Weeds overgrown to the point extension into the streets.
Weeds overgrown to the point extension into the streets.
Corner of 17th and Lincoln (302 E 17th St) Northbound Southeast corner - bushes are blocking line of sight. He is a US Postal carrier and would like this addressed please.
There is overgrowth blocking the line of sight at the Driscoll/Palmer stop sign (heading east, looking to the north at the sign)
Received a complaint from a citizen that people are parking diagonally in the parallel spaces on Dunn Street at the SE corner of Dunn and 15th. There are three parallel parking spaces provided on this East side of Dunn Street. People are angle parking here to park more vehicles. This makes it difficult to turn from 15th onto Dunn as the rear end of the vehicles are in the Northbound travel lane.
Trees are blocking stop sign as you head south on Sare road. This morning was the 2nd time I have seen a car blow through that spot without even a delayed acknowledgement of the sign. **Main pedestrian way to Olcott Park and near Jackson Creek!!!
E Morningside on way to park super dark at night. Missing light?
DANGEROUS! Turning left on to Vernal Pike form Crescent Rd, the site line for 17th St is terrible. LOTS Of near accidents. Needs a traffic triggered stoplight!
There is no yellow curb north of the parking garage at the new Urban Station apartments on Washington, meaning that cars can park right up to the entrance. This makes the field of vision for vehicles leaving the garage very poor. Compounding this is the issue of cars briefly double parking alongside the car immediately north of the exit to pick up and drop off tenants.This is especially problematical because there is a bike lane right up against the parked cars. As I was typing this, I saw a car nearly hit one cyclist in the bike lane and two children riding on the sidewalk. I have also seen a few close calls between vehicles. The only thing preventing accidents at this point is the large moving vehicles parking in the bike lane, forcing bikes to move over to where they can be seen. A yellow curb to the north would greatly help expand visibility for drivers exiting the parking garage. Additionally, now that riding on the sidewalk is legal and I just saw two children nearly hit by a car exiting from the garage, I think it would be prudent to have a mirror installed so drivers can see the sidewalk before exiting--not sure if this would be a city issue or an issue with Urban Station itself. Being that these apartments have been occupied for only four days and I have witnessed one accident, three or four vehicular close calls, and two vehicle-bicycle close calls, I hope the city gives this problem area the attention it needs. As is, it is only a matter of time before a serious collision occurs.
It appears that the "wildfowers" which were blocking the vision of drivers exiting Prospect Hill neighborhood on Euclid and Second street are back again this year!!!!! Sorry to complain again about the same problem, but it is a very dangerous effort to turn onto Second street from this corner due to the rise in the road which obstructs vehicles traveling from town toward 37 and with the patch of weeds growing next to the street, the oncoming cars cannot be seen until they are practically at the intersection. Surely the homeowner has not forgotten the complaint from last year, but it would be advisable to remind them of the dangerous situation before there are some serious accidents. Thank you for looking into this problem.
Received complaint from Councilwoman Allison Chopra regarding the line of sight at the location due to the weeds obstructing the sidewalk. Doris Sims
