Poison ivy growing over sidewalk.
Major sidewalk hazard: large cylindrical hole in the middle of the sidewalk, with no signage. I very narrowly missed it with my wheelchair. Not accessible. This is on the east side of S Rogers. I was going to Switchyard park on the sidewalk from "Rogers St & Hillside Dr @ Community Kitchen" route 2S bus stop. The hole is just after the sidewalk splits off with a path towards Switchyard.
Looks like a cut portion of the sidewalk that needs to be filled in. This is on the sidewalk close to the Warehouse and to Switchyard Park
A broken tree branch is hanging in the way of the path. Also the tree and pylon are covered with mature poison ivy, which extends into the pathway.
There is a new subdivision being built on this lot. The construction vehicles have damaged much of the sidewalk. When the construction is complete the builder should rebuild the sidewalk that they destroyed.
The side walk on the north end of our property continues to sink, resulting in standing water that discourages use & causes build up of trash & mud & causes a tripping hazard. There is a public drain of some nature in the same area just east of the area that floods. In order for the water not to stand it’s necessary for us to cut a small ditch through the area between the side walk & street for it to drain. When we asked for inspection of it in the past we were told our flower beds were too high. The flower beds are on the same level as surrounding grass & we have not built them up over the years, only planting perennials beneath pines that were there when we purchased the home 8 years ago. There are Callery pear trees in the birm are of the sidewalk which I know are famous for causing destruction around wet areas. Is it possible these trees are the problem? Please look, once again, to see if “fresh eyes” might determine further investigation to be warranted. Thanks for your help albeit likely far in the future with all of the flood destruction you need to attend to urgently. Be careful & take good care.
Not sure what's going on with the stairs, but the cinderblocks seem to be a huge hazard when walking and trying to reach the property.
When the new sidewalks were installed at the corner of Nota and Woodbine and on Nota, the irrigation system for 2300 E Woodbine was damaged in two spots. Pictures of the sidewalk repair and the invoice for repairs is attached.
Gravel driveway washed down onto sidewalk. Difficult to pass with wheelchair.
