In regard to Mayor's S.O.C. address: Mr. Berkey "shutters" at thought of CORNER CURB EXT.'S around town w/ streets as narrow as they are. "They take away a car's turning radius, slow traffic, just not working well." (ie., sw crner of M.C. Library block projection-light pole on it,crner has been extended, cars can park in it - "it's awkward & uncomfortable to make turn." He basically suggests NO MORE CURB EXT.'S!
leaving the City Hall parking lot by the SW ramp to the B-line (just south of the fence), there is a heave of sidewalk on the ramp, demonstrated in the attached pictures. It is significant enough to cause a County Commissioner to fall on Friday and create an avulsion fracture of her finger! (I cannot tell if the photos loaded, so you may have double copies.)
This is a very deep, 2-3' at least, hole just at the edge of the sidewalk in 7th near college in from of the radio station. It large enough for a large man's shoe to fall through.
I am away on business and person watching my house reported that my front yard was dug up by the nuisance folks doing some kind of work in Ron Heifhts. Will the city be reseeding and fixing this area of grass between sidewalk and curb? No one contacted me whatsoever about this work or that they would be digging up my yard.

The sidewalk in front of 415 W. 7th St. (Used to be a Battery Express Place) is crumbling and is a danger to walkers. I have reported this site two other times in 2015.
There are multiple low-hanging trees on the south side of E Hagan Street that make the sidewalk difficult to pass. I believe these are city-maintained trees on the easement.

The curbs and speed humps on E Morningside appear to have been abandoned after the installation contract was completed. The first ones near E Saratoga and others are overgrown with weeds. It's not a pleasing sight for making a first impression near the entry to the Park Ridge East neighborhood. Residents seem to have not accepted an involuntary expansion of their lawn maintenance responsibility into the right of way on a busy street. Similar curbs near the park at the Park Ridge Road intersection are being maintained, maybe by city crews. Similar attention by the city for the other curb bump outs would be appreciated. An alternate remedy would be to cover the area of the bump outs with stone or other low maintenance materials that would reduce the recurring cost of cutting grass and weeds. A small tree planted in a bump out curb on the north side of E Morningside had its bark stripped off and branches broken last month, possibly by deer. Apparently trees were selected for planting without considering whether they have a natural resistance to deer. The tree had no protection from deer.
Our address is 4000 NRosewood Dr wondering if trees will be replanted? Also, Will stumps be removed? 2 ash trees were cut down see photo.
