Please revisit case #200395. This was never taken care of - a box of trash and recycling bin full of non-recyclables is still blocking sidewalk after weeks. Does "citation" mean a fine was issued - one that will actually be collected - or just an ineffectual "Please take care of this" note?
Caller to HAND wants to remain anonymous. Reports that neighbors' (they are renters) trash & recycling is consistently overflowing the bins and blowing downhill through the neighborhood. Caller has tried talking to the tenants in the past. He wants to make sure that a citation does not go to the incorrect address since the newly moved in tenants are not responsible for the trash.
Discarded mattress and furniture behind dumpster for two weeks.
Mattress and trash next to the road & all over the place.
Large pothole on the southern side of Winslow near the edge of the road, if you are going down the hill (heading east).
The intersection of watson and Madison is a 4 way stop sign intersection. Throughout the day cars fly through the intersection because they are avoiding the light at s Roger's and country club. Can the signs also says all sides stop. Or speed bumps. Kids live in the neighborhood and walk home from the bus and school. Its dangerous.
Bird bicycle left in tree plot since Monday night 2/10/25. Please have this removed
Part tectonic plate, part aircraft carrier bulkhead--Houston, we have a problem. It would seem that some utility repair of another has resulted in a steel plate the thickness of a very hefty mozzarella stick, length and width that could probably park a Smart Car, in the middle of the road. I suspect this formidable obstacle is the result of whatever adventure IU tasked itself with over winter break, as I observed their vehicles there, but that's not to say I'm 100% positive. Either way, the impact of this scrapper's dream was presumably originally mitigated with the pouring of some cold patch concrete around the edges, but alas, much has changed since. Tire impact after tire impact has slowly moved this plate, rendering the cold patch mostly useless. As steam billows out from around the edges, I imagine whatever was being fixed is still in the process of being fixed. But at the moment, it's like witnessing suspension-damaging continental drift. Aside from mounting this hulking piece of metal in a museum as a replicated piece of the Titanic's hull, creating a more subtle transition from pavement to metal would very much be appreciated. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
