DESCRIPTION
Hello Pinellas,

There are two light poles down on East Lake Road between Tampa Rd and Sandy Point.They have been down now for three weeks. Also a tree is down by one of the poles!We have reached out to Duke but they have not complied maybe with your help we can get these removed this was reported 12/23/2018

We reported a problem with the sewer/manhole in front of 146 Annwood Road on 7/21. Two workers came out looked at the manhole, commented “All manholes smell” and left. Is this true? Do all 20,000 manholes in Pinellas County smell? Having experience with Civil Engineering, land development, and drainage, that has not been my experience. This manhole has not smelled like a dead body for the 20 years I have lived in this house. Perhaps this is an environmental issue and I am asking the County to fix the problem in error. During rainy season this sewer often backs up into the Brooker Creek which feeds into Lake Tarpon and Tampa Bay. It would seem the time to fix the issue is now before that happens. The two lazy individuals that made such a ridiculous comment and lacked the interest to take ownership and fix the problem should be held accountable and reminded our tax dollars pay their salaries.

Someone needs to look at the timing of this light. It is causing huge backups for miles north and south bound for about a week now without any accidents being involved.

Our condo (L building) of 1200 Tarpon Woods Blvd. is constantly exposed to excessive traffic noise because we are only about 100 feet away from East Lake Rd. Trucks, motorcycles, poorly mufflered cars, etc. contribute to a nerve jarring din. Hopefully future improvements to Eastlake Rd near Tarpon Woods Blvd will include a noise abatement barrier. Your consideration will be appreciated.

Brooker Creek behind Annwood Road & through Tarpon Woods development and golf course needs to be dredged It has been about 15 years since it was last cleaned out Sand bars and debris has accumulated and is visible with low wat and lack of rain lately The flooding of our yards is getting worse/faster each year due to the accumulation This creek flooding and not draining impacts all of Tarpon Woods er

New Shell Station needs some type of signal, signage or caution lines to indicate cars exiting carwash. It's a blind drive type situation. I've already seen 2 close calls with exiting vehicles from car wash and general traffic going thru parking area. Thank you.

This intersection needs to have the actual travel lanes / roadway marked with DO NOT BLOCK striping and lettering. There are already signs prohibiting this, but nobody obeys them making it extremely dangerous to enter and exit the Brookers Landing neighborhood. There have been two crashes there in the past couple of weeks from this problem.

The photo attached is from the MUTCD showing some options we would like you to consider. This continues to be a long time and recurring complaint from our residents and HOA, so addressing this with some roadway markings may easily reduce the flood of complaints that will probably start to come to the traffic department and sheriffs office since the current signs are not being enforced. A few miles north of us on East Lake road, a similar uncontrolled intersection has prominent roadway markings and lettering for a golf/country club neighborhood.
