Accessibility Problem

Brick sidewalk on Kirkwood

Case Date:
8/15/2025

The ADA requires that sidewalks be firm, stable and slip-resistant. Numerous bricks that make up the downtown sidewalk are loose or missing. I saw an older woman trip on one of these in front of Fountain Square this week. I helped her up and when her husband took her to the ER because she may have broken her ankle. When it’s wet, these sidewalks are slippery than concrete sidewalks. They look nice but they are hazardous. At the least, the city needs to do a better job of maintaining them. Thank you.

There are creepy handwritten signs on Kirkwood today (Mon morning). There is one directly across from Uptown on a trash can, another further towards campus, and the 3rd one on my route is on the pizzaria corner. They are threatening in tone; they say people in the city should leave town as it's "the time of vengence." The Pizzaria one says to be alert because enemies are waiting to devour us like lions. Upsetting.

Blue ridge entrance on walnut

Case Date:

I would like some help to identify the electrical wire at the gates of Blue Ridge entrance. The soil is eroding and showing bare wire which I believe is part of the wiring for the lights at the top of the bricks.

This morning, a bus was dropping off children at the Buskirk-Chumley for a student matinee. The bus swung out too hard and ended up hitting and denting the parking meter on Kirkwood closest to the corner of Kirkwood and Washington on the block that has the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.

I paid a fine. I was just recently put on massive prednisone because of allergies and high doses cause cognitive issues. Hence I forgot to pay the meter. The prednisone is to keep me from strangling to death. I’ll make sure to stay away from downtown and all businesses from now on. Amazon is the safer option for people with disabilities.
