Streetlight on corner of Maxwell and Henderson is out.
Cars and buses regularly speed on this street, often exceeding 35 miles per hour. Due to their speed, they are unable to stop at the stop signs—including city buses. I am requesting that a speed limit sign be installed, ideally one that displays drivers’ actual speed (similar to those used in school zones). Our street and its connection to First Street have effectively become an unofficial bypass for east–west and west–east traffic, including city buses. This is a residentially zoned area with pedestrians, cyclists, children, pets, and wildlife. The sidewalks are narrow, and vehicles—especially buses—traveling at high speeds pose a serious risk. I have personally witnessed both buses and cars run stop signs, even when pedestrians, families with baby carriages, and cyclists are present. The cars/buses still don't stop and merely drive around the "obstacles." At a minimum, a visible speed limit sign should be installed—preferably one that tracks and displays speeds.
Flexepark lot here has no accessible parking
The pole and street signs for "JACKSON" and "12TH" is no longer standing. Judging by the tire tracks in the snow, I would guess that some driver knocked it over when cutting the corner sometime on February 18, but I did not witness the collision. If it was a plow truck, I would assume the truck did not have the plow blade down, or else the blade would have hit the curb first, I would guess. Please put the pole and street signs back up. Thank you.
The intersection of 2nd and Landmark is heavily trafficked and is difficult to cross as a pedestrian. I would love to see a crosswalk added here provide continuity of the sidewalk on the north side of the street.

It looks like a water main has ruptured near University and Eagleson. Thousands of gallons of muddy water are streaming down Eagleson Ave.
