Blocked Street
517 E Kirkwood AVE
- Case Date:
- 1/20/2024
CONSTANT double parked cars with flashers on throughout the day and evening from Chipotle to Lennies. Something needs to be done. Ticketing drivers as this forces driving in the opposite lane and makes parking at the local restaurants impossible. Cars remain parked in the street blocking traffic for 15-30 minutes throughout the day and evening. This is hurting local businesses.
Water Utility Problems
409 E University ST

During some construction of some sort, dealing with the power lines in the alley to the left of my house, the case must have been brittle and they broke the lid to the water mane. They put an orange traffic cone over the hole, but it did not help anything. Due to it being open to the elements. My water mane froze. Im not sure if there is anything that can be done. But if someone could come by, replace the cover, and fix the water issue, it would be very helpful. Due to this issue, we have no running water.

There's a nasty pothole in the center of Moravec Way, just south of the intersection with the BLine Trail. It would be great if it could be filled with gravel or repaired.

See case #186719. Trash is still there a week later (stuffed in a cardboard box, and still easily accessible by rodents), and the furniture remains where it has been in the front "yard" for the last five months.
Sidewalk Requests
1609 S Rogers ST
- Case Date:
- 1/18/2024
I would love to see a proper crosswalk and sidewalks added at all sides of the Rogers and Rockport intersection. I would also like to request a completed sidewalk added to the east side of Rogers between Rockport and the Switchyard Park entrance. Families from Rockport Hills and the surrounding neighborhoods often walk over to Switchyard Park and I personally have had and witnessed numerous close calls attempting to cross Rogers to enter Switchyard Park on foot. It would be great to have some sort of crosswalk added at the Switchyard entrance to aid those on foot trying to cross Rogers and enter the park. During larger events when the park parking lot fills up, there is overflow parking in the field in front of Catalent. Then a huge flow of people are forced to wait for traffic in order to essentially jaywalk into the park. It seems to me that some infrastructure improvements are needed for this area of Rogers St. to facilitate the main entrance to one of the largest parks in the city. Finally, I think it would be great to have some sort of high retaining wall built around the massive eye-sore electrical transfer station directly across from the park entrance (similar to the one built right next to the Upland Woodshop). Thank you for your time and consideration!

House has four very bright floodlights that shine horizontally away from the house in back, resulting in the three houses on the south side of 11th Street being drenched in glare all night long. Please ask them to at least shade the lights or reorient them so that they only illuminate their property and don't ruin the night-time for everyone else in the neighborhood.

Something changed in the programming or timing of this light in the past week. I noticed maybe Friday of last week that the light on Rogers was flashing yellow and someone was at the control box. Now, the light sits on red for a long time on Rogers. This week, traffic headed south on Rogers around 5pm has been backed up like never before. The backup extends from Rockport north to Grimes at a minimum. This is a huge problem and needs to be fixed back to its normal operation that kept traffic moving on Rogers.

I've noticed all this week that there seems to have been some changes to the timing of the stoplight at the corner of Rogers and Rockport. This has caused 5pm traffic to log jam all the way down Rogers, through the Grimes and Rogers intersection, even backing up to Allen St. or Dixie St. at times. People at the Rogers and Grimes light heading south then attempt to go around the jam by turning left on Rogers onto Grimes. This causes Grimes to back up as well creating further problems at the Grimes and Rogers intersection. The Rogers and Rockport light used to allow traffic to flow without issue, but with the recent change, only 3-5 cars are let through at a time before it's red again. It's turned my 10 minute commute home into a 40-45 minute nightmare. Please help!
