Sidewalk crumbling, trip hazard, needs repair -- Southside of 800 bock on 2nd btw Park & Woodlawn
The yellow paint on the curb adjacent to my driveway has (largely) worn away, and cars now park right up to my driveway on 2nd st, which is very busy. I can't see cars coming from either direction when parked cars take these (illegal) positions. I would like the yellow paint to be redone so that drivers would more often leave clearance around my driveway.
This sidewalk is a mess with missing parts.

The fiber optics crew drilling lines damaged (crushed/cracked/dislodged) almost 40 feet of sideway from the corner of Second Street and Park Avenue. Who pays for this destruction?
A resident of Hoosier acres located on the corner of Christopher and Brown Ridge at 606 S Christopher Drive called in to make a complaint about excessive tar in the curb are on Brown Ridge. They stated the road was resurfaced and this was left behind. They would like this tar to be removed.
Damaged sidewalk is inaccessible and a tripping hazard
I assume you're aware of the damage the gas company has done to the asphalt sidewalk in this area (east side of High St by Childs Elementary), and it looks like they are still working. Please make sure that when they repair the sidewalk, they also repair the area immediately north of their work area up to Rock Creek. They have clearly been driving heavy trucks on it and the edges of the sidewalk are cracked and heaving because of it. You can see at the curb ramp at Rock Creek all their tire marks proving they did it and they've broken the concrete there too. Those of us who use this regularly will greatly appreciate a full repair (don't let them just do the obvious area that they removed). Thanks!
Serious erosion of retaining wall supports of multi-use path at south east corner of intersection. The retaining wall erected to support the new-ish multi-use path shows significant signs of erosion, as the gravel piled on the path-side of the blocks used to traverse the creek/ditch under the path has washed away in multiple places, and the drainage holes in the large concrete blocks are now exposed. During the huge deluge in 2020, the block's in this area literally shifted. I suspect that another big deluge could shift them further, and collapse parts of the path. I have several images if you need them.
The roots of a city tree have raised the sidewalk between Bruce Storm Real Estate and Taste of India. Eddie stated he has seen 2 people trip over the raised sidewalk.
