Tree in the front yard has branches hanging down over the sidewalk. Owner needs to trim the branches.
Tree in the front yard has branches hanging down over the sidewalk. Owner needs to trim the branches.
Sidewalk is completely blocked by overgrowth of what appears to be a box elder (?) Tree is right on the property line between 412 (CFC) and 418 (Brawley).
The individual failed to maintain her yard last year and it got cut one time all summer. It has not been cut this year and is already high thigh/waist high. Making it hard to walk the sidewalk as it’s intended.
Grass is knee-high, degraded sidewalk is treacherous, nasty couch sitting on porch and trash bins laying around out front. The place is an eyesore.
Recurring problem. See #184772, #177627, #184699, #184577, etc. Actual address not clear, as it is on the property line of two lots. Plants are overgrown into the sidewalk along the south side of Cottage Grove just east of Grant Street. Pedestrians need to use that side of the street to avoid the fraternity in the apartment building on the north side of the street.
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.

Front yard bushes are overgrown, impeding sidewalk foot traffic.
Has not mowed in 6 weeks, overgrowth on our property and all around fence line. Excessive growth around the house and inside the fence. Weeds over 6ft tall. Reported twice last year. In addition, not once cleaned off the sidewalk for snow. I will report this this year as well.
