Sorry, our mistake. The inspector found no violations on this property at this time. They will continue to keep a watch on the property in case things decline to a point of a violation.

Dog attacking 2 women with strollers Archived

2432 Remington Rd. Raleigh, NC - East Raleigh

A brown pitbull charged two women who were walking babies in strollers at around 11:30 am today. The pitbull came running out from 2432 (not necessarily the owner's home) into the middle of the street and charged the women. Both women turned to face the dog keeping their kids away as the dog began to run at one of the women she sprayed pepper spay and the dog ran away. While not all pitbulls are bad dogs, this one seemed particularly violent and persistent and unfortunately is running around the neighborhood.

Please note that this is part of a chronic, widespread problem in this area that recently received attention in the News & Observer: http://www.newsobserver.com/2012/03/31/1975121/dog-attacks-plague-raleigh-neighborhood.html

We need the city to take action! Help us, please!

The City Council brought this up during the meeting yesterday. This is being looked in to.

It is not really an appropriate issue to address via SeeClickFix. It is appropriate to contact the Police regarding loose animals.

We will close this issue on SeeClickFix as it is receiving attention. Thanks for taking the time to report.

Pedestrians and Bikes can't cross Archived

101 Donald Ross Dr Raleigh, NC - East Raleigh

There is no signal actuation for pedestrians or bicyclists at this intersection. You can only actuate the signal in a car. The loop detector on the minor street doesn't pick up bicycles. It is very dangerous to cross, especially because of the vehicle turn phases on New Bern. The city should go out here and look at it because I don't think it's set up properly. At the very least, there should at least be a button to push.

It's been there all weekend. Stopped to check it out. Hope it isn't a neighbor with a broken down vehicle. If it were mine, I would've left a note or something. It happens a lot though. Just want to find the owner and make sure it's moved before an accident occurs.

Yep, I saw it for the first time today on my way home. There's so many cars that will sit there for days. My husband bikes to work and will report it after 5 days, which was our plan for this gray sedan. We both remarked how that corner just has some "bad juju." No parking signs could hopefully prevent vehicles from parking there for safety concerns. Thanks for reporting, usually folks leave a note or hang a rag out if it's inoperable.

Creating a no parking zone at this intersection requires city council approval, and the request has to come from the affected property owner, in this case, WakeMed. Double parking on any city street is illegal and can be reported to the police at the time of the occurrence for enforcement. Just dial 911 if you see this happening out there.

Even though this street shows as a city street? There are a few generic no parking signs about 1 foot high, but nothing official.

2011-02-14 · Flag Flagged
City of Raleigh

Yes, our policy is that any change in on-street parking regulations that immediately affects an abutting property owner must be requested by that property owner. We have not had good experience in the past with requests by others that affect parking adjacent to a property. Generally the property owner will oppose the action and the Council will choose not to do it. They have set this policy so that the Council only considers regulation changes that actually are likely to be approved.
