I work for affordable fence ad last winter there was a deck being built at 2622 e spice wood crt. I noticed that the support beams were being set up using 4x4 posts. I told them at the time that I believed that 4x6 posts were as small as code allowed. The contractor scoffed at me and i just said "ok" and went back to work. Yesterday while doing an inspection on the fence I installed I saw that two elderly people live at the home and we're out on their deck. The deck (with them on the deck) was very rickety and moved way too much to be safe. I hate to see anyone getting one over on e elderly simply because they can. Their safety is a major issue and I can no longer be silent about the issue. Hopefully you can look into it promptly thank you! Anonymous
Other: It has come to the attention of the surrounding neighbors that the owner of the property attempted to evict the tenants with no luck. It is past 30 days to when many of us first learned of this. Since the clearing of the camps at Switchyard there is much more activity at this property. There is a person sleeping in their black car in the driveway. There are people on bikes in and out throughout the day and night. There are dogs without leashes. There are people yelling. The Tenants are running a very large and loud generator from 8am-11pm, so they're aware of the rules. This means no power. From what I understand, they also haven't had water in almost a year. Check previous reports to follow up on that. All of this is causing significant distress and potential health hazards to the surrounding residents. This is a nuisance and a safety concern for everyone. These tenants and the state of the building detracts from the character and well-being of the neighborhood, and despite numerous complaints, no change has been made.
There is trash pile around the house. The yard isn't mowed. It is vacant and people are slipping in and out of the house. Rats have been viewed running from the property.
The privacy fence on the southeast corner is falling down and parts are missing. This is allowing people to use this as a short cut on to private property that borders the back of the apartment. Attempts to contact the apartment have fallen on deaf ears.
Correction on location. Southwest corner The privacy fence on the southwest corner is falling down and parts are missing. This is allowing people to use this as a short cut on to private property that borders the back of the apartment. Attempts to contact the apartment have fallen on deaf ears.
Since there is a new historic survey approved by council, please fix this link: https://bloomington.in.gov/historic-bloomington/survey Also I would strongly advocate adding a way to search your property on “my Bloomington” by address/Including the survey designation in all of the list of information that pops up when you type in your address there.
Homeowner dumping yard waste over fence into the easement. This is against city zoning restrictions. We have already spent almost 2 years to stop this from happening by BBY and Aaron Prange, who does the dumping. He still dumps his yard garbage over the fence into the easement. Sue me. Go ahead. This is all TRUE.
Bagged trash in front of garage, wooden or cardboard spool in yard, car that has years-old expired plates in driveways, please clean.
The yard is full of trash, rusted, rotting wood, plastics, anything and everything.
