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.
There is a yard sign in the right-of-way at the SE corner of N Rogers and W 10th.
On December 30, 2023, a camping trailer arrived on the property and appears to be occupied, potentially in violation of city codes 20.03.030 (g) Accessory Uses and Structures. (1) Generally (C) Prohibitions. and 20.04.060 (n) Use of Parking Areas. (5) Storage, Occupancy, or Similar Uses. While the parking and occupancy of the trailer itself raise concerns, my main concern lies with the overall condition of the property. Over the past few months, there has been a noticeable accumulation of debris on the driveway, in bushes, and throughout the yard. This includes items such as tires, biking equipment, and various other objects scattered about, which detract from the character and property values of the neighborhood. I understand that personal property management is an individual choice, but the current state of the property at 2603 S Bryan St significantly impacts the surrounding environment and creates a less-than-desirable atmosphere for neighbors. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could investigate this matter and take appropriate action.
There was a collision today between a car and a bus at the intersection of 11th and Diamond Streets. The car was unable to see around the large building at the southwest corner, and pulled out in front of a fast-moving bus. A similar thing happened several years ago between two passenger vehicles which resulted in a collision with the house on the southeast corner (see picture). With the new development at Moravec Way, this intersection is getting much more use over the past few years. I would appreciate if a traffic study could be conducted to determine if some kind of traffic calming, such as a speed hump, would be appropriate to install on the west side of this intersection.
"Grant Properties" have been putting up rental signs on ROW.
The ZBT Fraternity can be found through Google as being a fraternity house. They are on cease and desist as well as not able to operate in the neighborhood.
Vey large flashing screen/sign on top of their building. Totally visible as a flashing sign/screen from Matlock Heights neighborhood. Seems to be on all the time, so not just an event screen. Pollutes with flashing light into the treescape.
A lot of random junk, trash, and rundown vehicles scattered through driveway, lawn and side of property. There are also many piles of feces scattered through the lawn, contributing to the health concern of the unnecessary build up of trash and junk. Stray cats appear to be living in the junk and vehicles. Trash blows from this yard into neighboring properties and all of the junk creates a massive eyesore for surrounding homeowners. It appears the property owner also stores a trailer and additional vehicle in the street due to the inability to fit any more vehicles into the driveway. The negligence of this homeowner is creating an unhealthy and ugly problem for the entire neighborhood. Something needs to be done about this immediately.
There are two utility lights on either side of my property that are LEDs and they are so bright they shine in mine and my neighbors windows disrupting our sleep and other activities! They need to be changed to one of the amber dimmer street lights!
Kinser Pike road and sidewalks have been destroyed for a long time now after the construction at 17th and Kinser. These should have been repaired right after the gas line construction. Do bad this isn't the Eastside or IU as you all would've had it repaired the next day
