A boat, a trailer filled with appliances, lawn equipment, etc., has been parked across the yard all weekend. They've had this issue numerous times before with vehicles and made an improvement to the driveway size, but vehicles are still parked on the lawn.

We have lived on first st since 2020 and our stretch of road (between the stop sign at Woodlawn and the one on Henderson) that our young child has to cross to get to his school bus stop is the only section of first Street residentially that has a big space between stop signs and no speed bumps. Because of this what I've noticed, since the speed bumps east of Woodlawn and first were put in, is people often speed on our stretch of road. There are two other families at our bus stop and they have noticed the same thing and often worry about crossing the street to either get to the park or the bus stop as a result. I believe we also need speed bumps on our stretch of road as it feels like drivers are now compensating and trying to make up for lost time.

There is a back-hoe parked in the back-yard, animal cages and multiple vehicles on the property. He is running two separate business from the house and the whole place looks like Pigeon Hill. All of our neighbors are very upset about how the property is full of junk and don't how he can do this in a neighborhood.

504 W Dixie St, Bloomington. House has not been lived in for over a decade. Two abandoned vehicles in back yard are being used as shelter for a person who is apparently unhoused and unrelated to deceased owner and her family. The site is a mess with belongings strewn over the entire yard. It is unclear how human waste is being dealt with. Within the last week, curtains have been hung around the front porch to inhibit view to front door. I believe the unhoused person or person have gained unauthorized access to the house through this or the back door, because a window along the east alley side that has been covered with blind and curtain for over a decade now has the curtain pulled back. One can also see through the east vent into the attic that there is a hole in the attic roof, making it accessible to animals. This situation has become untenable, and a hazard for sanitation as well as the perceived safety of me and other neighbors.

Problem reported earlier (#202303). Was 'Resolved' with the justification that the vehicle is located in a driveway. A driveway seems to me the 'private property' referred to in the Municipal Code section below. The license plate is expired. Owner recently replaced the 1975 plate with a newer one, but it still is an expired plate (2016). Vehicle has been there for at least 30 years. No one in the street can remember seeing it ever been used. 15.04.020 (6), definition of an Abandoned Vehicle. A vehicle that is three or more model years old and mechanically inoperable, and is left on private property continuously in a location visible from public property for more than twenty days.
