At corner of S Morton and W Howe streets the shrubbery growth continues up to the street curb - which both blocks the sidewalk access along Morton as well as creates a blind spot for any traffic turning from Howe onto Morton. I was nearly hit by a FedEx truck yesterday because of the blocked view while at that corner.
Syringe and trash
two large bags of clothes and trash there on walk, thx
Mills pool has 19 chairs TOTAL. This feels inequitable compared to Bryan Park. Given the proximity to low income housing, it feels important to give this pool a little more love instead of having starkly different offerings than BP.
I believe the honeylocust in the parkway in front of my house is dead. It’s Site ID 35450.
People speed out of RCA Park (and this has happened after criminal activity as well), so can traffic calming devices such as speed bumps please be considered?

Refer to cases #186916, #188213, and #188214. Someone ended up putting a rubber stopper in the hole at the base of the dumpster, which temporarily prevented the rats from entering it. However, rubber is a delicacy for rats (which it seems garbage-oriented people should well know) and it was soon devoured. Now the problem is back full-force, with rats running in and out of the dumpster and scurrying around the parking lot. The drain-hole is threaded on the inside, implying that the manufacturer of the dumpster had in mind (and likely supplies) a metal screw-type insert that will be rat-proof. Please ask the company to install the correct type of fitting so that this problem is permanently fixed.

On my way to work this morning I was almost hit by a vehicle that did not stop at the stop sign by the Boys and Girls Club on W 12th St. They drove right through the sign. I was able to get the vehicle's license plate, but I'm not sure if that should be included in this, or if I should provide that to someone if I am contacted. After this incident, I feel like a police presence should be at this stop sign in the morning. There are kids and adults that are constantly walking around this area, and I do not want anyone to get hit because someone is blowing through stop signs.
