This is a blight issue. Property needs to be cleaned, maintained and secured to prevent vagrancy.
Trash has been scattered across the entire driveway for months with piles of more trash accumulating outside next to garage. Excessive growth to the point it looks like the movie setting for I Am Legend. After each storm large branches fall into street and are not picked up until neighbors just do it themselves. With the persistent amount of disregard to upkeep the outside it’s worrisome if there are hazards inside.
Grass getting over a foot tall
Mowing needed.
The yard is overgrown. There is bamboo growing on the southwest corner of the property. there is trash in the parking area. There is a large dying tree in the back yard that poses a hazard--large dead limbs are constantly dropping and the entire tree looks like it could come down on my house. I have filed a report before, I have contacted the owner. I should not have to be a nervous wreck when I go to sleep on nights like last night, thinking the tree could fall on my bedroom. This is a rental property--what about the tenants that pay to live in place that is trashed.
The lot is completely overgrown almost 2 feet.
The lot is overgrown and it is about 2 feet tall in places.
Tree encroaching onto sidewalk.
Grass and weeds are overgrown. This was an ongoing problem last summer and appears it will be a problem again this summer.
