Sidewalk in front of this this house hasn’t bewn cleared of any snow since the first storm over a week ago. Very dangerous to walk on currently.
A residential Parking Sign is improperly inserted into the ground causing it to be slanted at a 30 degree angle. This is almost blocking my driveway and causing the roof of my car to scratch it. Can you please re-dig this sign in the ground so that it's' straight? The sign itself is not damaged, it's just not properly inserted into the ground. Thanks. Kent Rerko 910 S. Manor Rd.

(Not really "street repair" but I couldn't find the right category): The eastbound Stop sign on Maxwell @ Highland, in Elm Heights, is OFTEN ignored. I have seen cars race right through it without even the pretense of slowing down. On foot, I have jumped out behind the car as it sped on, waving my hands and shouting "STOP SIGN!!", and once a driver waved an acknowledgment. Another time, driving north on Highland, I turned and followed the offender, honking and blinking my lights hoping s/he would notice that someone had noticed and be alert next time. The Stop sign is quite visible, not obscured by overhanging trees, so I am stumped. But I wonder if it could be moved closer to the road, enlarged, painted (the post too) a more neon/catchy red, and/or moved to the CENTER of the intersection (tricky for the snowplows, I know), and/or a "Stop-sign alert" sign added well before, or maybe it could be removed altogether with appropriate alerts posted for the north/south drivers, which might be safer than assuming people will stop. This is a potentially lethal situation for drivers, bikers, and walkers in a very pedestrian-heavy neighborhood. Thanks.
White Mustang parked on Eastside Drive too close to the intersection. Indiana license plate 261 LTW. White Ford Mustang. Car has been in this location from Monday 10-14, 7 pm until 10-15, 8 am (at the time of me submitting this online form). The car obstructs drivers approaching from the west on Maxwell Lane turning south on the 900 S. block of Eastside Drive.
BIRD scooter has been in the street for 4 days. I submitted an online form to the BIRD website on April 9. Our street has pedestrians, cyclists, and increased cars parking on the street.
Snow not shoveled at all this week on sidewalk
Signal on north side of intersection has broke free from the bottom wire holding it in place. On signals on west side of intersection, the bottom wire holding the signal in place has broken completely in two.
I leave near the corner of South Grant Street and East Allen Street. When traveling south on Grant, there is a stop sign at Allen St where it is truly impossible to safely see if any traffic is coming from the West. The vegetation is so overgrown on this corner that it goes several meters beyond the stop sign. Since there is no stop sign for drivers traveling East or West on Allen, drivers on Grant Street have to inch out slowly halfway into the intersection until gaining any visibility around the vegetation. Please send somebody to remove the vegetation on this corner or I'll end up doing it myself. It's far too dangerous for a road where there are almost always cyclists which wouldn't be as easily seen or heard as a car.
Friday and Monday I came home to a house full of nasty sewer gasses. My toilet and bathtub trap had been sucked dry of water. I've spoken to my neighbors and it's happening all up the street. My address is 903 W. GOurley Pike. (Your location map is confused.) I have a sickly cat at home and I am seriously concerned that if this continues he may die.
