Abandoned house; excessive grown on un-mowed lawn at intersection.
Open trashcans and trash left permanently on City property (Habitat St.) Mosquito breeding site and vermin spread trash over street and nearby property.
Re: #165767 metal trash cans and car tire are not on his private property, according to Street Department. Also, the City never gave up right of way to alley before Habitat Street was paved, but property owner converted area to private use. He did the same thing with the Indiana RR right-of-way, but the RR cleared all of his junk out. City code prohibits open containers and trash being scattered. City code prohibits cans left on City Streets.
lot not mowed this year
My address is technically 1529 W. 8th. We recently purchased our home and just got all moved in. In between my house and our neighbors, there is a ton of overgrowth over power lines connected to our homes. We really need someone to come out and clear the area before it becomes a problem. There is also a very large and what seems like a very dead tree on our neighbors property that is over some power lines as well.
lot not mowed, yard trash, junk chair, graffiti on shed
There are a lot of broken items or items that are NEVER used in the side yard and the back yard. This property is an eye sore and brings all of the surrounding property values down. The RV that sits in the drive way has not moved in FIVE+ years and is FULL of stored items.
There is trash, appliances, toys, an RV full of items never used and a van that is packed with trash bags, among other things. If this isn't hoarding, it is close to it. I've complained numerous times through the years and nothing really gets done. They cover it with tarps and that's about it. I'd love to see this property cleaned and kept clean. It is an eye sore and it is bringing my property value down. I couldn't sell my property right now because no on wants to live next to that! I don't have a picture, but you can look at the satellite picture on Google Maps and see most of it. I can take a pic if necessary.
