Fence needs to be repaired, danger for railroad tracks.
Fence needs to be repaired, danger for railroad tracks.
NOTE: Site with the issue is south of 426 E 15th St. The sidewalk is blocked by overgrown vegetation. This apparently has been an issue for a long time based on mature growth of the vegetation and the path carved out to the left of the sidewalk.
Corrections to case#193765 (due to auto-correct): overgrown invasives are on the *west* side of Dunn (not east), and the plants we would like preserved are *cypresses* (thuja/arborvitae, Cupressaceae), not "depressed".
Invasives growing into sidewalk, blocking pedestrian passage.
Plant growth along front of property is hindering pedestrian traffic on sidewalk.
Cases #193296 (6 September) and #193766 (11 October) pertain to the same property/issus. Both are closed and marked "resolved", though issue remains. Invasives have grown over the retaining wall and are blocking the sidewalk. The steps lead to what appears to be a vacant lot, though there is a building at the far north end of this property. As per Elevate, owner is: The Teague Trust 2106 Casa Mia Dr San Jose, Ca 95124 If Bloomington would pass an ordinance restricting property ownership to local residents, and even better to require that property owners actually live in the buildings they own, most of the problems like this would go away.
Grass is knee-high, degraded sidewalk is treacherous, nasty couch sitting on porch and trash bins laying around out front. The place is an eyesore.
The street light at/near this address is not working.
You cannot see the stop sign at the intersection of North Grant and 16th Street due to overgrown tree blocking it. I didn’t see it (before taking this photo, then I came back) and ran the stop sign. Luckily nobody was coming but it is an accident waiting to happen.
