There are at least a dozen large city "cones" left over from the recent paving project on Wake Forest Rd. The cones are both at the intersection of Glascock and Wake Forest and along the blocks in either direction from that intersection.

Our church has an entrance on Wade Avenue (the address is 814 Dixie Trail, but we sit on that corner). The sidewalk right at the entrance to our Wade Ave. parking lot is badly broken with a few sections raised. This creates an incredible trip hazard. Could the city please replace this portion of the sidewalk?

Gravel has washed down from driveway over sidewalk, making it slippery and dangerous.

Every time we get a hard rain, the gravel runs down this steep driveway and covers the sidewalk, creating a trip hazard. The owners need to, once again, shovel the gravel off the sidewalk and back into their driveway.

There's a tree growing in front of this duplex whose branches now cover the sidewalk. You can duck under the branches, but it's not safe.

This property, along with the ones on either side, appear to be empty and might present other hazards. (The 120 Brooks property has something growing out of the roof.)

The grassy median on Clark Ave. (from Brooks Ave. east) is overgrown.

For the past week, a black pick-up truck and a huge white commercial trailer have been parked on the west side of this intersection. Cars that are turning off of Courtland onto Poplar have a hard time seeing around the huge trailer, often having to serve out of the way of an oncoming car or city bus. This vehicle combo needs to be moved for everyone’s safety.

Every time we have a hard rain, gravel washes down this driveway onto the sidewalk, making the sidewalk extremely slippery. The owner needs to shovel the gravel and put it back at the top of his driveway.

There's a large dead limb overhanging the sidewalk in front of this property. If the limb should fall while someone is walking under it, they could be seriously injured. The tree is planted in the "tree lawn," so this would seem to be a city issue.

The traffic triangle on Blount Street, near the Peace College softball field, needs mowed.

Traffic triangle at Delway, Wake Forest and Mordecai needs mowed. (This is the triangle that contains the "Mordecai" sign.)

The median on Clark Ave., from Brooks almost all the way to Oberlin, needs mowed. The grass is 2' tall in some areas.

Courtland Drive has been undergoing sewer and water pipe replacement since September. At some point, the curb in front of 1225 Courtland was broken (near the middle) by heavy machinery. About 2' needs to be replaced.

The grassy median that runs down Clark Ave. needs mowed. Weeds are a foot high in some places. Start at Oberlin and work your way down to Brooks.

Several of us have reported this house over the past two years with no apparent action from the city. Yard waste has been piled in cans for months without being moved to the curb for pickup. Trash cans litter the yard along with leaves, fallen limbs and other debris. The back door to the screened porch is propped up on the side of the house. The place is an eyesore, and the property owners need to be contacted by the city and asked to clean up their act.

The chimney has partially collapsed onto the ground.

The gravel in the owner's driveway constantly washes down onto the sidewalk, making it especially slippery and dangerous when wet. The owner needs to shovel the gravel off the sidewalk and continue to do so whenever needed.

There's black graffiti on a silver mechanical box at the SW corner of Peace and West streets.
