This home looks abandoned and has garbage everywhere inside and outside of the home. It looks very unsafe. I don't know if anyone lives there but it should be cleaned up although I don't know if the house is salvageable.

House insufficiently sealed - windows broken, could easily be trespassed and used for illicit activities. I was told it would be sealed months ago - it is not sealed. What is the hold up? This house should be razed and the cost added to the tax bill.

House is not inhabited, but has been in the same dilapidated and unsafe state since 2017 when the current owner purchased it. It appears to be used as a storage unit and not a residential property. There are supplies/materials piled up in the front yard, driveway, and garage (there is no garage door). It is very much an eyesore.

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.

There is a low hanging power line over our driveway. The power line is low enough where it blocks people from walking into our backyard. We believe that this is extremely dangerous for people who will walk into our backyard and near our driveway. We are renters and found the power line like this when we moved in a couple weeks ago.

A few of the capstones on the retaining wall out front are precariously hanging close to the edge as a result of long-term, hydrological processes. They look like they are about to fall, especially if someone happens to sit on the wall at that place. Owner of this property is the same as 322 E. 12th, the one with the dangerous sidewalk. He is an out-of-state, absentee landlord who doesn't care about the neighborhood or safety in general. If he is going to be required to fix the sidewalk on 12th, please also require him to attend to this retaining wall. One of the capstones has already fallen and broken. Someone just picked it up off the sidewalk and placed it back on top of the wall without mortar.
