Poison ivy growing next to sidewalk
Poison ivy growing next to sidewalk
Overgrowth beginning to block sidewalk - invasive honeysuckle and tree of heaven on property.
Grass & weeds are growing outside the backyard fence and is over 12 inches high. They have completely ignored the sidewalk area behind the house with no mowing all year.
For over a year, both the owner and tenant of this location have made repeated offenses against city code - including dumping yard waste in the ally, not picking up trash in yard and on sidewalk, having multiple broken down cars parked (for over a year) on property without attempts to repair/remove them. Owners are constantly parking on sidewalk for days at a time. Tenants have aggressive dog that has jumped the fence and attacked people. Blue car in front of house (with flat tires) hasn't moved in over a year, and does not run. Blue SUV doesn't run, and hasnt moved in months. Trash and recycle bin are constantly over flowing and spilling trash. Bins are never removed from sidewalk. Witnesses have caught tenants throwing trash into neighbors yard.
Please keep this anonymous. My Parents are my landlord and my Mom almost died from sepsis UTI can’t handle stress. These occupants have had sharp broken glass in common area for over 6 months. This is where I walk there probably should legally be an alleyway or sidewalk here - I’m not asking for that but I’m asking for no broken mirrors
The trash and recycling bins were on the sidewalk in front of the house this evening (Thursday). Since the bins were full and their trash day is Monday, I suspect the bins were placed out 4 days early.
Has not cleared sidewalk from the snowfall of a few days ago. Perhaps is unaware that they need to
Snow not shoveled
Sidewalk in front of the business not shoveled of snow and ice. My daughter fell on her way to BHSS. I understand a private home might have trouble clearing the walk, but this is a business.
Could you ask the owner to replace the downspout? When it rains, it splashes on the sidewalk
