Ok Beth but After the highway bridge there are
NO!!!!!!!!! sidewalks. There are no curbs there are no
storm drains. There are holes in the street. I guess we
will have to fall again and sue the city or wait until
electon time to get anything done.

As I stated to Beth there are no!!!!!!!!!!!! sidewalks
after the bridge. There are no curbs there are no sidewalks and no storm drains on that corner.
There are nothing bu holes and cracks. Which is were I fell. I will sue the next time I fall in the street./
I guess nothing will be done until election time

Terrence st. and Campbell st pothole is bad wayne

No nothing has been fixed. You chould go by there today. No place to cross W. Spring and Stevens,
Puddles and potholes every where. No storm drains.
They are desperatly needed. I think I will have to call
channel 8 news to get anything done. We pay taxes and
cant get anything done to our streets. It terrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The issue about Stevens St and West Spring is an on going issue. When the cars are parked you have to walk in the street. I fell again on Stevens due to a
hole the was covered by a puddle of water. As I stated in my first message, the there are no sidewalks after the highway bridge. There are no storm drains and no curb stones. When I fell I was out in the middle of the street. I am going to channel 8 news to report this.

still not fixed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It probably won't get fixed until election time

Dear Janice, Beth and Everyone else following this issue:

Here is a photograph from the same point in the street as the previous one, but facing the other direction. Instead of facing the bus coming across the bridge, this photo looks down Stevens Ave towards Shumway St. You can see that the point where the sidewalk ends on the right, and that there is no sidewalk on the left. Is there anything we can do make this area more pedestrian friendly? Also, Janice, I completely understand your concerns regarding the lack of drainage, but I believe that installing storm drains is an expensive and time-consuming process. Perhaps one of the engaged citizens following this thread will have some helpful suggestions. In any case, I agree with you that this area can definitely be improved, and I'm hoping to renew the debate on what exactly we can do.

Maybe you can at least have the people in the houses on shumway and the other houses that have
thier yards on Stevens cut some of the tree branches and clean up the debree so that people can walk by. I know this is not kelsey ave or by the
beach area, but we do pay taxes as well and we should be able to walk to work without have to worry about falling or getting a tree branch in our eye. The tree branches also hide the street signs.

Ah my photo was lost. Here it is:

and there are a few more photos which show that there really isn't any place to walk down this street:

And here's the other side of the street:

this isssue has nt been fixed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

problem still!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!not fixed. I guess becuase it's not election time yet.

No it has not been fixed. I fell again on the big pot holes in the street.
