There was a motorcycle accident on west 3rd and Yancy today at 345 pm. It is very difficulty to make a left onto Yancy from West 3rd heading east as you pass Wynnedale to make a left onto Yancy. There is no place to pull off and its extremely difficulty to see oncoming traffic due to the trees blocking your view to oncoming traffic
Trees/bushes on the side of 5th st make it difficult to see traffic when turning
Tree on the northwest corner of grandview and tenth st blocks view of oncoming traffic
At the intersection of 8th and Hillsdale there is excessice over growth so that you can't see the stop sign and it hangs so branches touch the roof of vehicle causing scratches. Additionally, you have to merge into Hillsdale to see oncoming traffic.
There is a tree that is found to be dead. Had an arborist check it out. Owner states city put tree in.
dead bird on sidewalk
Large bush obstructs view from driveway to street traffic. Two automobile near misses observed.
Overgrown brush blocking driver's view of street traffic. Blocks view from driveway.
During a meeting with today that Mr. Hazen had with the planning department, he mentioned concerns about the vegetation in the median of 3rd Street in the vicinity of his property at 1900 West 3rd Street. His concerns include: the height and density of the median vegetation prevents visibility across 3rd Street, prevents travelers on the roadway from seeing traffic in the opposing lanes, and prevents seeing someone who might be trying to cross 3rd Street mid block, etcetera. He asks that the vegetation be cut back.
Throughout the winter and currently, this uninhabited property has had unhoused people utilizing the garage in the back yard. People wander the alley and wander in the yard on a regular basis. The home also never had the sidewalks cleared from snow causing hazardous conditions for those of us who walk. Thank you. Near West Side Neighbors
