Turns onto 3rd street from Overhill Drive are very, very dangerous! It is basically a turn into a 5 lane road. I was going southbound on Overhill Drive making a left turn onto 3rd, but I was unable to see incoming traffic from eastbound 3rd street which was being blocked by cars stopped at the stoplight on westbound 3rd st. They frequently have to slow down to let me in and sometimes I have to swerve my car into the center lane to avoid an accident. The problem with that though is that sometimes westbound people on 3rd street wanting to turn left on Woodcrest Drive speed through the middle lane and almost crash into me while I am turning left onto 3rd street. It seems like the connection between Overhill Drive and 3rd street should be blocked off because there is no traffic light onto the 5 lane road which has high traffic, and due to the stoplight at 3rd/Woodcrest, all the stopped vehicles are blocking the view of oncoming traffic.

A car lost control on northbound Dunn Street towards heading towards Lake Griffy dam. This photo is a street light she hit and dislodged on North Dunn Street across from Lakewood Drive at the entrance to Blue Ridge housing addition. I believe a contributing factor to this accident is the many warning signs on northbound Dunn Street leading up to this location that are covered with leaves and branches, obscuring them. I have additional photos of the signs covered with so many leaves that you can hardly see them.

SE corner of 11th / Morton intersection has tall Tree-of-heavens growing in a clump. The clump hinders visual field for drivers going north on Morton who have stopped at the intersection and are planning to turn. Not clear if this is the responsibility of the City or the property owners. Note that Tree-of-heaven is a noxious invasive and should be removed (that is, dug up) wherever it is seen. It has spread all over town, but no one seems to notice or care. It is a terrible plant.

The neighbor behind me on Blue Ridge Drive has been dumping yard waste into the easement. I asked them to stop and they said that it wasn't my property because it was the easement under the power line. I contacted Duke Energy. What else can I do?

I submitted a report earlier this week, but have an address and a clearer picture of the problem area. This stretch of green is along Sare Road and is the responsibility of the owner of the address given. However, due to inattenttion, entering Sare Road from Spicewood Lane is hazardous to someone driving a car heading north. If you are in a truck or SUV, your line of sight is much better. There is now a great deal of traffic on Sare Road at all times during the day, traveling above the speed limit in many cases, that pulling out onto Sare Road is scary and dangerous.

Overgrown trees block stop sign on Kenwood and make it impossible for cars turning left onto Kenwood from Dunn Street to see traffic on Kenwood. Also overgrown trees along Dunn force people to walk in the street - combined with need to pull very far forward on Kenwood to see traffic this has led to 3 close calls (car+car; car+car; car+pedestrian). I thought I submitted in close call but never got uReport number. Perhaps my error or wrong category. Please help prevent accident & take action now that you are aware of the issue. Thank you.

The trees and brush along the east side of Walnut reduce visibility for drivers turning from Blue Ridge Drive onto Walnut. These were trimmed recently, but have become a problem again after all the rain.

Not sure if this is formally in the City or not and if HAND has jurisdiction here, but this property has a very tall fence surrounding the property that comes right up to the intersection of Rayle and Fairington. It is so tall and so close to the intersection that a driver cannot see traffic coming around the corner. It is unsightly and, more importantly, dangerous.
