Citizen says City has shown poor planning by closing off College Ave right when all the students have come back, and when 4th street is also closed for a project. Why couldn't this have been done earlier in the summer when traffic wasn't so bad? College is one of the busiest streets in town and this should have been anticipated and planned better. Note: This is FYI only, citizen did not want a response.
Steve does not understand why contruction projects around campus and the kirkwood area begin exactly when the students return to school. Why don't they start in the summer when there is much less traffic?
After traffic calming device was installed at the corner of 3rd and Rogers, sidewalk had to be realigned. Realigning meant tree had to be dug up and the lawn in this area was never fixed. See letter
Ms. Costley owns the above rental property. Wants to know if the area between the street and lawn where recent work was done will be seeded and strawed. Utilities says this work was on storm sewers in conjunction with Hillside work.
Noticed that City has blocked off the road through the medical center/COTA which was acting as an alternate route around the Tapp Road work. State is working on 37 exits for Fullerton Pike and Rockport Road and has them down to one lane. This is creating a very dangerous situation since Rockport is the official Tapp Road detour. Someone should look at this and open the road through the medical center or see if something else can be done before someone is killed.
Citizen is manager of Jiffy Treet. Says sidewalk in front of business is very bad and several older people have almost tripped. Did not realize property owner is responsible....he rents from Claire Young, 812-597-5711. JA told him we'd have Street check it out (Tom Goldman).
Citizen objects that Utilities will only repave area torn up for water main installation. Says the work has damaged the whole street and it needs repaving. Says the front of her property has been damaged by storage & removal of gravel, etc. Wants her lawn repaired. Has spoken with Doug Jones who said Mike Farmer would call her. Has also spoken with Dana at Street.

When sewer line was being installed, her property line was taken out, ground bulldozed, fence cut/damaged, and dog houses turned over. She wants Crider & Crider to replace fence. She has called C & C, CBU, Engineering, and Risk. SEE JANE FLEIG and/or JENNIFER LLOYD FOR FURTHER DETAILS.
