Citizen says after trash/recycling pickup on Tuesday her cans and bins were scattered all over and, broken glass was left in the street and a non-accepted piece of plastic was thrown in the yard. J.A. explained that often these things happen after the crew leaves, but we would make them aware of it.
Citizen says trash crew threw his can against a concrete barrier and broke the handle. Says recycling crew threw his cardboard containers around his and his neighbor's yard. He will purchase new can & send receipt to City. Ken - please check with crews and respond to Julio.
Citizen says he took some trash to landfill between 11:30-11:45 on Tuesday, Sept. 3. Said while he was on the scales, a City Sanitation truck came up behind him, driver got out and started screaming and cursing at him. Says driver had long dark curly hair. Says City employees should not behave this way.
FYI--Mr. Rogers called to complain about several officers actions during an incident in which he was assaulted. He filed an internal complaint form w/ BPD & has not heard back. He is "disgusted" w/ the way BPD has handled this case & wants to speak to the Mayor. I told him that he shld allow for all the steps in the complaint process to run their course. Mr. Rogers said he wld contact Brd Public Safety, but expected to receive a phone call from the Mayor. He stated he wld call Channel 6.
Mr. Bell called very upset saying basically that on a 1998 December evening, after having an argument with someone, was arrested by a blonde-haired officer working the night shift (he named either Officer Kellams or Helms). Apparently, the person with whom he was having the argument called the police, who then detained him with handcuffs and started "beating/assaulting him." Mr. Bell had several other issues he was struggling to resolve, and has an apparent court date on 1/ 22.
Re: Case #165561 Some debris from the accident remains near the RR underpass. Trash and weeds are still on Adams, and on Fountain, and on 8th Streets. Streets near the university at least get swept. Can the City seal the streets, so the weeds won't grow?
Flow at 10th across campus needs improved. Slow speed is fine but not clogs. Particularly Spea/Wells walk and then left at Union.
Slow but flowing traffic is safer and more pleasant for everyone compared to stop and sprint jams on 10th. Put a signal or over or underpass at SPEA/Wells crosswalk and a left turn signal at Union and 10th on 10th Street. Thank you.
Apartment Complexes in the area? Why is it that the apartments have the sidewalk on the outside of the building cleaned but the inside court yards NOTHING is cleaned? I have seen several of the lower class apartment complexes people must pay rent on time yet when we have bad weather we still get no credit for being people living in the buildings? We are not appreciated cause we are LOWER CLASS? discrimination to me. Where is the R E S P E C T FOR US!!!!
Can the bus slow down a bit on Morningside Drive please? Scared a kid will get hit. I appreciate the speedy service and option in the neighborhood, but also value our pets and kids not expecting a big bus to zip by. Thank you!
