A branch fell on the sidewalk a few weeks ago, and it was cut back and cleared. However, there is still a sharp branch extending out over the sidewalk that needs to be cut back even further. I walked into it today while walking my dog, and the branch cut my ear. It’s nothing serious but it could have been much worse. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Re: Follow-up to Service Request ID: 208930
I am writing to follow up on my previous request to repaint the curb in front of my driveway with yellow "no parking" paint, to ensure drivers do not obstruct my visibility when exiting my property.
Since the repaving and reopening of West 1st Street, traffic has increased significantly, with vehicles frequently traveling in excess of 40 mph. This creates a hazardous situation for homeowners along the street. With the fall semester starting this week, on-street parking near my home is (404 E 1st Street) already at capacity, further compounding the visibility and safety concerns.
I would greatly appreciate it if this issue could be addressed as soon as possible.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Elida C. Behar

Two doors down from us at 1012 South Grant St. the city did street, curb work that involved the digging the ditch out more and creating a much more severe dip in front of that home. The city put up orange cones along the the very edge, indicating it was temporary and in need of final repair. That was probably a year ago.
This ditch has a more severe drop off than any other on our street, or any street near by. It is an accident waiting to happen. Please know that our block no longer is just quiet homeowners. We have three Air BnB's (two beside this house) and student rentals (across street and a few down); their weekend parties once included students taking the orange cones for themselves (owners got them back!) and we often have cars parking along our street late at night during their parties. We are concerned someone will get hurt if any car parks along this dangerous edge - (people move the cones), or a person walking along with their dog or late at night can't see the drop off. Please help our block of neighbors learn what the ultimate plan is for repair and safety. A new student season and Air BnB rentals are about to begin. Thank you for reading this and looking into it for us all.

Might be 816 or 824 S University. The sidewalk and curb at the alley are possibly the worse I've seen.

- Case Date:
- 8/17/2026
Landscaping in front of this house and others in the area hang well over the sidewalk. This restricts walkability of the sidewalk and makes for dangerous ingress to the roadway, as it prevents the ability to see down Hillside Dr without inching out into the roadway to see past.
