Hoover Public Works

For months, our neighbors yard has been unkept with massive weeds and overgrowth. It has led to increase rodents in the area and impacts the aesthetics of the neighborhood. It is disappointing the city has allowed this to happen, although numerous city employees frequent the area. Additionally, the line of sight is impacted for pedestrians, bikers and drivers as their lot is on a 4 way stop.

Please, please, please put a stop sign and crosswalk at the intersection of 448 Park ave and Rockland. It is extremely dangerous. My family has personally had a couple of very close calls and I have seen numerous others. The intersection is very busy, narrow, on a hill and a curve! There are tons of people and children that use those sidewalks and cross that street from the church parking lot everyday. Please help keep our amazing community safe.
Thank you,
Lacey Carroll

This intersection is in front of a Heritage daycare. Parents including myself walk their kids to school. However, despite the wonderful new sidewalks that were placed recently, there is no crosswalk signaling across ross bridge parkway. Today, despite me jogging across the street with my two child stroller and the way being clear when I began crossing, a speeding SUV decided they wanted to make an impression by not slowing down from an illegally high speed and actually veering closer to me. We bought our home in the Reynold's Landing neighborhood of Ross Bridge so that I could walk my children to the daycare. However, everyday we do, we are placed at an unneccessary risk because this intersection lacks the crosswalk that it clearly should. The assistant director, Tam, of Heritage Preschool is in agreement.

The crosswalk I am requesting would cross ross bridge parkway at the intersection of Melton Rd and connect the two sidewalks on in front of Heritage Preschool of Ross Bridge at: 2700 Ross Bridge Pkwy, Hoover, AL 35226.

I am at resident of the Willow Trace community adjacent to Hunter St., Baptist Church. I also use a wheelchair for mobility. My children and I often take walks across the Hunter Street parking lot over to Emery Drive where we cross Stadium Trace Parkway so that we can access the shops at Stadium Trace Village. There is no curb cut or pedestrian crossing request button at this intersection. As a result, I have to cross when a car enters the turn lane and the signal changes. Once I am on the other side of the intersection I have to climb the hill out in the street instead of being able to access the sidewalk. All of the sidewalks at the top of the hill have the appropriate ADA curb cuts, but the curb at the intersection of Emery Drive and Stadium Trace Parkway does not. I used to drive independently and I am trying to recover my ability to do so, but accessing the shops a Stadium Trace Village provides an outlet for me and for my children. With Village Green coming online in 2022 I think you will have even more foot traffic from the Trace Crossings community attempting to climb that hill. Please consider and make it a priority to make this intersection safe and accessible. Interestingly, the next major intersection has a curb cut and a pedestrian crossing request button. Ideally, a sidewalk would connect these two intersections as well. Thank you for making Hoover a wonderful place to live. I would love to speak with someone about other accessibility issues in the area. Sincerely, Jack Lavallet

The home at this address is in deplorable condition The photo above is of a front window that has been broken for months. Instead of replacing the window, it appears that a stuffed animal and pieces of fabric have been put in place. Another street-facing window used to have a piece of cardboard in it, but that is now gone but the window remains broken. There is and has been for months, trash strewn about the driveway. This is the first house one sees when approaching Shades Crest Rd from Hollister. Home values are negatively effected..

Back in 6/20/2023 I had opened a request asking Amwaste to no longer use their large truck to drive down our driveway. For a short time they started walking down our driveway. Then they went back to driving up and down again with the large truck. They have a smaller F150 or F250 that is fine but they have only used it once. Driving the large heavy truck up and down our driveway has finally cause our driveway shoulder to start crumbling. When I initially reported it the damage was just a crack. Now it has started to crumble.

Trash and junk all around house and inside house

volvo and van are broken down and being used as storage packed to the brim. driveway is covered in clothing, boxes, etc and has been for weeks.

Health and Safety issue that has not been resolved and ongoing for multiple years.

Putting new ceiling tiles up does not fix the problem. Anything short of removing the existing wall covering and inspecting for mold growth would be negligent and not a thorough fix for this ongoing problem.

Roof leak was obviously never repaired

This is my 2nd request for a pick-up. First request was made 2 weeks ago.

The intersection of Moss Rock Road and Kestwick Drive is a three-way intersection, but a two-way stop (the traffic coming UP the hill on Kestwick does not have to stop). The problem is the people coming DOWN the hill on Kestwick are supposed to stop, but they don't. So, as I turn left onto Moss Rock almost every day, I nearly get t-boned by a car flying down the hill on Kestwick that will not stop at his/her stop sign.

One issue: the stop sign is obstructed by brush

Another issue: there is no line painted in the road (or it's heavily-faded) so perhaps people do not know to stop

Proposed solutions: (1) move stop sign or cut brush so that stop sign is visible; (2) paint a line on the road so that people will see it and (hopefully) stop; (3) Hoover police should hide out just around the corner on Moss Rock and write tickets to people who come off that hill and don't stop!
