Recycling bin sitting on sidewalk - NW corner of property on Lincoln.
Recycling bin sitting on sidewalk - NW corner of property on Lincoln.
Trash bins on sidewalk. Tenants have been asked to remove them already, but they dismissively laughed and walked away.
Trash bin being stored on sidewalk
There has been a trash bin on the sidewalk on the east side of Grant Street for several days which does not belong to anyone on the east side of the street.
Large pile of trash heaped up against the NW corner of this building. It has been there awhile, and there is a faded HAND notice on the front door that appears to be for the trash but it has been ignored. This property also has bush honeysuckle growing out onto the sidewalk, halfway covering it now.
This is about two things. There are bush honeysuckles growing out that are about half-blocking the sidewalk. Just a matter of time before it's completely impossible to pass by. Also, trash bins and mattress are lying by the street in the grassy area, which is also blocking someone who wants/needs to walk that way.
Tenants storing trash bins on sidewalk.
Trash bins have been sitting in front yard and on sidewalk for weeks. Request they be stored in back (west side) of house.
Refuse partially blocking sidewalk.
See case #186242. Not as much sewage right now due to tenants being on break this week, but the problem has not been corrected. Once it gets cold and the tenants return, the constant flow of sewage on the sidewalk will create an ice hazard in addition to the already present infection/contamination hazard. Please force property owner to correct the problem ASAP, and at least before winter. If the Planning is allowing him to build more (unneeded) rentals in the neighborhood (e.g., E. Cottage Grove), he should be required to perform at least some upkeep of the ones he is already responsible for.
