Drainage or Runoff

918 W 13th CT

Case Date:
6/12/2020

Hi. I just want to say that I really appreciate the Adopt-a-Drain program. I was told about it by a city worker named Kriste. Anyway, I've complained for years about the storm drains on Blair Avenue. They get clogged (mostly by grass clippings from people mowing) and then the rain doesn't drain well. For years I said, why doesn't the city clean these? I was annoyed about it because the water would carry seeds and dirt, which would collect in my gutter, and then the next thing I know I have to mow my gutter! lol! So for the past four years I've been cleaning out my gutter, muttering to myself about the drain, and then every now and then cleaning it out, too. When I heard about Adopt-a-Drain, I realized that I could handle that task for two drains on Blair Avenue that impact my yard. Kriste also taught me that the city has over 12,000 drains, far too many to handle without some help. So, now I know that I can help, and I'm glad to do it. Great program!

Line of Sight

702 1/2 N Fairview ST

Case Date:
6/12/2020

Greetings. Could someone please cut back the vegetation at the southwest corner of where 11th st. intercepts Fairview. It has blocked visibility from both directions and is causing a safety issue. There is also signage that is being hidden. Thank you kindly! Addendom: I am a pedestrian not a motorist. It has become unsafe for pedestrians at an intersection that is already dangerous due to motorists speeding from three directions. Thank you.

Street & Traffic Signs

2231 N Martha ST

Case Date:
6/12/2020

The "no parking" sign in front of this house has been removed (just the post remains). This is right in front of the house where the off-campus fraternity operated in violation of the city's zoning ordinance (which we reported but the city did nothing about), whose residents and guests habitually parked on the "no parking" side (which the city never enforced). Please replace the sign so the next tenants know they cannot park on that side of the street.

Temporary Signage w/o permit

112 E 12th ST

Case Date:
6/15/2020

Griffin Realty "For Sale" sign has been placed in the City right-of-way in front of this house. Company has been contacted about the issue, but they have hitherto arrogantly dismissed the situation. Sign should be located on south side of sidewalk on the actual property being offered for sale, not in the City right-of-way that makes the sign visible for several blocks.

Parking on Unimproved Surface

1650 W 8th ST

Case Date:
6/16/2020

Randy is always having people park blocking the shared alley. He also will park up to 3 cars in his front yard on the grass, making it almost impossible to get in or out of the drive without hitting the plants on the side of the alley. This is an almost daily occurrence.

Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)

1612 W 8th ST

Case Date:
6/16/2020

Excessive sand and dirt build up in the street in front of my house and my neighbors on both sides. Street sweeper machines aren't strong enough to pick it all up, watched them drive right over this stuff with no effect last spring. So you need to send some guys with shovels to manually scrape this stuff up. Weeds keep growing in the street, looks terrible. I do my best to weed eat but its literally in the road(the city's responsibility)!
