I am old enough to remember that the building on the southwest corner of the S Rogers and Country Club Road intersection used to be a real business and they kept their property clean and safe. Now the property appears abandoned and is a hazard to the people of Bloomington. The lot vegetation is out of control. The building should be designated condemned by the city. It is covered with graffiti and could become a place where a person on the B-line to the east could be abducted and assaulted under cover. What can be done about this horrific eyesore in the midst of all the re-development and revitalization in the area?

There is a window by the grass and the parking lot (on right side of building near the dumpsters/ally). There is tons of glass that is a hazard to my dog and others in the community who use this area to let their dogs go to the bathroom (there are at least 5 I know that use this space). The glass is very dangerous and has been ignored. There is also tons of trash in this grass left by workers fixing this building.

West end of the retaining wall on north side of the property (Cottage Grove side) has degraded so much so that the capstone is no longer supported by underlaying stone and could fail if any significant pressure is placed on it, such as someone sitting or stepping on it. It is adjacent to the former driveway.

I am not sure what the owner of this building has planned, but it seems there has seem some slow work done to the house since my husband and I have bought and renovated our home a year and a half ago. In this time, we have seen animals come and go from this abandoned house, seemingly homeless people come and go from the basement and the windows boarded up. This home is in utter disarray. With so many homes in the prospect hill area being renovated and maintaining the historical feel, this is one of the few if not the only home that is a major eye sore on our neighborhood. I am not sure if there can be anything done legally to motivate the owner to do renovations more quickly or to just tear it town. Any thoughts would be very much appreciated to address this problem. Thank you very much for your time and consideration!
