Yard needs mowed.
Yard needs mowed.
Overgrown lawn and downed tree limbs.
Resident’s lawn is overgrown well beyond a foot tall
Grass is about a foot high in the yard and bush is over the sidewalk.
Lawn has not been mowed this spring. Grass is very tall.
The grass is not being maintained at this location next to our property. The grass regularly reaches nearly 12 inches high before it is mowed maybe once a month.
Grass has not been cut all year. Almost up to the Christmas lights.
Grass not cut. Trash thrown in yard and left there (paper, cardboard, broken furniture items) trash can overflowing in driveway (always). Their chickens running around in neighbors' yards.
Property is so overgrown with invasive, noxious plants along alley that a tree is now leaning and is in contact with electric service wires. Also, utility pole on SE corner of lot has vines growing up near the transformer and just a few feet away from high voltage distribution lines. Property owner has let the entire property degrade so that what was once a good example of 1890s architecture is now a hovel/shack that is an embarrassment for the entire neighborhood.
Property is regularly overgrown with invasive, noxious plants such as tree of heaven. Parker management openly admits that they do not regularly mow or shovel sidewalks for their properties, and will only do so if they receive a complaint. We hope that HAND chooses to issue fines rather than warnings for this company's rentals. They know better, but just choose to disregard responsibility and decency.
