There is a new garbage can and new recycling can that were delivered WEEKS ago that are sitting on the handicap sidewalk ramp. The garbage cans don't belong to the house (the garbage cans are on the side of the house---they don't belong to that house). Please can someone remove these cans---they don't belong to anyone and are blocking the sidewalk for kids walking to school.
This rental property (Orion property) has had multiple bags of trash sitting by the road for two weeks. The grass is overgrown. I asked the property managers (Orion properties) to clean up the garbage and the person showing the house said they think the city will pick it up and he wasn't worried about it. I don't know why the city allows bags of garbage to remain by the road for two weeks, skipped over by garbage collection for two weeks and nothing is done about it.
As of 5/8/17 one full garbage can remains uncollected from this Orion properties rental. This uncovered can has been on the street for at least 3 weeks and the collection crews continue to pass it by. Last week the garbage bags that were laying by the street were collected, but the full can was left. No action taken by the city for 3+ weeks. From the city website: "Do not place containers out more than 24 hours in advance and remove them from the curb on the same day as pick up. A violation may result in a fine up to $50. Each day a violation continues is a separate violation." This means Orion properties should be fined in excess of $1050.00.
Orion properties has left the garbage can on the curb for another full week. Who should these problems be reported to? This reporting platform is ineffective.
Recycling bin stored on sidewalk. Also, large amount of brush blocking sidewalk.
Honestly, the entirety of the near north side from Dunn Meadow to 12th street and so is just COVERED in trash. Some yards are worse than others. In my years living here I'm not sure I've seen it so bad for so long. There are a lot of properties that could be cited. You could start with the house at the SW corner of Indiana and 7th and just fan out from there. It is embarrassing to the city, not to mention the university, as we are getting into high school junior visiting season.
Trash in alley south of 601 and to the east of 601.
Trash bins by sidewalk (on Cottage Grove)
A house full of furniture was just dumped out in the front yard. Has been there overnight. 618 s fess
