Unsafe Buildings
1400 W 8th ST
- Case Date:
- 4/1/2024
Occupants have been erecting numerous structures made of pallets, wood, and tarps throughout their property for several weeks. The backyard seems completely full of these shanties. Their "construction" continues throughout much of the evening many days of the week, often extending to 10:00pm or later. The banging and power tool noise is a nuisance and the many structures they are creating seem very unsafe, especially for the children that are seen/heard playing there.

There are a lot of broken items or items that are NEVER used in the side yard and the back yard. This property is an eye sore and brings all of the surrounding property values down. The RV that sits in the drive way has not moved in FIVE+ years and is FULL of stored items.

Junk car disabled on Habitat Street. Hoarding of metal and useless junk, clothing strewn about along with open storage containers and items not for out door use between houses. How can the city let this kind of pollution go on for years ? So disgusting and disrespectful. John Hamilton should be ashamed for not doing something about the weak codes concerning this issue which is all too common in this town.The mayor himself said he would “look” into it years ago. There has been no change.

Recieved an email saying there WAS NO ISSUE AT THIS TIME. BULLSHIT, DID YOU EVEN LOOK? I am looking at literally PILES of garbage on their back porch, and loose bags of garbage in their front yard next to their city refuse cans. FINE THEM. THEY ARE ALWAYS DOING THIS, THAT IS NOT AN EXAGGERATION. I LITERALLY PICK THEIR GARBAGE OUT OF MY YARD EVERY DAY.

This is an unsightly and rodent haven, mess. How long are they going to be allowed to keep their yard like this?!

I reported this problem on 7/25/24 and this was the response:
"working with a third party contractor to schedule and abatement." Does it really take this long to take care of this problem?! It is now 9/13 and the problem has worsened yet again, and they have added two small Kroger shopping carts to the yard. I am sure city officials would love for this to be their neighbor! Please get this property cleaned up!

There's been a mattress dumped off there on the west side of North Adam's Street just before Fountain Drive. It's been there about 1 week.
