Excessive growth of weeds, including poison ivy, hanging over the retainer wall onto the sidewalk, exposing pedestrians.
Excessive growth of weeds, including poison ivy, hanging over the retainer wall onto the sidewalk, exposing pedestrians.
Yard is incredibly overgrown with weeds a foot to two feet tall.
The Side walk on the west side of the street is over grown with weeds making it difficult to walk on the sidewalk.
Grass is way too tall.
On the south side of E Cottage Grove, between numbers 714 and 712, there is poison ivy (among the other vines) on a tree on private property not too far from the sidewalk. The house in the photo is 712, but upon looking at the maps and street view, I think the tree is on the 714 property. I figure I can leave that to you to figure out officially.
There is a utility pole at the SW corner of this property (by the alley) that is completely covered in vines, most, perhaps all of which are poison ivy. The vines are right next to the alley and tenant parking lot and are so high up (25+ feet) that the vine is going to seed. Is this the responsibility of the adjacent property owner, or do the utility companies maintain their poles? If the latter, do we have to wait the 5-year cycle for them to come by and do the trimming, or will they come by if someone requests it? And if so, how do we contact the utility which bears the responsibility?
Lawn has not been mowed in weeks. The grass is extremely long. Looks like a mess.
Landlord not mowing. Overgrowth
Yard growth is completely covering sidewalk entrance
Overgrowth of foliage and brush from the property at 701 N Woodlawn Ave extends into the sidewalk and poses a hazard to pedestrians and passerby. Google Maps lists the property as bearing the addresses 701, 703 & 705; or 829 E Cottage Grove Ave.
