Trash bins being stored on sidewalk, blocking foot traffic.
Retaining wall is collapsing. Large stones are now blocking the alley to vehicular traffic on the east side of the property. Other stones are ready to fall and are dangerous. Property owner was made aware of this a month ago, but has neglected to even pick up the stones, let alone repair the wall.

Property should be inspected prior to allowing it to be rented. House is in disrepair and outdoor property has invasive plants growing all around buildings and up into electrical wires on SE corner of property.
Property is so overgrown with invasive, noxious plants along alley that a tree is now leaning and is in contact with electric service wires. Also, utility pole on SE corner of lot has vines growing up near the transformer and just a few feet away from high voltage distribution lines. Property owner has let the entire property degrade so that what was once a good example of 1890s architecture is now a hovel/shack that is an embarrassment for the entire neighborhood.
