We had a water damaged appartement and after 5 long days of staying in it we got moved to another unit. We were told pest control came for 2-3 cockroaches in the sink. We moved in and in the evening turns out it’s a whole infestation. They came from the dishwasher which was flooded and full of water in the back with many cockroaches there. There are babies which indicates a clear infestation and that they reproduce fast. They did not just stay in kitchen but started running everywhere. In the bathroom, in both bedrooms, in the hallway and living room. We had to move out in the middle of the night to our old water damaged unit at 1am. We received no confirmations that pest control has been conducted and that the situation was fixed before the unit could be rented to us. The only thing signing at this is the paper traps in the appartement (there is 4 of them). The cockroaches appeared in the evening but there was still daylight (5-6pm) which indicates a bigger colony than initial 2-3 cockroaches as we were told. Even with the light on at 10pm they were out in the kitchen and in other rooms too until midnight, moment when we started to pack to leave for the night.

What appears to be a sinkhole or chasm has opened on my driveway. Under the small hole that developed on the surface, there appears to be 2-3 feet deep and at least 5 feet wide beneath. I'm concerned about damage to others' property as my driveway is shared with 418 Hillside. I'd like to at least get this area restricted to prevent accidents.

I'd like to request a Code Enforcement inspection of the property on Kendall Road where the trailer explosion occurred last summer. The damaged structure remains boarded up approximately one year later. Since then, the property appears to be used for long-term outdoor storage, including a large trailer and other oversized items. The lot increasingly resembles a storage yard rather than a residential property. Given the condition of the boarded structure, the continued presence of the large trailer, and the ongoing outdoor storage of large items, I am requesting that the City determine whether the property complies with applicable property maintenance, nuisance, and residential zoning requirements. If the trailer and other stored items are permitted, I would appreciate clarification as to how this use complies with residential zoning standards.

This house has so much garbage and debris on their porch and property it seems dangerous. Google map this location and the picture shows the issue (and it's even worse now). Recently the garage roof has caved in and nothing has been done about it. There are sharp objects, a gas tank in the yard, and junk everywhere. Is there anything that can be done to clan up the situation? Thank you.

House not maintained from top to bottom. It is falling apart and extremely junked. Strange activity at all hours… it’s a shame cob ignores anything on west side. It’s disgusting how trashy the city is.
