Excessive growth sidewalks
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.
This overgrowth is right behind my business at 418 S. Walnut St. and is becoming a bit excessive. Not only is it overgrown, but many of the trees have heavy limbs that are surrounding electric wires leading to building and I or my customers are in danger of parking under these areas. Also, the area has become extremely littered with trash, homeless sleeping and congregating within the overgrowth and I've found many syringes/caps while trying to clean up the 418 property which ends at the wall here. This also has lead to more trash and debris clogging up a drain that is behind the Players Pub business and is becoming unsightly. What I would like to see is this entire hill cleaned up and trees removed and planted with grass. Please let me know of any questions or concerns with getting this taken care of. Thank you.
I rent a home from Olympus Properties. Lawn service is included in my lease, but I am having trouble getting them to mow the lawn. I have called them twice about this, both times grass is 10-12 inches high. This will be the third time. It had been 3+ weeks since it's been mowed. I let them know about the city ordinance, but am still having issues. Thank you for your help.
The lot is overgrown and attracting bugs and animals. Making it impossible for kids to play outside.
Resident’s lawn is overgrown well beyond a foot tall
This property is a disaster.Neighbors realize the city is limited as to what it can enforce but these residents are allowing invasive weeds to grow all along the street which must be a violation of some code. On the rare occasion they do mow, they allow lawn clippings to pile up in the street and leave them there to blow away or go down the storm drain. Look in the drain, please. Their weeds need to be eradicated for the sake of all surrounding neighbors. I believe they have been repeatedly warned about not mowing. When they do mow, it is ONLY the area at the curb which we all assume is your only jurisdiction; however, their backyard is so over-grown it can't help but be a breeding ground for vermin. Seriously, please help the Blue Ridge neighborhood with all you can. It gets worse every year. Pics were taken but won't load.
Not clear which address to use. City-created, grassy area in traffic-control sidewalk extension into the street needs mowing. SW corner of Grant/9th. Is this the responsibility of adjacent property owners? If so, would that be Plantation North Apartments, apparently now being referred to as "Campus Walk North" (CRE Rentals)?
