Dave's Corner 💭
My in-laws celebrated a 40 year wedding anniversary yesterday. That's great longevity. 10 presidential terms. Coincidentally, 2021 is also the 40th anniversary of the release of MS-DOS, the topic of our latest podcast episode.

Homeowner has a refrigerator in the front yard that had been there over 2 months as well as boxes and garbage from a kitchen remodel. The trash is now blowing into the neighbors properties. I am concerned about pests (rats) taking up residence in the debris.

- Traffic Calming - Flynn Ave near Wells St
Are there any traffic calming measures being planned for this block of Flynn? If not, can you share with me what the process is for requesting measures be put in place? My husband, seven-year-old twins and I almost got hit by a car when crossing today, at a crosswalk. I’d love to lead the charge in getting additional lights and another additional crosswalk + lights so that my family and friends can have some help in slowing down the traffic in this area. A stern look only goes so far.

- Street Pavement Condition
Hello! This isn't a "pavement" issue, but rather a "street condition" issue. There is a great deal of broken glass over a long stretch of Crescent Road (up from Prospect Parkway and down from Woodcrest Lane). I picked up the larger pieces of glass that I could, but was unable to clean up the majority of it because it's A LOT of small pieces of broken glass over a long stretch of road. It's not safe to walk children or dogs in this area, and this area normally gets a lot of foot traffic. Could the city please send the street cleaning machine to clean Crescent Road?
