Once again, I need to report excessive grass growth on the lot just west of my lot (105 E Sunny Slopes Dr, Bloomington). It is an area that doesn't appear to belong to anyone--it is the extension of what might have been planned for a street.
There is an overgrown tree at the intersection of Sare Road and Southern Oaks Drive that is blocking the "STOP" sign. Originally, the tree that was planted there broke, and many new volunteers grew up in that spot. The homeowners at that site have not cut them back. I think they may not realize that it would be okay for them to do so. My family and I had a similar thing happen to one of the oak trees in the tree-row in the front of our house. We chose one of the "volunteers" and cut away the others, so that now we have a single oak tree in that spot, just as we did originally. We actually used the broken tree as a support for the new tree as it was growing. Thanks for your help.
Grass is very overgrown. Expect this from these residents all year :(
Excessive grass height. Old lawn mower, trash, children's toys, etc. sitting in the yard since last fall. Corner lot creates an unsightly appearance for the entire area.
City truck came through today to cite overgrown lawns. But he drove past lawns over 8 inches on Larkspur and didn't cite, nor did he drive through neighborhood to see all others with very overgrown lawns.
The front yard is getting tall, the back yard is much worse.
My neighbor's yard (weeds) at 3115 E Kensington Park Drive is excessively high. My house on S. Forrester backs up to this yard. This has continuously been an issue since the present owners moved in. I understand that they had a fire last summer and I mowed it for them throughput the fall, but they have moved back into their house and I would appreciate them taking appropriate care of their yard.
I live at 105 E. Sunny Slopes, at the intersection with Brookside. In the area that would have been the extension of Brookside, adjacent to my property, is an area that is an overgrown, branch-strewn, leaf-covered eyesore. I think it is the city's responsibility, which would mean the city has a sad record for maintaining that area, but if it is the responsibility of a private owner, please let me know who it is so that I don't have to complain to this e-mail site every month or two!!!
Yard is overgrown. Landlord/property manager has not mowed the yard yet this year. There are weeds taller than two feet in some areas.
Yard is above one foot high
