All of the decorative lampposts on North Walnut near the intersection with 11th Street are dark. Three on the west side of Walnut and north of 11th, one on the east side of Walnut north of 11th, and two on the east side of Walnut south of 11th but still north of Cottage Grove.
The pedestrian crossing sign on the west side of College Ave north of the intersection facing east has a non-functioning “tens” digit.
We have received several complaints on this safety concern. Street cut/storm drain repair work within most of the 3rd street bike lane has not been finished.
A large percentage (30%+) of sidewalks in the Bryan Park neighborhood are still covered with snow or ice which makes walking, running and pushing strollers very difficult. I understand there is an ordinance that stipulates fines if the snow or ice has not been removed 24hrs after the end of the weather event but it does not appear to be enforced. Many of the addresses appear to be rentals as well.
I'll admit that this isn't one of the more extreme instances of "excessive growth" by any means, but it nonetheless reaches beyond the property and obstructs a portion of the sidewalk. The other day I had to pass by another person here and essentially found myself walking through plants/bushes.
Property owner blew leaves all over sidewalks along both Cottage Grove and Lincoln, where they have piled up and are blocking passage and making the walkways slippery and dangerous. If the City refuses to pick up leaves, they should at least follow through and fine people who blow leaves onto ther people's property or public thoroughfares. The argument that the leaves will eventually decay is specious; that line of thought could be extended to saying that there is no need for laws at all because eventually everyone alive today will one day be dead.

The seam along the crown of S. Ketcham Road has opened up. Would it be possible for a crew to come out and patch the seam?
We were told that COB along with Monroe County would be working to collect excess tree debris from the July storms. We followed what was asked and submitted a form(case #192173) and placed it all on the side of the road next to our driveway. My husband saw the people come by on the day we were scheduled and they picked up some stuff on the OPPOSITE side of the road(directly across from our house where there is no house) and left everything next to our driveway along with the debris next to our mailbox. They seemed to have picked up a small amount of the debris next to the mailbox but not all of it. My husband checked and our case is now 'Closed' but it only lists anonymous. So someone skipped us or just didn't do it and then closed out our ticket with no reason. We would like someone to come out and collect. Thank you
