bushes/weeds overflowing into sidewalk, neighbors' yards, etc.
Bamboo and other overgrowth blocking stop sign, overhanging street, blocking sidewalk.
Excessive tree and bush growth in the back yard has expanded to the street. Cars eastbound must cross over in to the other lane.
Vine hanging into street from tree.
Not sure of address - might be both houses - but the shrubs on the north side of the properties here have grown large by the sidewalk and make it difficult to navigate without stepping to the side and walking on the grass. Definitely not ADA compliant at present.
Overgrowth at the stop sign. Covering a portion of the sidewalk. Intersection of 6th & Maple. The overgrowth is at south east corner of the intersection.
Bush growth overtaken sidewalk, forcing pedestrians to walk into 10th st.
Bushes are blocking the sidewalk at this property and the adjoining property to the south.
I own and live in a property at 118 N. Jackson St. The alley that runs directly by our home (runs parallel between Kirkwood and 6th Street) has become extremely overgrown in the last two years. It's often a dumping ground for clothes, junk and drugs (yes, I have photos of various people hiding items in the brush for others to retrieve). Heretofore, my girlfriend and I are the only people picking things up when clothes and junk are dumped in the alley. I would love a city clean up of brush, limbs, overgrowth and trash and feel like a better looking alley would not lend itself to discarded items so often. I've included one photo from my kitchen window of one (of several) instances in which a seemingly homeless man was hiding/exchanging items in the brush for (what i assume must be) other individuals to find. I of course realize this alley is never going to get a garden award but do believe shaping it up and removing much of the brush would help this situation greatly.
There is vegetation that hangs over the sidewalk in front of Willowbrook Apartments, 1201-1311 N. Maple Street
