Trash has been scattered across the entire driveway for months with piles of more trash accumulating outside next to garage. Excessive growth to the point it looks like the movie setting for I Am Legend. After each storm large branches fall into street and are not picked up until neighbors just do it themselves. With the persistent amount of disregard to upkeep the outside it’s worrisome if there are hazards inside.
There is an apartment complex which has been in business for over thirty years that has had graffiti on the retaining wall for over six months. It is located at the corner of Fess and 2nd Street. I initially thought that the owners of the complex would do something about it but so far, nothing.
All of Elliston really needs to be repaved. Last summer several streets in Sherwood Oaks was repaved, but Elliston was not one of them. There are several spots that frequently need refilling. I know it's not a major thoroughfare in the neighborhood, but there is a lot of both vehicle/bicycle/foot traffic due to the park at the end of the street. At the end of the street, right before you get to the park, there are now massive potholes and uneven pavement. This is also in front of a residence. It seems like it is getting pretty dangerous.
2nd St is trashed from S Walker Street to Buildings Trade Park. Recent construction did a terrible job patching their work, it’s hazardous in many places.
When W 6th St was repaved last year they didn't bring all the sewer access covers ("manholes") up to the level of the new pavement. The one in front of the driveway to the Fairview Methodist Church is especially bad. It could cause a bicycle to wreck. It nearly caused me to get hit by a car when I was avoiding it. There are a couple of others (one square and another round) in the westbound lane that are also bad, but they are often covered by parked cars. (I put the dot on your map where the problem is, but the address is actually 600 W 6th since it's on the north side of the street.)
Several re-occurring pot holes, plus a metal, water/hole cover off and laying on the side of the road (West side of Aldi's.)
South side of E Second Street, near the 'wavy' red wall'. Ugly potholes.
Bike lanes on N. Smith Rd.need to be swept. The south bound lane from the Short Stop to Grandview Is particularly bad - full of yard waste, road debris, small bits of gravel, etc. Near the top of the hill, where the 14 foot sign is, there is a bush growing over the lane and face-slapping vegetation hanging down over the lane. I’m wondering if there is any regular schedule for sweeping bike lanes? At best, it seems this one gets swept about once a year. Sweeping the hill every couple of months wouldn’t be too often. The bike lane is narrower than recommended width to begin with. It gets really dangerous when we have to ride near the white lane (or sometimes in the car lane). The painted lines make drivers believe everything is ok as long as they stay between their lines and they don’t realize how closely they are passing vulnerable bicyclists. I’m sorry I don’t have pictures of the bike lane. But it should be easy to see what I’m writing about, especially if you are on a bicycle.
The grass is now almost 3 feet in places. No response from the owner.
We have an area right next to some storm drain manhole covers where a section of ground has fallen in. This area is starting to cave in under the roadway as well.
