Lots of poison ivy growing into sidewalk on 1st.
Lots of poison ivy growing into sidewalk on 1st.
Lack of pruning, or care, of flora on property. Ground cover, invasive plants, weeds, vines, grow onto public sidewalk area, and onto surrounding private properties, along the property lines.
Plants on SW corner of lot have overgrown to a point that the sidewalk is now impassible.
Theres is excessive growth of bushes and branches all over this lot. In the summer, there is poison ivy and the overgrowth blocks the sidewalk. There is also a dead tree leaning towards the neighbouring house. This is a concern because a tree next to this one fell during the December storm. The lot address does not have a number: it is on W Cottage Grove Av between 1208 and 1212.
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.
On the north side of E Cottage, in the middle of number 805 (the house is to the right, a vacant area is to the left, but it's all 805) there is poison ivy on a tree on private property near the sidewalk.
East Morningside Drive. One yard on south side has had limb branch pile out for months if you can request remove. Also further down the sidewalk is impeded by overhanging limbs and would be AWESOME if you can ask they cut them.
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 about a foot high in the yard and bush is over the sidewalk.
