Recently, the City has redone the intersections along East Cottage Grove to make the corners ADA-compliant. Unfortunately, the jobs were not completed. The installations of the warning plates are fine, but the street surfaces flanking them are not. The streets are all eaten up with deep, sharp gullies on each side of every installation at each corner of all four streets involved (Washington, Lincoln, Grant, and Dunn) where they cut through the concrete to prepare for the work. Also, the bit of asphalt applied to the corners afterwards was just mounded up and left bumpy and difficult for chairs (and walkers!) to navigate. Right now, all intersections are far more dangerous than they were before the project started, and if left in this condition will only get worse when debris, leaves, snow and ice begin to accumulate, and the rate of street degradation will intensify.

A new resident moved into the neighborhood recently who is in a wheelchair (permanently). He appreciates the ADA-compliant corners at the intersections, but he has difficulty navigating some of the sidewalks where they cross alleys. This particular location is *notoriously* degraded and should be the first alley-repair done next time the City is thinking about ADA issues. Specifically, it is midway between Lincoln and Grant on the south side of 10th. Thank you.

I had sent in a request on 5/19/25 Case #202787 reporting that Olive Street needs a concrete curb installed. Due to the excessive rainfall this has caused flooding issues for 1502 S. Olive and the house on the corner of Hillside and Olive (1144 E. Hillside Dr.). I was informed that this was on the paving list and there was plans for an asphalt curb. I called on 6/9/25 and spoke to the Engineering dept. (Iris) about installing a concrete curb instead of asphalt. There is already a partial concrete curb that runs past 1502. It needs to have a concrete curb all the way up the hill so that rain will not flood into the driveway and along the house of 1502, plus it runs past the curb into the yard of 1144 E. Hillside causing flooding in the basement. They have a sump pump now, but it's old and could quit at any time. It's already August and there hasn't been any kind of activity on this street. Do you have an estimated date as to when the street will be paved and the curb installed? Also, there is a construction sign in the yard of 1144 E. Hillside that has been there all summer and would like it to be moved. Thank you for any information you can provide!

Hi. This area of Maxwell lane needs to be built up a bit higher to help rainwater drain off into the grass. This spot retains water for many days after even a moderate rain. People like to park on the grass which is fair since it’s on the city’s right of way, but it looks bad, splashes pedestrians and bicycles and I think could be improved with a minimal amount of work. The edge of the road just needs a bit of building up so water drains properly. Thanks. Fred Pavalko

2 or 3 pretty big potholes on the block of 15th between Walnut and College

In the southbound, left lane. Not sure if it’s a pothole or grade difference in the road but it’s going to blow my tire. It’s hard to see so I hit almost every time.
