The grass is the heighth of Andre the Giant. When leaving the mobile home park, one has to pull into intersection to see traffic coming west from 1st street. Due to this, collision is a higher possibility when needing to turn east on first street.

Not sure which category this belongs under. The grass-cutters for this property and the one directly to the north and also the Grant Street Inn to the south routinely blow grass cuttings into the street. Sometimes, there is so much that it creates a cycling hazard, and then when the rain washes it all into the storm sewer grates and clogs them, temporary lakes form. Are the any regulations relating to the levying of fines to careless people who dump yard waste (grass, leaves, etc.) in the street?
