A disturbed homeless person has turned the DETOUR sign near the bus stop on S Walnut (in front of the Smoke Shop) around, so that motorists coming from S Walnut, heading towards Second Street can only see the back of the sign.
Thank you to Mayor Thompson for your most recent voicing that North Park is not where the jail should be situated and that you will activate municipal resources and approvals to expedite more suitable placement. Cheers for recognizing when an about face is needed.
Corner house at intersection of S Eastside Drive and E Second. Dead branch has fallen from a tree in the yard and is hanging over E Second Street on another branch. It may fall during the next storm and land directly on the travelled part of the road.
This is just one location that I've noticed in the last 24 hours. But the hemlock has started to bloom and I'm seeing it everywhere. I had a friend who picked it thinking it was Queen Anne's lace who ended up in the hospital so I think it may be time for another PSA about the plant as it is starting to really take hold in town! (I notified the real estate agent who was selling the house for the other place I saw it on 4th street. I also saw it on University drive on my way to work this morning but didn't get the address as I was on my bike but it was on University between Lincoln and Henderson on the south side of the street.) Thanks all!

There is a large dead tree outside the Elkins apartment building at 410 S. Fess. It is overhanging several utility lines, and it has a big broken limb dangling over the sidewalk.
Poison hemlock growing along the Jackson Creek just below The Shoppes.
See picture. Just reporting - at approx location north side of 5th street. Overhead wires draped through canopy of utility easement flora. One end is also dangling from overhead near the road. Not sure which company is responsible, so putting in ticket for city action.
Telephone line wires got hit and are down in the parking lot at TechOn Btown (mobile phone repair shop)
