820 1/2 W 2nd ST

Case Date:
6/29/2023

The overgrowth between the sidewalk and street on the NE corner of 2nd and Euclid blocks all the views of westbound traffic, creating a significant hazard. This occurs every year. The residents are apparently cultivating it. That overgrowth needs to be removed permanently.

Regarding uReport Case #183611: Nothing has been done about this issue (last communication was on 5/1/2023 by Michael Stewart). The issue: What looks like Bushes growing on the northwest corner of the intersection at High St and E Southdowns Dr are obstructing the view of cars on Southdowns wanting to pull out onto High Street. We cannot see cars in the southbound lane of High St until the last second before they reach the stop sign. Many drivers on High St don't come to a complete stop UNLESS they see a car on Southdowns. Please cut the bushes back so those of us on Southdowns can see what's coming from the north and cars on High St can see us further in advance, BEFORE they reach the stop sign.

2704 S Rockport RD

Case Date:

My son, Jeff Shew, lives at this address. He has contacted the city about having the side of the road mowed. His driveway is on a hill and there is no visibility coming out of the driveway. Saturday when I left this address, I had to inch my way out into the roadway to see if anyone is coming. Luckily for me, the car coming, which I could not see, slammed on their brakes and narrowly missed hitting me. Will it take an accident or death to get the city to trim this area????!!!! Please address the issue immediately and get back to me.

914 E Atwater AVE

Case Date:
8/19/2019

The alley that runs from 2nd St. to the Harmony School parking lot continues north across Hunter and runs to Atwater. There is another alley that runs from Faculty down to Woodlawn (just south of Subway). Those two alleys intersect. The problem is that the intersection is completely overgrown with bushes and vines, which makes it extremely hard for someone headed west to see anyone coming from Hunter. And since so many Harmony kids use that alley to get to Subway, I fear that one of them will get hit, especially now that there are several rental houses with parking off that alley. Could you either have someone trim the overgrowth back or ask the homeowners to do it? If you come down from Faculty, you will see how badly obstructed the view is of anyone coming up the alley from Hunter. (And if you use the alley off of Hunter, be prepared to get scratches on your vehicle by the bushes growing into the alley.)

3126 S Carnaby ST

Case Date:

The corner of Estate Drive and Falcon as you travel east on Falcon. As you approach the stop sign, you cannot see it because tree limbs cover a majority of it. You are right on top of it before you can see it which can be too late, especially your first time or two traveling that way.

1210 S Park AVE

Case Date:
8/25/2019

I have lived on South Park Avenue for over a year and have found that the brush and foliage at 1200 South Park Ave (at the corner of South Park Ave and Grimes) is becoming a hazard for those turning out of South Park onto Grimes. The foliage has become so overgrown that it is very difficult to see the traffic coming from the left when you are stopped at the intersection and about to turn onto Grimes. You have to edge out quite far without being able to see the oncoming traffic. It is also very difficult to see South Park Ave. (and any potential cars turning out of the street) when you are traveling East along Grimes. The inhabitants of the home are not known within the neighborhood and so no one feels comfortable asking the owners/tenants to trim their trees and foliage. I am concerned that as the foliage continues to grow unabated that there could be a serious accident at this intersection. Not only is this a concern for those of us who live on South Park Ave., but for those who drive down our road each day to pickup and drop off their children at Templeton Elementary.

Bushes overgrown around property adjacent to Atwater make it impossible to see oncoming traffic. Drivers traveling north on Clifton must pull into traffic on Atwater to see around the bushes.

2751 E Spicewood LN

Case Date:
9/17/2019

A tree limb/foliage blocks the line of sight just north of S. Spicewood Lane @ busy S. Sare Road. Exiting S. Spicewood Lane onto Sare (turning north) is precarious. Also, yesterday the "Tree Work" orange sign just south of this intersection blocked the view from S. Spicewood Lane. This tree (and temporary sign) are unsafe for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians in order to exit S. Spicewood Ln. Also, the new Pedestrian Crossing sign is blocked on the approach up the hill from the north on S. Sare.
