The management company has not trimmed the thistle/weeds growing along the driveway and sidewalk and they have become unsightly and hazardous.

We have spoken to our neighbors numerous times about trimming their trees…now the entire Alley behind our house is blocked with fallen trees on power lines & branches on cars parked in our driveway.
Back yard is overgrown with weeds several feet tall, limbs, debris, and fallen tree (since March). Multiple broken trampolines. We've started seeing raccoons and other wildlife from nearby property.
The growth on this wire has caused the bottom wire to sag a lot. Not sure which wire this is or how to tackle the growth. It’s behind my house at 1324 e allendale and between the neighbors.
I noticed the property edge of this 2nd home S of Covenanter Dr has golden bamboo below a utility service line near the next neighbors yard.
Invasives in the right of way, the north property line, and along the creek including privet, poison ivy, burning bush, & multiflora rose.
Overgrown and trash in front and back, dying bamboo into alley, falling down porch.
The property of 1208 S Woodlawn Ave contains Japanese Knotweed. Japanese Knotweed is a city-listed nuisance weed, and in the case of this property the growth is well over 8 inches (more like 5-10 feet) and is visibly spreading into adjacent properties to the west and north by rhizome. The Japanese Knotweed is also visibly growing into that house's siding and foundation. This is likely a rental house situation where the landlord is neglecting the landscaping.
Grass is about a foot high in the yard and bush is over the sidewalk.
There is a City-owned tree in the ROW that is completely covered in vines, some of which are poison ivy. The vines are right next to the sidewalk, and are so high that the vine is going to seed. Is this the responsibility of the adjacent property owner, or does the City attend to its own trees?
