Near Westside neighborhood had yet another fire this eve--third since the weekend. Every time we call the fire department, the don't do anything about it, but this time, they could not ignore it because the woods were on fire with huge smoke plume. (See video posted on Near Westside Facebook page.) Mayor Thompson has asked us to keep reporting and to use this uReport number 192446, but we can't because the issue is listed as "closed." These issues are connected to the unhoused people encampment back between the rail lines just west of Butler park. What is the City going to do help keep us from having to breathe the toxic smoke on a regular basis and also to keep us safe from the fires?

There is a city street drain at the bottom of my cul-de-sac between my house and my neighbors. I have been told by the city that the drain is not on city property. I am not sure why or how I am to maintain the drain. It is partially underground and does not drain as it should down the hill. How can the city put in a drain that doesn't work and then expect me to correct the issue. Last week I believe they backwashed the drain which let to a HUGE amount of leaves etc that was in the streets to wash down the hill behind my house and AGAIN destroy the steps I built! I have maintained the walking path at Rogers family park on both side of my house but am extremely upset that the city trees that fall and block the drainage along with the street wash (leaves, snow salt etc) destroying both sides of my house and washing away what little yard I have. I have cut brush and pushed logs but I am a 56 year old women and I can't move or clean as the city could if they would just come in and correct the drainpipe and push the dead trees away on the other side of my house. I push mud off of the trail and clean it all the time! I am often asked if I work for the city. I should!! I can't keep up with what the city should be doing with the water drainage in my neighborhood. I am at the bottom and I get EVERYONES leaves, sticks, street salt and mess. Please help me clean it up so I can continue to take care of it.

Not sure if this is the right department, but wanted to ask a question about priorities related to sidewalks and streets. I live on Goldin Ct on the east side. Last spring and now this spring, the city is ripping up the sidewalks and repaving them. Hard to argue with that need, but I walk them daily. In my estimation, they were not too bad at all. They do get travel, but not nearly as much as the streets. Goldin Drive and Goldin court are horrible and have been for the last two years. Pot holes, cracks, uneven road. I'm just confused as to why the there has been a two year priority on the SIDEWALKS, rather than the streets which are well traveled by cars and trucks. I'm going to attempt to attach some photos of my street to give you an idea of what I'm talking about. How do these funds get allocated and do you know when the STREET may get some attention?

I'm tired of being solicited by homeless people anytime I walk around downtown. I love this city and I love living downtown but I am hesitant to even walk a few blocks away from my apartment because I'm relentlessly confronted by homeless people. I have no problem with homeless people and I'm willing to pay my part of the taxes to get them steady jobs and homes, but soliciting hard working residents should not be tolerated and the authorities must step in
