Major deterioration of city street pavement at entrance of paved alley, approximately 4” deep, causing hazardous driving condition.
Vehicle has been parked in same spot for over 6 months & has not moved. I assume it's disabled. It doesn't appear to belong to any residents because no one here has accessed it. License plate tags expired in March.
there is a van blocking the whole alleyway behind my house
As has been reported before (#176415, #177627, #184577), the invasive plants on the NE corner of the property along Cottage Grove have grown out so far that they completely block the sidewalk.
We are wondering if the E/W stretch of concrete between 707 N. Lincoln and 711 N. Lincoln is an alley (public thoroughfare) or a driveway (private property). If the former, the resident/tenant at 707 has blocked passage through it with stones and a basketball court. We have assumed for a long time that this is actually an alley and would like to be able to walk down this stretch, but if it is indeed private property we would like that made clear so that we not trespass.
A fence has been bent down over the B-Line near where it ends at Adams St. Along the top edge of the fence, is sharply pointed barbed wire. This is positioned above the trail precisely where it will catch a cyclist in his face causing severe injury. This is such a very dangerous situation that it should be taken care of with the highest priority.
Tree has poison ivy and *many* other invasives growing around and up the trunk.
Trash strewn about west side of house - animals digging around in it. Also, back of property (in overgrown area) has much trash in it, including old television, etc. Looks like a city dump.
