Along the north edge of property where the alley intersects Grant and under the junipers, there is an old, metal fence with a single stretch of barbed wire at the top. This is alongside a public alley, so the barbed wire should not be there, as per City Code 14.36.030 - "Barbed wire fences". It would suffice if the offending wire were removed.

Trash

2608 E Edwards ROW

Case Date:
3/15/2023

Hello, On trash collection day, morning of 3/15/2023, I had my Bins out, and all trash properly bagged and inside, the trash bin was far from over-flowing. However, the collection service had removed a bag and thrown it into my lawn. This was trash that was in the trash bin, not recycling. I would very much apprecaite if this does not happen in the future. I do not throw trash in my yard, and I would expect the service I pay to remove trash doesn't throw trash in my yard, either. Thank you.

Trash

Case Date:

This is in reference to Case #183131 Please actually read the message. You are threatening to send a HAND inspector to fine ME for the trash they threw out of my bins? Are you kidding me? I made the report to let you know THE SANITATION WORKERS THREW TRASH OUT OF MY BIN. How dare you? This is absolutely insane. Please READ THE INITIAL REPORT. May I suggest a third time as comprehension seems to be in short supply!

Scooters, Bike-share and Related Issues

Case Date:

Lime scooters have been thrown on the edge of my property and have been left there for over a week. I would like someone to come remove them. I am 80 years old and I try to take care of my property but I cannot move them myself. They should only be allowed to be parked on public property, not private property.

Inaccessible Parking

1800 W Marquis DR

Case Date:
3/17/2023

I'm a physically disabled and legally blind single woman on own who gets help regularly from caretakers, others. They oftentimes take m places as well. I have mobility issues not only to my vision but also to my varied forms of arthritis so it is diffu for me to walk. Though I have a driveway in the back of my rental house to it being on a hill with steps to access the driveway my caretakers, others who help me park in the front to make it easier for me. I'm aware it is city street parking but others have continually parked very close to my house in the front making it very difficult for my help to park to be accessible for me to enter their vehicles. There is a sewer drain that the help often have to park on in order to park in front of my house. I have contacted the off site management on the matters they are going to do nothing to is city streets unfortunately. Thank you very much

Unsafe Buildings

1001 N Jackson ST

Case Date:
3/17/2023

I own the property located at 1005 N. Jackson St, 47404. Shortly after purchasing the property the house next door burned down. We felt very fortunate that our house was not damaged. The house was demolished, however, shortly after demolishing the house someone has set up a tent on the lot and multiple people have been seen using the tent. There is trash surrounding the tent. Though we have not seen a fire there is what appears to be a makeshift fire pit. We use this property as a short term rental and it has the proper permits. I am personally concerned about the safety of my wife who spends some of her days working on improvements within the property. Obviously concerned about the impact on our ability to rent the home with the above described situation. I'm not sure what can be done but after reviewing the code it does not seem like this fits the intended use of the property. I am also empathetic to the rise of homelessness in our community, but this is a residential neighborhood and for the safety of all community members something should be done. We dodged a serious issue when the house burnt down and worry we may not be so lucky if something happens again. Thanks for your attention to this matter, please reach out with any questions. Hoping this could be resolved amicably, not trying to get anyone in trouble.
