We cannot see to the north to pull safely out of our driveway. This company (Reed and Sons) has also left garbage up and down the street, making walking more hazardous.

Sign in ROW blocks visibility at intersection of Bloomfield Rd and Cory Ln
Neighbor finally removed big bin of trash, but is still storing bags of garbage on their back porch, easy access for animals to spread garbage all over.
I have lived on South Park Avenue for over a year and have found that the brush and foliage at 1200 South Park Ave (at the corner of South Park Ave and Grimes) is becoming a hazard for those turning out of South Park onto Grimes. The foliage has become so overgrown that it is very difficult to see the traffic coming from the left when you are stopped at the intersection and about to turn onto Grimes. You have to edge out quite far without being able to see the oncoming traffic. It is also very difficult to see South Park Ave. (and any potential cars turning out of the street) when you are traveling East along Grimes. The inhabitants of the home are not known within the neighborhood and so no one feels comfortable asking the owners/tenants to trim their trees and foliage. I am concerned that as the foliage continues to grow unabated that there could be a serious accident at this intersection. Not only is this a concern for those of us who live on South Park Ave., but for those who drive down our road each day to pickup and drop off their children at Templeton Elementary.
The house on the north-west corner of Maxwell and Fess has plants so tall that it is dangerous for cars driving south on Fess to pull into the intersection.
Very tall flowers in planter at 6th/College (on the Subway side) block line of sight of vehicles creating a hazard.
Tall landscaping blocking line of sight at Lincoln/Kirkwood creating a hazard for pedestrians,non-motorized, or vehicles trying to cross at this intersection.
Kirkwood/Washington landscaping completely blocks line of sight of pedestrians or vehicles. 3/4 planters at this intersection are this overgrown and block lines of sight creating a serious hazard.
There is a blind corner at the corner of S Palmer Ave and E Driscoll St. I was driving south on Palmer and a car pulled out in front of me because they could not see me coming. I slammed on the brakes and I came very close to hitting the other car. If you drive by it is obvious that something needs to be done or someone is going to get injured.
A tree limb/foliage blocks the line of sight just north of S. Spicewood Lane @ busy S. Sare Road. Exiting S. Spicewood Lane onto Sare (turning north) is precarious. Also, yesterday the "Tree Work" orange sign just south of this intersection blocked the view from S. Spicewood Lane. This tree (and temporary sign) are unsafe for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians in order to exit S. Spicewood Ln. Also, the new Pedestrian Crossing sign is blocked on the approach up the hill from the north on S. Sare.
