FAIRWOOD FOREST and Nearby areas

DUCK ATTACKS.

This duck lives at this lake and has been frequently seen at where the pin in the map is.

But it also will walk up to Fairwood Ave at times.

Neighbors were comparing notes last night and there has been 3 attacks, that we know of, in the past week or two.

No babies involved. The attacks were at opposite ends of the lake.

All events ended with the duck biting on legs and then following the victims as they try to go in their homes for safety.

This duck has a bite that is similar to a crab claw.
It will not let go of your leg even after you are kicking it.

Neighbors have tried to fight it off with brooms, kicks, whipping it with leashes.

It has been known to run up behind you and attack.

Would Pinellas like to get rid of this duck or should the neighbors do it the old fashion way?

No one is taking responsible for maintaining these weeds.

As you can see from the pic, it has now grown over the sidewalk.

This pic is on the West Side of Fairwood Ave (across from the retirement center) and at the property edge for Park Place Apt.

Thank you.

Carpet padding and other debris has been dumped in front of 129 E. Virginia Ln,, Clearwater , FL by resident after Hurricane Irma. Been out there since September 2017. Since address is in unincorporated Pinellas county, unless it's in a trash can it doesn't get picked up!!

The sidewalk between fairwood forest Dr & park place apartments is over growing onto sidewalk. Will be difficult to pass soon.

Please check the corner ROW at FF Dr. &
Fairwood ave.

It's too many weeds to walk right next to since it's a good place for larger critters to hide.

Tree and other plants waste on property. In addition to this incident. They left a mattress on this property that eventually was picked up however was dumped on the 741 Fairwood Forest Drive address.

We have potholes that are new as well as some that have already been patched and are becoming holes again. They are beginning to get bigger and soon will become a hazard.

Our street, to our knowledge, has never been repaved. Considering the neighborhood was established in 1984 it would be fantastic if we could get the road repaved instead of just continually patching potholes as they appear.

We are in the process of making improvements for the overall appearance of our community, new sign, lighting, etc., and a freshly paved road would make it all come together.

As you can see in the picture this house seems to be vacant and no one is taking care of the loan. Thank you.

Speed Control Round-Abouts are located on the north end of Fairwood Avenue and they look awesome!
GREAT JOB!

Are there any plans to install them on the south end by the disc golf parks and Fairwood Forest?

We constantly see drivers going 10 or more miles over the speed limit. Also, the beautiful peacocks are being ran over as a result of the speeders.

Thank you.

This intersection is becoming very dangerous.since city of Clearwater added traffic control to the south this area seems to be the makeup cut though.I have seen cars blow through at over 50 mph.
I am requesting speed control measures on
East Virginia,East and west Grapefruit and Calomonden.
These streets have many little children and it’s not a matter of if but when a child is dead
Please help make our neighborhood safer thank you

We have horrible mosquitoes in the community of Brigadoon, it is worse with the building by kapok park. If we could get our community fogged we would be most grateful!

Fairwood Forest Residents are complaining that friends, family (and homeowners at times) can not see our entrance or the Fairwood Forest Sign.

We are concerned that emergency vehicles will not see it at night either.

There IS a meter behind the sign that is assigned to 701 Fairwood, but no lights attached to it.

We do not have an HAO to pay for it.

Does the city help out neighborhoods in this situation?
Even if installing some simple solar spot lights for the sign?

There is a streetlight - but it lights up the street but not the sign.

FYI, a donation has been collected for us to make cosmetic changes to the sign including painting (which should be completed by the end of October 2016).

I say this in the event structural changes may be made by the city.

Thank you,

Your Friends of Fairwood Forest

a tee fell at 1201 hollywood during irma. It is blocking the entire sidewalk for the length of the house (nearly in the street). Homeowner has not addressed.
