A new resident moved into the neighborhood recently who is in a wheelchair (permanently). He appreciates the ADA-compliant corners at the intersections, but he has difficulty navigating some of the sidewalks where they cross alleys. This particular location is *notoriously* degraded and should be the first alley-repair done next time the City is thinking about ADA issues. Specifically, it is midway between Lincoln and Grant on the south side of 10th. Thank you.

Recently, the City has redone the intersections along East Cottage Grove to make the corners ADA-compliant. Unfortunately, the jobs were not completed. The installations of the warning plates are fine, but the street surfaces flanking them are not. The streets are all eaten up with deep, sharp gullies on each side of every installation at each corner of all four streets involved (Washington, Lincoln, Grant, and Dunn) where they cut through the concrete to prepare for the work. Also, the bit of asphalt applied to the corners afterwards was just mounded up and left bumpy and difficult for chairs (and walkers!) to navigate. Right now, all intersections are far more dangerous than they were before the project started, and if left in this condition will only get worse when debris, leaves, snow and ice begin to accumulate, and the rate of street degradation will intensify.

Brawley management has put up "For Rent" signs in the ROWs at multiple locations in the neighborhood along Washington and Lincoln and between 8th and 10th Streets, and likely at other locations around the city. Please remind them to periodically reread the City Code - hopefully, they will eventually learn to be less self-serving and dismissive of the neighbors.

Large pile of brush has been sitting at the SW corner of Lincoln and 10th for weeks. Appears to be in ROW.

Not sure which category this belongs under. The grass-cutters for this property and the one directly to the north and also the Grant Street Inn to the south routinely blow grass cuttings into the street. Sometimes, there is so much that it creates a cycling hazard, and then when the rain washes it all into the storm sewer grates and clogs them, temporary lakes form. Are the any regulations relating to the levying of fines to careless people who dump yard waste (grass, leaves, etc.) in the street?

Dead deer in wooded area back off of Reed Court. Behind Taylor Ct. Hope someone can remove it soon. Putrid smell

The grass is the heighth of Andre the Giant. When leaving the mobile home park, one has to pull into intersection to see traffic coming west from 1st street. Due to this, collision is a higher possibility when needing to turn east on first street.

A large branch high in the city oak tree in front of this address is dead and has partially fallen off the tree. All the leaves are dead and a different color so it is easy to identify. The branch is still attached, however, and could fall during a storm or high winds onto cars that often park under the tree. Could the city remove the branch to limit potential destruction of property in the future?

There need to be signs on Rogers going south into the 2nd Street intersection because people are not very smart. Cars are going straight from the left turn lane into the shifted lane on the south side of the 2nd Street intersection on Rogers. On Friday afternoon, 4 cars from the left turn lane cut off traffic going straight from the proper lane. This is dangerous. People are bad drivers.
