Unsafe Buildings

Case Date:
9/8/2014

The house at 1413 w 11th has been vacant and uninhabitable since February. The owner has worked on it maybe two weeks out of that entire time. Six weeks ago he left with his windows and doors wide open and hasn't been back until today when he finally came back and shut the door and "mowed" the front lawn. The back is still overgrown. There are years worth of trash in the back of the property. It goes back 364' and there are tires, insulation boards, a toilet, carpeting, misc plastic debris, etc. all over the woods. There are also birds living in the roof (going in and out via the electrical box) and a groundhog going in and out of his crawlspace. Please do something about this! My property is 4' away from his house and I fear homeless people and drugs will be next. I fully anticipate the owner leaving the house in this continually deteriorating condition unless he is forced to remedy the situation.

The house at the mentioned address burned in April 2018. It has been abandoned since with nothing done to fix or repair. The owner keeps many objects out in the yard and up in the trees. (Many facing neighbors' properties.) The yard has not been kept up with before or since and we (neighbors surrounding this house) are concerned about rodents and other pests that could be attracted to this house. We are also concerned about what it is doing to our property values. It was a tragedy for this house to burn but it has been almost three years and nothing has been done to clean this property up. We hope there is something the City of Bloomington can do to help us with this eyesore and possible hazard to people in the neighborhood.

this home is my next door neighbor, had a fire in 2018, nothing has been done with the property, the yard is out of control. Concerned about me and my other neighbors property value, possibly vermin. The owner shows up occasionally and builds sculptures in the yard out of trash. Can something be done about this? The neighbor on the other side is also very worried. Maybe she's reached out also, don't know. would appreciate some feedback from whomever reads this.

Does anyone know what is going on at 4224 East Penn Ct? This is the home that had the terrible fire damage. It now appears that someone is living there, and are converting it into some sort of art installation/ haunted house. The entire front yard is fenced in, including the driveway. I checked GIS and a sale has not been made since Mark Harper purchased it in 2013. Any insight into what is going on down there would be great. I mean, the windows are all still boarded up. Is someone squatting there??

The City owns TWO Historic Buildings. The Waldron AND The Banneker. One serves white residents. The other serves Black residents. One is getting a $500k renovation. The other desperately needs roof, HVAC, windows, flooring, masonry and drainage repair. Recover forward should honor ALL residents of Bloomington. Black and white. Invest in The Banneker.
