My wife and I just moved into a new house at 411 E Wilson St, between Palmer and Dunn. We need street signs installed at the corner of Wilson and Dunn and Wilson and Palmer as soon as possible, as no one can find our house.
A crosswalk with lights was put in on Henderson (near Brenda Lane & Templeton Elem School) some time ago, but the lights on the sign are too subtle for motorists to notice. At least once per week I have to put my arm out into the crosswalk to get a motorists attention to stop. The signs are around 10 feet off the ground--well above the eye level of motorists; and the lights on the vertices of the pentagonal sign are tiny and give off insufficient light. You need lights that are impossible to miss and at eye level. The city has lights just like this on Washington at E Smith Ave (beside the Allison-Jukebox Center). They are at eye level and you can see them from three blocks away.
On the southeast corner of Wilson St. & Lincoln St., the curb is partially painted yellow, but the paint does not extend all the way to the corner. Because of this, there is a vehicle that regularly parks right on the corner. This makes it nearly impossible to check for oncoming northbound traffic on Lincoln St. when you are traveling westbound on Wilson St. I would like to request that the city paint the curb yellow all the way to the corner and possibly add appropriate signage. Thank you.
The pavement on Park, just south of the intersection with Wilson, is crumbling. There are several areas with no pavement at all, just gravel.
I live at 1401 S. Walnut Street, and there is a street light at the end of our driveway (on Wilson Street). It has been out for a while, and we would love to get it replaced, as we've had two incidences of vandalism on the driveway in the past few months. Thank you!
Light out at S. Walnut (east side) and Allen St.

The east side of South Dunn Street between East Dodds Street and East Wylie Street is crumbling and breaking apart. The photo doesn't show this very well, but the rut running along the side of the street is fairly deep and could easily damage a car tire or rim. The asphalt looks like a heavy truck passed over it and broke it up.
