Our neighbors have had a trailer of junk/trash in the front yard for weeks and it's attracting rats in our neighborhood.
Our neighbors have had a trailer of junk/trash in the front yard for weeks and it's attracting rats in our neighborhood.
This house appears abandoned. Last week the roof caved in over the covered front porch and it knocked the front storm door off. The brick is now falling down off the Chimney that is crumbling. The lawn was never moved last year either. Seems unsafe and is also unsightly.
The house at the mentioned address burned in April 2018. It has been abandoned since with nothing done to fix or repair. The owner keeps many objects out in the yard and up in the trees. (Many facing neighbors' properties.) The yard has not been kept up with before or since and we (neighbors surrounding this house) are concerned about rodents and other pests that could be attracted to this house. We are also concerned about what it is doing to our property values. It was a tragedy for this house to burn but it has been almost three years and nothing has been done to clean this property up. We hope there is something the City of Bloomington can do to help us with this eyesore and possible hazard to people in the neighborhood.
this home is my next door neighbor, had a fire in 2018, nothing has been done with the property, the yard is out of control. Concerned about me and my other neighbors property value, possibly vermin. The owner shows up occasionally and builds sculptures in the yard out of trash. Can something be done about this? The neighbor on the other side is also very worried. Maybe she's reached out also, don't know. would appreciate some feedback from whomever reads this.
Does anyone know what is going on at 4224 East Penn Ct? This is the home that had the terrible fire damage. It now appears that someone is living there, and are converting it into some sort of art installation/ haunted house. The entire front yard is fenced in, including the driveway. I checked GIS and a sale has not been made since Mark Harper purchased it in 2013. Any insight into what is going on down there would be great. I mean, the windows are all still boarded up. Is someone squatting there??
The two building directly to the north of my building are currently unsafe with multiple viewings of homeless and users coming and going from in between the buildings. It's not safe for anybody to be back there with the activity that happens daily. The light on that property is also out and there have been homeless camping in the unkept wooded area behind my property that is owned by the City. I thought that the two buildings were to be torn down at one point, but it seems that the issues were temporarily fixed and the owner was allowed to keep the buildings up. Please call or email with questions in regards to this situation.
527 N Prow Ave has sump pump draining into the road causing dangerous road condition when it turns to ice.
The stone chimney is damaged and stones continue to fall from this home off their roof onto my property. The owner needs to do something with this chimney to make it safe.
The Avenue refuses to fix their fire alarms. It is a massive public safety issue as nobody believes the alarms are valid. People stay inside after the alarms go off
