This picture is from same tree I made a ticket for last week, but on the opposite side. (Thanks for your prompt attention to those detached branches last week!) there is another dangerous hanging limb (or 2) that’s disconnected from the tree. All the maple trees in this stretch of road are in need of undergrowth clean up. Bare branches are constantly dropping onto the street and parked cars when the wind blows. I was told that about 2 weeks ago, Service Master was working at a house there and a larger branch fell on their van. I will email Haskell Smith concerning cleaning up this dead undergrowth issue as a whole in Gentry Honours in S. Park Ridge Rd.
Old leaning tree over the sidewalk and a few older trees with cracking limbs and branches these are on a city parcel and have been reported before after a large limb fell and broke other limbs on the trees. There is also a large tree along the street at 1003 w Cottage Grove that has dead branches on top of the tree. Along the curbs of w Cottage Grove the weeds are growing and will block the drains, there are leaves and black walnuts and gravel too.
In the Southeast Park tennis courts: there are yellow jackets living in one of the net support poles. They are in the eastern support pole of the West court. We were there last night and 3 yellow jackets were standing guard on top of the support pole, so we left to use the Bryan Park courts instead.
Sidewalk and stairs coming up the hill from the goat farm on the South side of Winslow road is frequently overgrown and hard to walk on. The brush between the street and sidewalk needs to be extensively cleaned out and frequently gets like this. Could you please clean it up and figure out a long term fix going forward? This is a critical walkway to the park and school for multiple neighborhoods. Thanks!
Very large oak tree showing disease. We are concerned it may fall on our house across the street if a storm comes. It may only need pruning but it is becoming a concern for our safety. We are not sure who owns the house it has been empty for the last 2 months, it was a rental property.
There is a very dangerous limb (a widowmaker) hanging from the tree over Dodds. This is not the snag in front of the blue house. It is the gray house which has a big tree in front. The limb is facing down toward the road, and would no doubt kill someone if it hit them or their car.
Poison ivy growing over sidewalk.
A stop sign at 7th and Longview (near Relato apartments) is completely obscured by a tree branch (for south bound drivers). A saw a car blast through it on Friday.
Can you please mow the "Rogers St & Hillside Dr" bus stop on route 2S? Tall plants in the parkway blocking wheelchair/bus visibility
