On our Second Street sidewalk there are two spots that are broken and dangerous. Two neighbors have fallen and told me to call the City!

The sidewalks and transitions to the road are awful on both sides of Georgetown. No way to push a stroller or wheelchair over these.
The sidewalk is cracked on the east side of Eagleson just south of First. But worse than that some kind of street sign type upright was cut off and the stub sticks. A real hazard for pedestrians! Thanks.
Sidewalk on Wylie at Hawthorne has been a mess for a long time. This photo is from 2 years ago I recently caught my ankle and almost fell. I know homeowners are responsible but you know they sometimes need a nudge. Could the City ne more proactive? Parking Enforcement could simply take photos and report places that need repair. Friends from out of town are shocked by the state of our sidewalks, especially when I tell them that the City isn't responsible for maintaining them.
Construction has blocked the only entrance and exit to our apartment building. The sidewalk is closed, and there is currently no clearly safe pedestrian route to enter/exit the building. Residents have to navigate this uneven gravel/construction area immediately adjacent to an excavation site with a significant drop-off and exposed stakes/rods. This condition has been left for residents to deal with- the construction crew has been gone for hours, and since it's now almost 6 pm I'm guessing they aren't returning tonight. There is no other entrance or exit to the building for two of the four residents. Could you please confirm what temporary pedestrian access is intended for residents and when safe access to the building entrance will be restored?
City maintained sidewalk is overgrown. This is within the area that has the chain link fence on the east. Numerous low-hanging trees.
On Wylie a bit west of Hawthorne (address is 830 Hawthorne. Several squares of sidewalk so badly cracked i caught my foot in one and almost tripped. SS4A should include walkable sidewalks or should I say sidewalks that pedestrians can use safely, including ones who have impaired mobility and/or vision. Thanks!
On 1st Street east of Henderson. Sidewalk tree plot needs mowing. There's a new duplex (address is on Henderson) but i don't know who is responsible for the strip. Technically that strip is on the other side of a fence from a conservation easement
May not be exactly the right address, but this drains from a downspout into the sidewalk. Not code, right? (Among other problems, that water can freeze on the sidewalk in winter)
Poison ivy growing over sidewalk.
