There are no fire exits in this store. Every exit door, other than the front door is completely blocked with filled shelves of merchandise. And the store is for children and moms. If there was a fire in the front of the store, or an active shooter event, there is no exit and no exit signs.
There is a guy burning building materials in an open fire.
There is some one with an open fire burning building materials. It stinks and it is against city ordinance.
There is an illegal business, a garage, being run from a garage that is part of 2600 S Banta Ave. They are burning what smells like rubber outside on the property.
On the ridge overlooking the northernmost part of the B-Line - close to where the B-Line intersects with Adams St. there is a growing camp. The picture here was taken on 4/1/2024. There is trash flowing downhill from the camp on the ridge. Some of the trash includes at least 3 propane tanks. The camp is less than 0.25 miles from homes and a park. It is a bit scary to think that the campers might be using the propane inside their tents. What can be done to help these folks stay warm and dry without the risk of blowing up a neighborhood?
Fire / Theft / Squatting hazard. Can we talk about this nuisance location? It has had two fires in 5 months, at an abandoned house known for homeless squatters that are proven bike thieves, in a residential neighborhood. The yard is full of stolen bicycle frames and stolen firewood. The owner is an elderly 76 YO woman who lives south of the city limits. Clearly this is an abandoned / squatter sitution that is a public hazard. What do we need to tolerate?
I was shopping in the dollar tree store the other day and there was boxes all over the floor in the aisle ways. There was uboats also all over the store making it hard to shop. I passed by the stock room and the doors where propped open and I could see the boxies where stacked almost to the ceiling and where falling all over the place. I could see that the back door was also blocked by uboats and boxies.
Unattended smoldering cooking fire, presumably the morning after.
There is a large/full/mature mulberry tree hanging over power lines, utility lines, cable and telephone wires. The tree is specifically at the edge of the alley entering Jackson St from the property address listed above. In storms the branches bounce off the power lines and causes a lot of sparks. Cars are parked very close to this and concern is of fire or tearing down the power lines if a branch were to fall. Recommending a thorough cut back of large branches back to mid alley. Duke came out to trim some small branches, but didn't resolve the problem.
