Street & Traffic Signs
735 S College AVE
- Case Date:
- 8/30/2024
There is a Detour sign across from Griffin Realty pointing north on College Ave. College Ave is one-way street going south. I have kept a spreadsheet of cars going the wrong way for several years. The number has increased tremendously during the month of August 2024. January - July 2024 I witnessed 18 vehicles driving the wrong way. In August there have been 25 vehicles driving the wrong way. I'm only at the office Monday-Friday from about 11:00 am to about 5:00 pm - so there are probably many more. It seems to me that something should be done about this. Thanks, Rachel LaGrange

Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)
1203 W 6th ST
- Case Date:
- 8/30/2024
Hello, I was just checking UReport and see that someone has closed our request for clean up after the storm in July. My husband called and told them that our debris would be on the alley side because there was no space on our street. He was assured that it would be picked up, but it's still there and the ticket (screenshot attached) is called 'resolved'. It's not resolved.
Street Trees
4091 E Morningside Dr
- Case Date:
- 8/30/2024
This summer the city installed speed cushions and bump-outs in Park Ridge East along Morningside Drive. Native trees and shrubs were planted as part of this greenway improvement project.
We experienced what seems to have been vandalism last night—the dogwood tree that the city installed in the traffic bump-out in front of our house was snapped off. It doesn’t appear to be the type of damage a deer would have caused (photo attached) which would be the only other explanation.
Will the city be replacing this tree?

Street Lights
1715 S Walnut St
- Case Date:
- 8/30/2024
People treat this traffic light as an optional stop sign. Even if the light is solid red (not blinking), if cars have seen a pedestrian finish the crossing or don't observe a pedestrian they continue through this red light. BPD could set up in the switchyard parking lot and rake in $ from all of the traffic violations here. More enforcement and maybe making the light always green (unless a pedestrian is crossing) would force car traffic to better respect this light. No one takes it seriously as is and I have seen multiple bikers/skaters/walkers almost get hit as they make the cross when the crosswalk is still clearly lit up.
Sidewalk Requests
894 E Miller DR
- Case Date:
- 8/30/2024
Speed bumps were recently put in for traffic control on Miller. If a sidewalk were added on the north side of miller between the city depot and huntington it would connect a disjointed sidewalk and additionally slow down traffic here

See the picture - resident is evidently unaware (or willfully ignorant) of trash and recycling protocol.
