The trees block the sidewalk entirely and I have to walk in the bike lane to get across.
The trees block the sidewalk entirely and I have to walk in the bike lane to get across.
Plants along sidewalk have grown out enough to impede pedestrians, and they keep growing. Could be responsibility of 713 E. Cottage Grove, or maybe both.
I am writing to follow up on my concerns regarding the ongoing construction of the new house across from 1422 North Hopewell Street. As you know, North Hopewell Street is quite narrow and a dead end. For the past year, construction workers have frequently blocked the road, making it difficult for residents to enter or leave. The street is only wide enough for one vehicle, yet construction personnel routinely park directly in the middle of the road or park vehicles on both sides. This has even caused issues for the trash collection services. This has become a daily problem, often causing delays that have made me late for work as I have to wait for vehicles to be moved. Unfortunately, it seems that there is often a lack of consideration or urgency in resolving these obstructions. Furthermore, the property has already hosted several gatherings with insufficient parking, which has further increased the congestion on the street. Thank you for your time and attention to this persistent issue.
Sidewalk not usable due to vegetation
This evergreen shrub (and the grapevines growing within) is hanging very low over the sidewalk so most pedestrians have to duck or walk around, which can be dangerous on the busy street. Its even worse when raining and the shrub is weighed down by the water.
The sidewalk from S Lakespur Ln. to Mother Hubbard’s is getting very over gown and muddy making it hard to walk on. There’s a lot of honey suckle and even poison ivy growing into the walking area.
Vegetation growing over sidewalk
Vegetation growing over sidewalk
There is a row of some type of plant right between the road and sidewalk at the top of the hill. It is blocking the ability to see cars coming up over the hill. It’s very hard to pull out left off of Howe onto Roger’s going north because of this.
Fiber optic install hole opened up at NW corner 900 E Grimes Ln & 1200 S Woodlawn St. It's at least 1.5 foot deep.
