Deep n wide
excess growth and abandoned house
Yard is overgrown, never mowed, about to engulf house.
Trash is strewn along the street, alleyway, caught in the trees and bushes of 1110 N Lincoln, trapped under cars and generally everywhere. Have attempted it to clean it up but continues to appear. It is unsanitary and attracting pests and rodents.
There is a city-maintained connecting road between Woodburn Ave and College Ave just to the right of 1020 N Woodburn. This connector is paved by the city and provides access to the Sunflower II Apartments and to the parking areas for 1020 North Woodburn and for the address just south of 1020. The paving of the parking for Sunflower II is the responsiblity of Crown Management and there is a clear line separating their parking lot from the connector street. The potholes I am reporting are on the connector portion only. This connector is 1 block long with intersections at Woodburn and College. The connector at this point just needs a pothole repair especially the eastern 1/2 of the connector.
Overgrown bamboo at 1002 W 6 St and Elm bending into sidewalks and street obstructing traffic. Bird droppings covering the sidewalk. The invasive plant has encroached on neighboring property where we live at 1004, so we are having to engage removal services and eventually install impermeable barriers at our expense. The back yard of 1002 is overgrown also, feral cats, possum and a skunk have been sited or smelled in a fallen shed which has not been cleared out. The Elm Street side of 1002 is full of debris and overgrowth and there is an unattended stagnant water feature where we hear frogs in the summer (which do attract copperhead snakes). Someone does seem to be inhabiting the house, though we know that the owner of the house does not reside in Indiana presently.
