Representative Chavez, I am a resident of cedar grove, and I am assuming you must reside in the area to become our Representative. Have you noticed the huge weeds growing in the medians on Midway. Some are covering the visibility of on coming cars at the lights of Mimosa and Midway. These medians have never looked so bad as they do now. Hope you can do something to clean this up. It's pretty embarrassing to get off the border highway and see how unkept this area is to include Knights
