The grass in northern part of Bryan park appears to be wet. I saw water coming out of the ground near the basketball court. There are puddles in some places and in most places the grass is just soaking wet. Since there is no active rain, I thought that amount of water is unuy. And the water coming out of the ground could indicate a water leak. I attached a picture of the hole I saw. There is water coming out of it. But I couldn't attach a video from it here.
Car brings homeless and children
Appears that a water line connected to a garden hose has broken at the property. In the back of the property, near the AC condenser, water has been spraying out continuously for the past 12 hours at least. Not sure if the line is secured or the property owners know about the water break.
Huge homeless encampment growing by the week they’ve already burnt these woods down once are we waiting for round two
There is an abandoned vehicle parked in the street at 908 S. Washington St. It is a blue Volkswagen Tiguan with flat tires and expired plates.
The trees block the sidewalk entirely and I have to walk in the bike lane to get across.
Spring has started and the outdoor smoke coming from the Barbecue is in full force at the Short Stop food-mart on North Smith Road. My wife and I had three meetings with the City Council about this issue in 2015. And 2 recorded meetings with the council as a whole and a second meeting a few weeks later. The smoke issue was to be addressed for this location. But Chris Smith sold the store without implementing the standards the City Council had requested he perform. He was supposed to install and indoor smoker by December of (2015) that never happened. And he then sold the business in spring of 2016. As an example of how bad this smoke is. I hung wet laundry outside yesterday (Wednesday 4-25-18). Hoping for that nice fresh air smell when it was dry. Our clothing smelled like we had been next to a campfire. So I had to rewash all of the clothing. This has become a HUMAN HEALTH hazard and it has not been taken seriously. The city did nothing after our meetings to address SMOKE issues from cooking outdoors. I really hate to call the Fire department each time I smell smoke. As the cost to the city will be ridiculous for putting out (3) outdoor smokers. But that is what I am going to start doing. As we cannot breath. She had a lung removed and everyone is turning a blind eye towards this fact. Let me know what the city can do. Our district representative Allison Chopra was at the meetings as she was running for office and won the election. But I was told she had slept since the meetings and did not remember the restrictions placed on the smoke issue. If necessary I can send you the link to the videos of the meetings and what was proposed. Thank You.
A left turn light turning from Patterson onto Allen is needed, the oncoming traffic is obscured by foliage and the curve of the road
