Submitted on behalf of Casey Guarino. On August 8, 2024, around 12:30 PM, both sides of S. Rogers St. were obstructed and impassible for wheelchair users around 714 S. Rogers. One sidewalk had no curb cut access due to construction. The other sidewalk, at 715 S. Rogers, was blocked by a temporary sign. Casey requested that a construction worker in the area move the temporary sign so that she could pass. The worker refused, saying "People who can walk can get around." When a passerby picked up the sign, the worker said "You can't do that." The passerby briefly moved the sign regardless, and Casey was able to reach her destination. However, both sidewalks remain obstructed, which is a major accessibility problem.
Vegetation is blocking half of the sidewalk in the 200 block of E 3rd. I could cite many other examples, but thus one blocked me today. Thank you.
A utility cover is missing next to the convention center, leaving a small uncovered hole.
Can you contact Tri North with concerns that they have cars line up for student pickup that block the entirety of the main accessible spaces by the office. I don't know an easy solution but there should be at least one available accessible space for those who need it.
Multi - use path is below concrete curb, not accessible like all other corners at intersection.
Firestine frequently permits customers to park on the sidewalk, blocking pedestrian access. The attached photo was taken on 9/26/24.

Hi, I work in a commercial building at 800 S College. Our building was recently sold to Storage Express and they have proven to be negligent in terms of snow removal. They have failed to clear our whole lot these past two weeks (leaving not enough cleared spaces for our business needs) and I have now had to twice dig out our one handicapped parking space by hand. We have addressed this with them in person and they were not responsive to our concerns. We are responsible for clearing our immediate walkway, but they are responsible for lot clearing and maintenance as per our lease. Our building is almost entirely service professions (massage, salon, barbers), and we have many older clients and folks with mobility issues and it is becoming a safety hazard. I am aware HAND handles residential citations, but am unaware of the proper channel (if any) for commercial properties. Would gladly accept any assistance. Thanks so much!
tore up sidewalk and haven't repaired
