Grass/weeds overgrown. Also tall weeds coming from curb and cracks in street.
The yard at 1005 w !st Street has not been mowed all season. Weeds and vines are encroaching onto property at 1007 W 1st Street.
Tick heaven. There is no. It is nothing but invasive honeysuckle and weeds. I have to keep cutting it back on my property line because it continues to infringe. There are 5 children living in that house. That's their business to run the run of lyme disease and West Nile, but I don't like it being a spawning ground near me. And now the CDC has released a report about these "kissing bugs." The City code refers to "noxious weeds." They got 'em.

Grass is overgrown. Overgrowth covers speed limit sign on west side of property and is growing out into the street.
The next door neighbor has not cut his grass yet this year and has not cut it in previous years
When trying to make a turn from Orris Dr onto W. 11th St, the excessive growth from this home obscures the view enough to where a driver has to stick the nose of his/her car all the way out on 11th to be able to see if the way is clear. Obviously, this is dangerous. It could cause an accident with cars, schools busses running to and from Tri-North, or any pedestrian walking down the sidewalk - which, in and of itself, is obscured.
This report is in reference to serious overgrowth on a City right-of-way on the corner of N. Oolitic St. and W. 11th St. The property that this right-of-way is connected to is 1508 W. 11th St. The owner of this property is/was Joseph E. Day. However, he is recently deceased. At this time, the property is in the process of repossession by BB&T Bank. I know that in usual circumstances, Joe may have been responsible for the care of this area. However as I stated, he is now deceased. I have been trying to contact BB&T Bank - I actually may have an interest in purchase of the property since I own the vacant adjoining lots - but have gotten absolutely no response. In the mean time, the overgrowth on the City right-of-way that is on the west edge of his property is growing out into Oolitic St, has grown to the point of obscuring the speed limit sign, and is covering a fire hydrant. I am hoping that, given the circumstances, the City could come and mow/cut/clear that area. The main backyard is inside a fence, but this small section along Oolitic St has been left outside the fence. Thank you, Anthony Eller
