Description
There are bushes on the Gage facing side of the property that make it difficult for drivers to see if cars are coming while turning. This property is a rental. I called Rental Management Solutions asking if I can go trim the branches since I live nearby, but the lady was very rude and refused to even ask the owners.

the only thing the city can do is cut the brush back for the sidewalk.
Thank you.
