Parking department is a money hungry power scheme in the community that drives individuals away from visiting downtown shops and restaurants. For the individuals that always pay the meters and spend hundreds of dollars a year at the meters and then forget one time and have a $30 fee is ridiculous. The appeal process is also a joke. Need to reconsider how we treat our citizens and patrons of downtown businesses.
Another week or so has gone by. More trash piled up at 2998 S. Sare Rd. in plain sight of everyone in the neighborhood. Nothing has been done about it since my last report.
Vehicle repeatedly parked on this residential permit street without a valid City permit. It is not registered to any residence in the neighborhood and is being used as long-term storage parking. License # is ZST890
At the intersection of Clarizz and 3rd, near the corner closest to the Bloomingfoods, the unit for the pedestrian button is only loosely attached to the pole.
There are numerous potholes along this section of the bike road.
A request for snow removal practices going forward. The location is where South Morton ends at the Convention Center overflow parking lot. Vehicle traffic is stopped by three yellow bollards, but many pedestrians and cyclists use this road to enter the B-line from Morton St. In past winters, snow plows push the snow into a large pile that entirely blocks off the end of S Morton St, so even pedestrians can't pass through. In the past, I have shoveled a pathway through, but it takes hours depending on the size of the pile and how frozen it is, and I have to redo it every time plows come through, and I go through at least 5 snow shovels per year since they break from the amount of snow I need to move. Now I have a back issue, so I can no longer shovel a path through. Can you please coordinate snow plowing so that the end of S Morton is not entirely blocked? Maybe a smaller plow (like they use on the B-line) could work with the larger plows to keep the path as open as possible. Thank you.
Absolute CRATER of a pothole on the stretch of N Woodlawn between 11th and E Cottage Grove, just across from Luddy. Completely blew out my tire, I had a flat within 30 seconds and had to buy a new one! Not to mention, the campus busses take this route every day. I have seen numerous people fall because the driver hit this pothole head-on. It is only a matter of time before a campus bus gets a flat. PLEASE fill this pothole! It cost me $150 dollars!!!
There is a pothole in the street at the corner of Fenbrook and Sara. It started out a couple months ago about 1 foot in diameter, and shallow. It has now grown to a couple feet in size and is getting deeper. Residents, delivery trucks and service vehicles drive over it every day, and with winter coming, it is going to become dangerous. Thanks for looking into this matter.
Dead cat in the street. Thank you.
sticks and leaves in bike lane on Washington between 1st and Dixie are getting pretty obnoxious
