and trucks parked along there I believe the city ordinances no parking but cars continue to park there because there is no sign or curb painted with enough room for the bus to pull over to the right almost missed the bus to work because I am small and cars were blocking as usual and I feel unsafe walking between cars to run out into the road and wave down the bus. A person in a wheelchair can certainly not be seen and would have difficulty Wheeling out into the street to the bus because there is not room for the bus to pull over and lower the lift on to the ramp attaching the road to the sidewalk have called City police for towing multiple times police drive close by look over and then drive away doing nothing

Hi. This area of Maxwell lane needs to be built up a bit higher to help rainwater drain off into the grass. This spot retains water for many days after even a moderate rain. People like to park on the grass which is fair since it’s on the city’s right of way, but it looks bad, splashes pedestrians and bicycles and I think could be improved with a minimal amount of work. The edge of the road just needs a bit of building up so water drains properly. Thanks. Fred Pavalko

Stephen was asking about the city's response to Malibou house as he is a resident of the street on which one of their houses is located and expressed that he is already dealing with the effects of slummy properties, and this is making it much more difficult to deal with. He complained about noise, traffic, and the overall parking nightmare that has become of his culdesac.

It’s was my understanding with the Malibu House and Jeff Jones that several houses on Chris lane had lost renting privileges . I still see the Malibu house is open and has renters . I thought all this ended June 1?
Has something changed ?

Great news! There is high demand for bicycle parking near Bryan Park pool.
Sad news: There is no overflow bicycle parking near Bryan Park pool.
Could overflow bicycle parking at this location be added to a wish list for next year?
