Duplicate of ticket 180481, created on 7.1.22 and closed WITHOUT resolution by Maria McCormick on 7.6.22. Not "resolved", Maria. New and previous property owners of 917 W Cardinal Ct have both failed to maintain property on the south side of the "creek", resulting in the attached. The actual yard on the north side of the "creek", or overgrown drainage ditch, has been mown once or twice this year. Once, coincidentally, just after the first ticket was submitted. But the property on the south side of the ditch, also belonging to 917 W Cardinal Ct, has not seen a blade in all of 2022. This has resulted in all kinds of extra wildlife living in the grass and wandering / slithering into yards. Their neighbors should be able to enjoy their own properties.

As I tried to obtain cash from the ATM, a homeless man walked up and waited next to me and asked me for money as I was pulling my cash from the machine. This is unacceptable and unsafe behavior

Neither of the EV chargers have worked for at least three weeks. In addition, the two spots available are very tight. It's very hard to park and have enough space to enter and exit your car and find room to organize the charging cord.

A truck full of trash has been parked outside of house for months. They live at the house but this is a nice neighborhood and they have a bunch of hoarding things outside house even. The car is parked in front of a stop sign which is super hard to get around when two cars are trying to go opposite directions.

There are multiple areas of stormwater runoff and pooling occurring on my property due to the development and ensuing increased runoff produced by the adjacent property at 910 N Madison St. My observations of increased water on my property come from regrading of the property to be higher than mine, a capped drain, building on the N-S alleyway that used to serve as a way for runoff to flow to the street, and redirection of water onto my properties via gutters, tubing, and installed drainage flows that direct onto my property on the north and northeast side of the 910 N Madison property. This has caused flooding in my basement, yard, and driveway that was not there prior to the redevelopment of this property and the vacation of the alley. I have more photos of where the stormwater drainage from this property is deliberately directed onto my properties, but am not able to upload them here due to the limit of one photo. All of lots surrounding this home are now on the market for development at an increased density. My concern is for my current situation and for the increased drainage issues that will come from further densification without mitigation to protect me and my surrounding neighbors. I would appreciate someone to come out to my property to see the current situation and drains installed by the City that are not functioning to protect my properties at 317 W 14th and 920 N Madison from damage by stormwater runoff.

The fence that was installed along the border of a vacated alley is excessively tall. Can someone come out to this location to assess the height of the fence and the shed that is even taller that was built right on the property line. This fence blocks light and is very tall from my side of the property. I have other photos of this fence from different angles, but can't upload them here due to the limit of one photo upload.

The East-West alley in this location is not accessible by neighbors. This alley has not been vacated, but is blocked on both sides by gates installed by the property owner at 910 N Madison. The gate on the east side is topped with barbed wire and makes the gate on the back of my property that used to be accessible to the alley, no longer usable. These gates also block any pedestrian traffic from walking from the Habitat neighborhood to Madison Street or connecting to the alley in the Maple Heights Neighborhood directly on the other side of Madison. The blocking of this un-vacated alley with locks, gates, and barbed wire makes it inaccessible and gives the impression that it is solely for the use as a driveway for the property owner at 910 N Madison Street. Alleys are essential connectors in traditional neighborhoods like this one for pedestrians, wildlife, as well as for neighbors to access the rear of their property. I would like to be able to access the rear of my property through the installed gate once again. I have photos that show the area I am referring to, but am not able to upload them due to the limit of one photo upload. This alley would also be convenient to many people as a connector for walking to the western side of Maple Heights Neighborhood, Tri-North Middle School, or the public Mills Pool, but it is instead blocked for public use. I would like to request that someone come out to view this site and the fences for compliance with the alley being not vacated and for the use of barbed wire.
