The house at 800 S. Fess Ave. has the most overgrown backyard in the area. 5 foot tall weeds, scrap lumber, stacks of rocks and junk are in this yard, visible from the alley between Henderson and Fess off of First Street.
The sidewalks on South High Street are being obstructed by low-hanging tree branches. These branches hang 3-5 feet above the sidewalks and may be hazardous to walkers and runners. They demand constant ducking and dodging, perhaps even into the street in some cases. The leaves conceal hard branches beneath them, and I have seen several walkers and runners hit their heads.
2611 Round Hill Lane, Bloomington. I understand the City cannot do anything about the overgrown lawn at this address because of the litigation the home owner has filed. But could you at least remove the dead trees and/or limbs that are blocking the sidewalk and could potentially fall on my car? I would think city code 12.24.040 would cover this problem. Additionally, the property owner cut tree limbs from his roof line, left them to drop in a pile so that if the dry conditions return we have a neighborhood fire hazard. I am so far beyond frustrated with this sitution. The property owner is getting a free ride in the litigation with the city, while our neighborhood would have to raise thousands to hire a lawyer and take this unreasonable man to court. I like being able to submit my complaint, but wish I could review my comments, but this web page won't let me scroll back. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Sidewalk between the driveways of 417 & 423 E. University St. is almost unpassable because of encroaching woody plants. Also, sidewalk in front of 423 is encroached by vines, including poison ivy.
I have two issues to report. The first, the previous landlord Tom Gallagher, used the alley behind his rental property, 712 W. 8th St, to dump debris from various repair projects on the property. The current owners have continued to dump their yard waste, as have the people at the northwest corner of Fairview and 8th. It is now impossible to even walk through the alley because the debris is waist high. Twice in the past few weeks the power has gone out due to the weight vines growing on the power lines behind the house. The last outage is costing me almost $500.00 to have my refrigerator repaired after the power surge that occurred when the power came back on. In addition Mr Gallagher constructed a fence in the alley that has made it impossible for trucks or even large cars to pull into my driveway. I have had delivery people who can't or won't attempt to deliver items to my home that were once perfectly doable. Can you please evaluate this situation as this situation has now cost me considerable money in lost services and un-sucessful delivery charges. It is also a home to insects and vermin.
820 w 2nd St, Bloomington, 47403 Excessive growth, unable to see oncoming traffic. Blocking sidewalk.
Overgrown pedestrian traffic light on the south-west corner of E Second (across from the apartment building)
low-hanging tree branches over sidewalk at 1409 S Rogers St bordered by busy street and picket fence, causing peds to duck low. Thank you!
