closed: Can't Fix #206806

City Construction Projects:

Other: The new bicycle storage cubes are not benefiting residents and are creating two significant problems: Immediate Safety Hazard: The cubes are an attractive nuisance and severe fall risk to children. Preschoolers have been observed climbing and jumping on the units. This confirms the greater community need is a safe play area, not this storage solution. Unauthorized Misuse: The units are already being used as personal storage by non-residents (unhoused), leading to increased and unwelcome traffic into the residential courtyard. The project failed to consult residents on community needs. I request immediate action to address the safety hazard and restrict unauthorized access to these units.

Jeremy, sorry if you aren't an appropriate contact for this. I have no idea who would work on this, but HAND seemed like a better place to start. Thanks.
