Call from Sanitation Dept that there are tarps hung up across the front of the house and the doors are not functioning so people are crawling in/out the doors & windows for access. Encouraged them to file a uReport since they were directly observing the issue.
I am writing on behalf of the tenant, Kamala to request that the City check if there is a sewer clog or other issue causing her washing machine, toilet and bathtub to drain slow and cause water to overflow onto her carpet and flooring. Since she reported problems I (landlord) have hired a contractor who augered the exterior cleanout and snaked from the interior drain. Both were clear until reaching to approx the middle of the road in front of the house. Her neighbor across the street (last house on left before train tracks) is also having problems with water back-ups.
There is a recliner sofa and a full size portapotty that have been sitting on the side of the road in front of 1400 w 8th st for several weeks. Can this be removed?
The "resident" is in jail on drug dealing/manufacturing charges. She has declined services multiple times. Meanwhile, property values decrease, and her property is over-ran with pests, and trash, among other things. It is not hard to see the solution is to enforce city codes. My patience is gone. Dealing with this for 10 years or more. So, I, and other neighbors have zero patience left.
This has been reported multiple times. This structure keeps growing, and it looks like they are about to make additions.
There is a "tent" structure in the front yard of this property. The legal owner is deceased and her adult children occupy this house without paying taxes. The homeless people who congregate here do not have access to a bathroom or sewage system. The property is littered with clothing and trash. This property has been under an abatement, which I believe ended when the property was sold recently at the Treasurer's tax sale. This property continues to be an eyesore and a health concern from feces & urine (from lack of restroom access), as well as rodent & insect investations. I have also seen needles from drug use scattered on the road in the past.
I was in my car turning from Fountain Drive onto North Adams Street to head south. There is consistently low visibility for vehicles coming from the train tracks, even when the foliage is cut and maintained, so that's not relevant to my issue. It looked clear after checking twice, so I went. As I was in the process of turning, I saw that a vehicle had gotten over the train tracks and was heading my way, but I was already out in the process of turning, so I had to complete my turn. This caused aggressive behavior from the driver, who I believe had already been speeding down Adams. They started to tailgate my vehicle. I needed to turn to go east (and additionally needed to come to a complete stop to do so because there was a line of traffic heading north), but they were tailgating my vehicle to the point that I could not complete a turn until Patterson Drive, forcing me to turn around and come back North on Adams.
There is a homeless encampment on the railroad easement behind this property. The railroad company has been notified.
Ureport # 212169, gave this address until 7/13 to clean their property up. Today is 7/14, and there are MORE items and a tent encampment on their property. The have zero intentions of cleaning this property!
Trash and clothing on the ground everywhere on this property!
