There is a dead deer in our backyard. It was apparently hit by a car and then the non-emergency police came and euthanized it. I was told someone from Animal Control would be out to pick up the body yesterday. No one came. I have called them repeatedly, including again today. Other animals are chewing on the body and the weekend is coming up. I want it out of my yard today. I shouldn't have to keep asking.
uReport 207299 was closed by Rebecca Davis 1/08/26, stating that the heap of "End Construction" signs in the front yard of 1311 W 17th has been removed. The signs are still there! They have not been removed as of today 1/09/2026. FYI I have contacted the company Highway Safety Service in Lafayette twice (see photo 765-474-1000) to report. They promised twice to contact their "Ops Team" to remove the sign on the ground, but no one at HSS team has responded. We are super sick of the broken sign in our yard AND the other signs on W 17th St. There hasn't been construction since the fall. During the holidays, some people decorated their yards but we had a heap of junk with a danger light flashing in our yard. Please expedite removal of the broken sign and other construction junk from W. 17th St until there is some construction to warn drivers about. Sharon Roualet, Crescent Bend Neighborhood Chair
The water in Griffy Creek behind this property is incredibly murky today - opaque and greenish grey and a couple new items of garbage have appeared on the far bank. The level is high and the water is flowing swiftly, and it seems less cloudy coming in under the road from the dog park. There were a dozen ducks and a heron frolicking in the clearer, cold water less than a month ago.
Smoking continues to occur around north CH entrance, trash enclosure, bench/covered rest area, etc. This does not meet the no smoking regulations per city policy or state law. When raining smoking occurs under awnings near entrances and between county and city. Being subjected to this as a resident walking through or a worker walking through is not great. Please address this.
potholes
We had a large truck hit and break a limb off the tree to the right of our driveway. This happened once before and you guys came out and took care of it. This is not an emergency and I have moved the limb out of the street. Thanks! Andy
Trash and recycle containers placed out Wednesday evening. Looks like one or two items were removed from each container leaving both containers nearly full.
When heading west on 2nd street at corner of 2nd and Rogers, the signal to turn south on Rogers is not working and has not worked in over a month.
All the sewer drains on Liberty drive are clogged with debris
new, pretty deep pothole at the edge of W 7th at Oak Street. It's pretty much impossible to miss this hole because of the traffic calming "roundabout" at that intersection.
