I found a bunch of Heroin Syringes on the ground between the apartment buildings. Lame that people would shoot up just right in the grass out in front of the building, then toss the shit onto the ground uncapped. Not hard to see why people don't have a lot of sympathy for addicts.
Duke Energy has refused to remove a large orange cable that is down on the length of my property (3/4 of an acre). They say someone else needs to take care of it, like maybe a cable company. I am concerned that it is dangerous to kids in my neighborhood and I cannot do yard work around it. Moreover, it is in the utility easement. They said to pick it up and see if it is attached to the utility line and I am unwilling to do that because it seems risky. In any case, no utility should be leaving their waste on my property and they should take responsibility for removing it safely.
Trash was not picked up this past Tuesday morning 3/11/2025
Multiple "Campus Walk" advertisement signs in the ROW along 8th and at least one on Lincoln. Telephone number on signs is "(812) 332-1509".
Traffic light appears to be out. Only the right-most light of those visible to drivers headed west on 7th at intersection with N College. It might just be green light that is out- not sure.
The north end of this lot (adjacent to the RR fence and right next to Grant Street) is overgrown and there is a lot of trash that has accumulated in the area over the years. The trash is not as obvious during the summer when all the plants are leafed out, but right now it's easy to see it all. Broken glass and shards of metal, etc. Probably dangerous.
I hit a really large pothole on 11th St. close to the Uplands Brewery. I will be reporting wheel/tire damage if needed after hitting that thing. That could really do some damage.

An old BBQ has been sitting outside along the b-line, left there by the fire company when they had their temporary station on 4th, long past time for them to clean up their mess.
There is a large, bed-like object that has been lying in a gully in the backyard of this property for at least a year, though it's not obvious that it is indeed on this property rather than on property that belongs to 214 or 216 E. Cottage Grove. It is right by the alley.
