Why are pedestrian pathway lights not coming on at Villano Park? The Park is very dark at 4:30 this time of year and feels unsafe.

The newly installed Island on Howard Drive Between house #'s 227 & 228 has never been mowed! The grass is in excess of 3' with weeds growing out of control.

Good evening, my name is Melissa. I live with my boyfriend at the Canal Crossing Apts off of Mather Street. As I'm sure you're aware, there are the lakes/ponds down the road/in the back of the apt complex. Surrounding that pond/lake is a barbed wire fence. Last night/early this morning, my bf & I listened to horrible sounds coming from that direction. We thought it was a Bobcat or some animal stalking at night. Nope. It was a poor deer stuck in the unnecessary barbed wire fence. I would like to figure how out to remove that barbed wire fence and replace it with a safer one that protects the animals & even humans, but also keeps that area secure. We do not need barbed wire fence to encompass the perimeter of the pond/lake. I hope you take this matter seriously as we are not the only ones inhabiting this earth- animals are just as important. I cannot believe there was nothing to do to help that deer- animal control does not have emergency hours as well. I hope to hear from you soon. Regardless, I will keep following up on this is until there is an adequate solution.
Thank you in advance for your time,
Melissa Garbe

Safety issue for pedestrians and bikers on Treadwell between Leeder Hill and Farmington Canal trail. Overgrown weeds, brush along street a d water company property needs cutting back. Overhangs into the road in some areas for ing bikers and pedestrians out further into the street.

There is an abandoned vehicle parked on the east side of Edgehill Rd next to Edgerton Park. It is a white van with a bike rack on the back and rusted hubcaps. It has been parked in the same spot for at least eight weeks.

Last night 9:30 t0 11:00 cars with loud mufflers sound like they are racing. I want someone to look into what is going on. I pay a lot of taxes and I want whatever this is to be stopped.
This occurs on Sherman ave

I cannot contact this cemetery, I have tried the posted number and it does not work

There has been a truck parked overnight on Dixwell ave across from Hillcrest and adjacent to Haig St. There are no parking signs there and I don't want trucks to think they can start parking there again. This was a huge problem not thar long ago and it should not be allowed to start up again. Word seems to travel fast among truckers about where it is OK to park their trucks overnight. They should at least get tickets when parked there and that does not seem to happen
Please don't let this problem start up again.

Cars again with loud mufflers on Sherman ave. It sounds like racing. Police need to pass through this area.

Apartment building with no hot water for 2 days. Zero response from apartment complex management, zero communication. Another building in complex also without hot water. Families are boiling water to bathe their children. This is unacceptable.
