I’m glad I was not in a wheelchair or pushing a stroller when I encountered this today.

A large branch broke off a city tree (between the sidewalk and street) during the last wind storm. I trimmed off the branch and cut it up into smaller pieces but the tree requires attention where it cracked.
This house has been emptied for at least four years. There are signs of a camp developing in the backside. This is a blight issue. There has been very little yard maintenance performed over the last several years. It is difficult to find ownership of this place to determine who is responsible for the property.
Sidewalk in need of repair
I contacted the property manager and she said that this light could not be shielded or dimmed or adjusted for "safety". I would like to see if this is something that would constitute a light violation for the city so that it could be adjusted. I made a previous request about this light due to it shining into our bedroom window after a tree was cut down which had been blocking much of the light. Is there something that could be done?
When the ADA sidewalk grates were installed along Cottage Grove, the contractor damaged the street around all the corners. Recently, the City filled in with asphalt some of that damage, but whoever did that neglected to fill in the SW and NE corners of the Washington/CG intersection. Those hazards still remain.
One side of the eastbound traffic light is out. The right one works, just not the left.
Overgrown yard, impeding movement on the sidewalk.
I understand that with construction roads will be uneven for a time, but the roads on 17th and Arlington have been uneven and rough for awhile. It's been weeks and I go up and that road multiple times a day. The roads are so rough that I'm afraid that it is going to pop one of my tires as well as I'm going to need a front end alignment. If they are going to have the roads torn up for a long period of time, could they put some steel plates down so it doesn't cause damage to vehicles? Thank you.
