High grass/weeds.
This tenants grass is over a foot tall.
LAWSON WENT OUT TO LOOK AT COMPLAINT #5521. THERE IS AN APARTMENT BLDG. IN THE 200-204 BLOCK . THE GRASS NEEDS TO BE CUT IN BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK AND THERE IS TRASH THAT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED UP. LAWSON SAID TO REFERENCE COMPLAINT #5521.
The alley behind Mrs. Gwin, from 15th to 16th St, is over grown with weeds. Since 1940, she has always kept it mowed. She's 81, was just in the hospital, so can no longer do so. City crews have graveled and trimmed the rest of the entire alley from Walnut to Dunn, except the block behind her. She feels it's time for the city to take over this part of the alley too.
This tenants lawn has grass that is over a foot tall.
There are three apartment buildings in this block, and the grass in their yard is two feet tall. They use to belong to Elkins, maybe still do.
The grass in this person's yard is over a foot tall. This woman called and complained. She said she would not given me her name. She said she did not want to turn her tenants in. She also said that she had been doing this for years ( I am assuming that she means doing the drive by's and then complaining).
Apartment building at SE corner of 16th and Washington has tall grass which needs to be cut.
There is trash from the previous tenants - plus trash from new tenants(3 weeks) There is now a land fill in back yard. Lawns haven't been mowed.
Problem in rear alleyway: tall weeds; car parts, junk, etc. Mr. Beard would like a call back (he has an answering machine).
