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.

Tall weeds along the guardrail on the east side of Allen St where it intersects Bloomfield Rd are blocking the view of cars coming from the east.
At the corner of S Eastside Dr and E 2nd St, it is difficult to see to the east. The view is blocked by tree branches.
There is a visibility issue on the SW corner of Maxwell Street & Thornton Drive. The house on the corner built a fence around the property and planted trees on the outside which has caused a visibility issue for someone going north on Thornton looking to the west on Maxwell.
At Thornton Dr. and Henderson St. there is a line of sight issue looking south down Henderson while on Thornton. The stop sign on Thorton is back from the intersection and a driver cannot see users of the multi-use trail or traffic coming from the south on Henderson without pulling forward to the point of the vehicle being into the crossing for the multi-use path on Thornton. This has been a problem for a while. Today, I was stopped at the stop sign and about to slowly move forward to the point where I could see traffic when a bicycle heading north on the multi-use path coming down the hill from Miller along Henderson at a decent speed went flying by in front of my car without regard to the cross traffic pulling out. I'm not sure who would end up at fault when a cyclist goes over the hood of a car there in such a scenario but it seems better if the City can address the problem immediately instead of wait for someone to get hurt. I have seen similar issues with scooters coming down the hill there.
Stop sign and traffic obscured by overgrowth
Resident states that there is bushes and high weeds on the Northeast corner of Eastside Drive & Circle Drive that causes a visibility problem.
There is a line of sight problem where Eastside Drive turns into Circle Drive. If you are looking to the left, it is very difficult to see around bushes that have become overgrown. The citizen has almost been hit at least 2 times.
2 things: First, because of the bad line of sight, it is VERY difficult to pull out of our subdivision Bentley Court, or to turn into it. The other thing is we REALLY need a deer crossing sign there. Every day, deer go behind our houses and cross Winslow. Each day, I hold my breath, and can't look. Cars cannot see because of the bad line of sight/hill and then, there are the deer, daily. Help please!!!
At the intersection of Circle Dr and Ruby lane, 8 large plots of very tall decorative grass, along the Ruby Lane side of the property at 1717 Circle Dr, block the view of oncoming traffic from the east. These need to be removed.
