Grass is very tall in side yard.
Grass is very tall in side yard.
Vacant House at 939 N Fairview St.
Front and back yards at 808 W Second St are overgrown, unsightly, and attracting pest animals.
808 W 2nd St home is unoccupied and lawn hasn’t been cut in months. As a neighbor I’m concerned with bugs and overgrowth encroaching into our yard.
Lawn looks more like a forest. Please ask owner to make an attempt to maintain this small property.
Tick heaven. There is no. It is nothing but invasive honeysuckle and weeds. I have to keep cutting it back on my property line because it continues to infringe. There are 5 children living in that house. That's their business to run the run of lyme disease and West Nile, but I don't like it being a spawning ground near me. And now the CDC has released a report about these "kissing bugs." The City code refers to "noxious weeds." They got 'em.
The home at 700 S. Highland (Southwest corner of E. University and S. Highland) has extensive overgrowth of weeds and tree branches into the sidewalk on S. Highland. The sidewalk has become impassable in some spots and damaged in others. Probably worth a visit by the city, and a citation.
Excessive growth is just for starters. The yard is nothing but overgrowth - noxious weeds, invasive honeysuckle. This is a CITY lot, not the county. In addition, I question the safety of the building and the property itself. The condition of this property violates numerous city codes and it not acceptable in my neighborhood - my CITY neighborhood.
