The street lights are out from Scotland west to Branner and have been since they finished new construction of storm drains.

Street lights are out all along the west end of Seward Ave on the north side. These pictures were taken when it was dark enough for other dawn to dusk lights to be on.

Picture 1 shows the alley behind my house. Picture 2 shows standing water at my neighbor's that is right over where a sink hole was repaired 2 or 3 years ago. Picture 3 is showing the rest of the T alley south towards Greeley. Obviously these alleys need to be graded.

The overlay done on the streets in Oakland looks horrible! It looks like they didn't roll it after it was poured. The worst I've seen, so far is the 400 block of Freeman. These pictures show the 300 block of Scotland where they completely covered the cement gutters, including covering part of the storm drain grate. They left a dip next to the concrete alley behind the Pizza Parlor, so water stands in it. The third picture shows how the surface isn't smooth. It's in the 300 block of Wilson, where they didn't cover the gutters, but it looks so sloppy. I can't believe the city hired someone who does such shoddy work. Seward Avenue shows how good it can be. I can't stress enough how completely horrible the side streets look! Please go look at Freeman between Division and Seward. It makes me sick to see how completely awful it is!

There are actually a few, but the most bothersome is one when the driver turns right onto Twiss the left front wheel goes into a pothole. Because of this tight corner, it is hard to miss it.

The side of the shed on the alley behind the house has been tagged.

The back of the Pizza Parlor has been tagged, now.

Graffiti on the west side of the pizza parlor and on a truck parked in the parking lot of a building on Wilson and Seward. I have seen another such sign in the neighborhood somewhere else. This looks like a wannabe to me, but it is still concerning.
