Very poor sight lines at the intersection of S Highland Ave and E Winslow Rd. Perhaps that should be a 3-way stop?

Please do more to control the speed of traffic on Hillside Drive. It's a straight shot between High Street and Henderson, and drivers routinely go 40 miles an hour, including past Templeton school. It is difficult to turn left from Woodlawn onto Hillside going east, and from Highland onto Hillside going west. Visibility isn't great at either intersection -- at Woodlawn because cars pulling into the right turn lane in front of Carlisle block the view to the east, and at Highland because there is not a great sightline to see cars speeding from west to east. This morning, there was an accident with injuries that shut down Hillside at Woodlawn. It was just a matter of time before this happened. The flashing speed signs might be making a small difference, but not enough.
623 again with disgusting trash overflowing in the backyard, getting scattered around the neighborhood by animals. This place has been a nuisance for years, when is the city going to do something about this drug den? It's falling apart while the rest of the neighborhood suffers.
Credit where credit is due, the city's recent actions to secure this park have been a success overall. The park is cleaner, no open drug use, and families have started bringing their children again. Unfortunately, it feels like the city's attention to this area has waned, and now the same miscreants are starting to congregate again to test the waters. Please don't stop patrolling/enforcing the park rules now, or it will quickly return to the state it was in.
City truck #4731 or 4371 does not have “Mud Flaps”. Are dump trucks not required to have “Mud Flaps “?
Elm (?) tree in front of 715 S Fess Ave appears to have a disease or is otherwise unhealthy.
Pickle ball courts nets need to be tightened so they are horizontal. Also, lights should be added to the courts for play after dark. Thanks!
The intersection of E Hillside Drive and Woodlawn Ave (leading to Bryan Park) is dangerous. Many cars back up at this intersection, coming from the university or the park, to turn on E Hillside Drive. With E Hillside Drive funneling so much traffic in both directions, people tend to take whatever openings they can get, often not following standard traffic laws (such as yielding to whoever was there first). This intersection would highly benefit from a stop sign. There was a dangerous accident there this morning (see attached photo), where a car flipped upside down from the impact.
Uneven surface at intersection, especially at south side across Washington Street
Stop sign for northbound Henderson traffic obstructed by vegetation.
