Ailanthus, large number of trees in vacant lot.
Ailanthus, large number of trees in vacant lot.
Hello, I was passing by the Fields Apartment complex, all around Clarizz, Fenbrooke, I need to check the exact streets. All of their trees lining the sidewalk and street are improperly mulched with root suffocating “mulch volcanoes.” I’ll pass by there again today or tomorrow and send exact street names and photos. Thank you so much! :)
Large ailanthus. Sprouts coming up on neighboring lot to the west.
On June 29th, 2025, the creek to the east of the property flooded, causing 10 apartments to get flooded and multiple cars in the parking lot. We believe that upsizing the culvert downstream to allow more water to pass would solve the issue. Thanks!
Patterson Point Affordable Housing by Pivotal: Air conditioning in most (or all) apartments has not been working and they say repairs may not happen for up to 2 weeks. This is affecting the residents who are low-income seniors, many of whom are elderly with serious health problems. Management has provided fans and small portable ac units to some residents but this seems to be insufficient for the current weather conditions. This seems to be a dangerous situation for vulnerable citizens.
The pine tree on Sheridan Dr. just east of Manor Road was marked for removal on May 5, 2025. I thought it would be removed within 60 days, yet it is still (barely) standing and leaning heavily. This tree continues to be a significant hazard. Is there anyone who has this scheduled for removal yet? Or was it forgotten about?
Tree limb blocking sidewalk
Cable hanging down on sidewalk near corner of W. 1st and WylieEuclid. Duke came and said not theirs prob phone or internet cable. Checked with one internet company (Comcast) and 14 day wait. The cable is on the sidewalk and a hazard in many ways. It seems to be possible related to the movement and placement of construction poles during demos and renovations to the East.
The trees and bushes in the Rail Trail parking lot along Country Club Drive are getting rather overgrown. The branches and bushes are obstructing the pedestrian and bicycle path that goes along the east edge of the parking lot to connect the Rail Trail to the B-Line. Can this all get trimmed back? Cut it back far enough it doesn't just grow right back in 2 weeks. Thanks.
Attention to Southeast Park and facilities. We have lived in this neighborhood for close to 20 years and the upkeep of the playground is not being handled like in the past. There are weeds and thistle all over the playground area and no new mulch added. It is an eye sore and not a great environment for the kids to play. If someone could get a handle on the weeds and clean it up a bit it would be nice. We also play tennis and I have reported before that there needs to be a seasonal blow around the edges of the inside of the courts. The pine tree droppings are such a mess and attach to the balls and an annoyance to play. The droppings with acidic state also start "eating" away at the court. If someone could address and blow the courts it would be appreciated.
