Uncollected trash has been sitting in front of 706 N Washington St. for several weeks now.
The back property line for the new apartment complex at 714 North Walnut has not been maintained all summer, and is extremely overgrown at this point. I've e-mailed the new property owners several time this summer asking them to maintain this area, but have been unable to get a response from them. This can be viewed easily from my backyard, if necessary.
Last year, the section of the sidewalk at Washington and Cottage Grove was replaced, but the workers left a trench in the road that collects water and breeds mosquitos. I couldn't help but notice when similar work was done this summer on 10th street and a layer of pavement was laid alongside the sidewalk to fill the trench there. Probably just an oversight but it'd be nice to get this job completed.
Trash bins stored by street (on 11th Street, SW corner of property)
Yard plantings have taken over sidewalk near the intersection of Lincoln and 11th. It is now impassible.
Trash bins stored in full view at sidewalk, perched on retaining wall.
Does the City ever follow up with these reports? This property has had garbage cans on the sidewalk for at least a month, blocking pedestrian traffic.
