Abandoned cars stripped of parts - 3 - in car park

Corner of Bryden Terrace and Wadsworth extremely dark. There needs to be a bright street light on the corner or street lamps a block away should be brighter. With the recent home burglary, the corner is so dark that my ring camera cannot make out images. Please come through the corner at night
To witness how dark it is.

Large tree logs on side of Gaylord Mountain Road running north to West Todd Street these are logs and trees from previous storms never picked up some of these logs have made their way to the edge of the road winter plowing will damage plow trucks also a safety hazard to passing vehicles on the road

A town vehicle hit my mailbox and as a result I am not able to get mail delivered. Please contact me with the process to get this resolved.

Dropped off brush, intending to pick up some leaf compost on same trip. Informed that leaf mulch was not available due to the machine needing some parts...

There is a need for speed bumps on Gorham Ave. This is a school zone and cars do not abide by the speed limit. There have been numerous cars struck and animals killed. Please take action to prevent a person from being struck. The Hamden police and Traffic Div previously stated it is not in the budget however other areas have had speed bumps installed. Each area of this town, be it Northern or Southern Hamden, deserves the same protections and safety.

Every year since we moved here in 2005 an ice floe forms at the intersection of Leatherman Trail and Fans Rock Road. The water flows down the hill, and from the even side of LT and misses the drain at the end. Busses, cars and people have slid on this ice. Repeated requests to have the drain moved when streets were being repaved went unanswered. There is not NEW spring that cropped up and caused this. Our youngest daughter was in 8th grade when we moved here. Her bus slid backwards on Fans Rock and as she tried to step up onto the bus she almost slid under the bus. So, each time is snows or sleets or there is a quick freeze after rain, can DPW please dump extra sand & salt on this spot. Thank you.

Street lights excessively bright.
These new lights UI is putting in are bananas bright, like not being able to sleep with the windows open on nice cool nights bright. While this is primarily a complaint to UI, the town needs to know about it as a quality of life issue for townspeople

Near Knollwood and Willow in Christian Rendeiro Park.
The sign has been torn from the posts.
It has been down for quite a few weeks.

Lane Street starting a Dunbar Hill school to Clover Cir needs speed bumps. All hours of the night, cars drive like they are on a highway. It is very dangerous for elementary school children who walk home along these streets, when cars and motorcycles are flying by. This is not safe for the children in our community.
