City of Huntsville PLUS

1. End of Speake Road needs street sweeping to clean up debris and needs doing regularly.

2. Grass, weeds, trees, and bushes on city property(left side of picture)needs to be cleaned up and chopped down.

3. Behind the high grass and weeds is a broken chain link fence also. This was broken years ago by a police chase and was never repaired.

4. End of Speake Road was never finished properly after being resurfaced. There is a sign left on the ground that was never installed. The asphalt does not go all the way to the end of the street. The signs were installed 2-3 feet from the end of the street. Also the asphalt was never finished properly around the signs. The asphalt was shoddily done and does not even go up to the installed signs. Instead it ends before the signs and goes around them in an ugly manner instead of being done properly.

There is a huge red ant hill at the intersection of Terry Drake and Taylor Road. This ant mound is directly in the path of children walking or riding their bikes to school. Please remove it.

Comcast came into our neighborhood and dug up multiple places in our easement and we’re supposed to replace the sod. It’s been several weeks, no sod and the boxes are still open with wires sticking out everywhere.

Our street was developed 50 years ago with one layer of asphalt. We had a massive leak under the culdesac for years (fixed with a patch last year). I believe that leak lead to the erosion of the drain and road in the photo attached. The hole that is on the right is 8 inches deep, which means when every garbage truck, UPS, FedEx, neighbor makes the turn, one of them will end up with a wheel in a sink hole at some point. With every street in our surrounding neighborhood receiving resurfacing, some even twice in the past few years, I would kindly ask the city to consider helping us as well. It would take less than 6 hours to complete. We have never had anything other than patchworking for our potholes and leaks so we as taxpayers who pay our share for roads would like to see at least a few of our dollars we have paid in for over 50 years be used to help our street. Please and thank you.

Large sunken hole around newer telephone pole between 900 and 902 houses.

There is an electric pole that no longer supplies power that has a red ribbon on it that needs to be removed.

Snapped power pole

A steel guy wire on a utility pole next to the street on the west side, appears improperly anchored. It is bent around and tucked into another section and not anchored. Someone should inspect and correct the condition if necessary.
