Street & Traffic Signs
W Allen St
- Case Date:
- 8/9/2025
The amount of semi tractor trailers traffic has increased. Semi’s turning from Bloomfield Rd on to Allen have to wait and block traffic for the turn while using the their lane and the center turning lane. Also they almost bother lanes of Allen St for a block or more until they get their semi straightened out. And if 2 happen to pass each on Allen st they have to crawl to not hit rub each other or take out mail boxes or trees.
When they heading westbound on Allen Dr and try to get on to Bloomfield rd is an ordeal depending which way they and turn in and if they have a load. I don’t understand why something can’t be done to force them to use the truck route that was put in just for this purpose.

cement is broken, showing plastic pvc pipe that seems like it is getting a lot of wear and possibly flexing more than it should. Seems like it could be a tripping hazard and possibly break, becoming even a larger hazard.

Hi! There’s a really large tree right across the street from our house that is totally rotten out and dead on one side and leaning towards our house. I’m terrified it will fall on us. I talked to a parks employee today who said he also sent an email. Hopefully it can be taken down asap, thank you!

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
810 N Walnut St
- Case Date:
- 8/12/2025
Every time it rains our street floods severely and then backs up onto the sidewalks and coats them in a thick layer of mud. It’s a combination of heavy storms that the storm drain on the corner of 12th and Walnut cannot keep up with and a residual problem caused by the fiberware that was installed last year. Ever since they dug up the corner of 12th and Walnut the ground is nothing but mud and has been slowly taking over the sidewalk. It is unsafe to walk on as it is incredibly slippery and is at least an inch thick.
Excessive Growth

Neighbors both front and back yard are excessively grown and riddled with weeds, attracting rats and other vermin. It’s unsightly and causing weeds to spread into neighboring yards. I’ve reached out before and nothing has been done yet.
