The stop sign at the intersection of Linn and Owens was completely covered by trees going both directions. There should be something done about that tree. They cut it after Mike was killed but its already growing back again and blocks the view of the stop sign. There have been numerous accidents there.

There have been numerous accidents at the intersection of Linn and Owens. A tree was blocking the stop sign both north and south. They cut it since Mike was killed but it's growing back already.
