Excessive Growth:

Other: This overgrowth is right behind my business at 418 S. Walnut St. and is becoming a bit excessive. Not only is it overgrown, but many of the trees have heavy limbs that are surrounding electric wires leading to building and I or my customers are in danger of parking under these areas. Also, the area has become extremely littered with trash, homeless sleeping and congregating within the overgrowth and I've found many syringes/caps while trying to clean up the 418 property which ends at the wall here. This also has lead to more trash and debris clogging up a drain that is behind the Players Pub business and is becoming unsightly. What I would like to see is this entire hill cleaned up and trees removed and planted with grass. Please let me know of any questions or concerns with getting this taken care of. Thank you.

https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=172503 Opened by Anonymous Dear Constituent: Thank you for submitting information to us via uReport. We value your input and hope that we will be able to address your questions and concerns. HAND neighborhood compliance officers will inspect the property and determine if the weeds, grass or plants are in violation of the Bloomington Municipal Code 6.06.070 (a). In the event of a violation, the neighborhood compliance officer will issue a Notice of Violation (NOV) to the property owners via first class mail and by placing a copy of the notice of violation on the property. The original Notice of Violation may be a warning or may include fines with a graduated scale from $50.00 - $150.00, and will be issued in accordance with Bloomington Municipal Code 6.06.070 (a). If the property is a rental property and it is the tenants' responsibility to maintain the lawn, the landlord must provide a copy of the signed lease to HAND during the initial seven days following the issuance of the NOV, otherwise the Landlord will remain responsible for paying the fine. After the Notice of Violation is issued, the property owner and/or tenant has seven (7) days to bring the property into compliance. If the property is not brought into compliance within the initial seven (7) days, the inspector may go to daily tickets. Please be mindful of this process while we work with your neighbors to resolve this issue. Thank you, HAND staff
