I made an on-site inspection at this location today. The homeowner came out and informed me that she is currently working with the City on a program for repair of the sidewalk. I made a call to the department that is working with them and left a message with my contact information and the constituents contact information. We also discussed the tree limbs that are blocking pedestrian path of travel. She said that they will trim one of the trees. I will follow up with a site visit on Tuesday to insure that the tree trim is complete. The tree in the City ROW will be cut back by the City. I will contact forestry.

Sincerely,

Yvonne Howland

Good day, I spoke City of Topeka Forestry. They went out and trimmed the tree in the ROW. I conducted another inspection and spoke with the constituent residing at the residence and confirmed they had trimmed back the tree branches that were their responsibility. I do not manage the curb and gutter program, the 50/50 program, so I have no idea what arrangements have been made or if they have been made. I am dispatching this back to my direct supervisor, who also does not manage those programs but may support him in managing this to be completed. Another option is that you can call the (785)368-3842 number and ask for the person who manages those programs. He should be able to tell you if
agreements are made and an approximant schedule e.g. after the first of the year.

Thank you for submitting your concern to the City.

Together we can build a better community,

Yvonne Howland

On-site inspection was conducted 2/20/2024 and pictures for verification taken. I constructed an e-mail and submitted it to my direct supervisor on 2/20/24. With this information he will be able to move this along to Code Enforcement.

Thank you in advance for your patience,

Yvonne Howland
