There is a dead skunk in the road in front of 508 N Indiana Ave. It keeps getting run over and is causing houses around the area to smell like skunk.
homeless encampments are spreading throughout this area on 501 N Walnut St around peoples houses. Had filed a uReport with the number 192180 and nothing got resolved.
See case #201657. Two older men sit in the park nearly every day at around 11am smoking cigars right where people want to walk or sit. One of the men is extremely loud and yells vulgarities at people who ask him to stop smoking. Can someone in a position of authority please talk with them and ask them to not smoke anywhere in the park? They usually do it close to the bagel shop, where customers can smell them, but sometimes they sit closer to the bike shop, where everyone walks by on the sidewalk along Kirkwood. Please get them to stop.
Broken landscaping light across from the bus stop.
Multiple potholes in this stretch of Lincoln, ranging from the size of a tea plate to a dinner plate. Bikers in the bike lane have to enter the car lane to avoid them. The road is also covered in gravel and debris from construction on a nearby apartment.
Mike Frey - 317-727-3371 Mike is the owner of Bub's on the corner of 9th Street and N. Morton. The last parking spot on 9th street before you hit Morton has been turned in to a handicap space. According to Mike this space is on a hefty incline that was once riddles with pot holes. He stated that it is smooth, but that it is not an accessible space by any means being on a hill. He would like someone to reach out to him. Thank you!
Gentleman called the OOTM about the old AT&T building (which was was recently sold to Reign C02 Propco LLC of New York) running their generator in the middle of the night. It's very loud and disruptive to the nearby residents' sleep, especially when they have their windows open at night. The generator apparently runs a couple times a year, usually during a power outage, but with no power outage last night he was confused as to why they would run it. I would guess the new ownership could play a part. He called the police last night, they drove by, but said they couldn't do much since it was a place of business. There is no contact information for the building, but if anyone could get in touch and request them to not run their generator during sleeping hours (if reasonable or possible), it would be appreciated. Unsure who to file this report to, or if action can even be taken on it, but I wanted to try to help out this resident, and his neighbors, if possible.
Someone hacked all of these trees and limbed them up a ridiculous amount. Feels sooo barren now. Why would the city endorse this level of cutback on large sycamore trees? The canopy is going to be so high above a pedestrian that there is no feeling at all left of being in a wooded street scape. Very disappointing after all this work and money spent.
