The owners of this residence are continuing to let this building fall into disrepair and are possibly pursuing a "demolition through neglect". There has been substantial improvement to this structure since I moved within view of this building in March of 2013. This has led to the building becoming a public safety hazard for both the Near Westside and Prospect Hill neighborhoods.
Used syringe (with needle) in hellstrip just west of entrance to Rose Hill Farm Stop.
Overgrowth and trees on this property encroach significantly on the sidewalk making pedestrian access difficult. In addition, the property is overrun with highly invasive plants, including tree of heaven, multiflora rose, and many others.
Can the city conduct a review of the historic preservation board? There is little to no predictability, and I'm confused what purposes the city has for the group. Who do they represent? They don't seem to favor property owners or take cost into consideration but they also don't seem to favor the public by thinking what would the public want to save. And they don't favor the neighbors (and shouldn't because it shouldn't be just about making folks rich enough to own historic homes richer) as they don't listen to them either? Who do they listen to? And what are they saving for who? There should definitely be protection, I'd just like to know better what their goals are. I don't know if the group functions as intended.
Bamboo is along the back alley of this home.
Property management of rental triplex at 802 W 7th has not removed snow from the sidewalk of corner property since snowstorm on Thursday, February 3rd.
Can someone from HAND leave a brochure for the people in apartment #2 so that they realize that they shouldn't leave their garbage and recycling containers out for the entire week after pick up? Also, they don't understand what can and cannot be recycled. Pizza Boxes... Thank you!
The person in apartment 3 leaves his empty trash cans on the sidewalk for days after pick up. They are still out there. I have not seen him to tell him about it and he is not there when I knock. Please give him a HAND welcome to Bloomington packet and let him know he needs to take his cans off the sidewalk after trash day.
New renters. They have a huge stack of cardboard outside by recycling containers and overflowing recycling containers that they do not put on the curb on recycling day. Their recycling is blowing all over the neighborhood.
It's recycling day tomorrow and none of the cardboard that is leaning up against this house has been broken down to put in containers. HAND came out last week and said they would monitor the situation. This cardboard isn't going anywhere, it's been here for a month. Doesn't this violate city policy?
