Yard looks ready for hay bales. Reoccurring entire growing season.
I am concerned about lack of yard & home maintenance at the southwest corner of Woodlawn and 1st Street. The yard is overgrown with weeds and shrubs are overhanging the Woodlawn sidewalk.
This property immensely violates the City code regarding overgrowth of the yard and landscaping. In fact, the public sidewalk attached to this property that runs along 16th Street is practically impassable. There is barely a walkable path where the sidewalk should be.
I have contacted this rental home's management company (Brawley) twice about a DANGEROUS situation. There are 5 DEAD Ash Trees in the yard and TWO are threatening my home at 2825 Blue Slopes. These trees are dropping very large branches both during storms and more increasingly during rather calm days as well. These trees are both near our home as they are very near the property line. They need to be removed before they do serious damage. I cannot get any response from the management company.
Front yard of this house was never seeded for a lawn after the house was built. The current owner has never mowed the property and it's now grown up with huge weeds. This is not one of those yards planted to create a natural area of native plants. Nothing at all has been done here except to let weeds grow.
Grass is very high and there is a pile of trash in driveway. Only been there for 2 months now
Please send someone out to cut the weeds on S. Ford Avenue in Bloomington. You cannot pull out onto Ralston Drive from Ford and see if any cars are coming from the right due to all the weeds. This is every year, you would think it could get taken care of without people living on the road having to make numerous calls and letters. You can't even pass a car on the road due to the weeds! I will be going up the chain of command with this issue.
Why are these people allowed to have 4ft talk grabs and half a tree fallen over on the power lines for more than a month?! This is ridiculous
bamboo has again encroached on sidewalk. Weeds growing up in gaps on sidewalk make the sidewalk impassible. Pedestrians must walk in 6th Street to get past this house. Cars approaching the intersection on Elm Street must pull into the street to see if traffic is traveling east on 6th. This is a recurrent problem and was not handled by the city the last time I complained. This is plain and simple neglect.
