closed: Resolved #185528

Excessive Growth:

Other: Overgrowth from 328 S. Buckner into the alley causing drivers to drive onto my parking area. I am the homeowner. Underneath and hiding in this overgrowth are fence posts, and a drop of several feet from the hidden stone wall, which is almost level with the alley. There’s also scrapes on my car every time I try to back in to my parking space. The residence at 328 South Buckner have lots of overgrowth throughout their property they mow some areas and leave others just going wild with whatever is just growing from the ground not something planted.

https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=185528 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
