Yet again tonight I could not sit on my porch because of the hazy of toxic smoke in The Near West side neighborhood. This has been an ongoing issue for the last year and a half at least. Someone is burning trash or plastic on the other side of the rail lines on empty property to the north of the B-line between Adams and where 8th St ends next to White Oak cemetery. The smoke drifts across the neighborhood. I know a neighbor reported it on Saturday night and the police went to check the site out. But it also happened Sunday and tonight. What can be done about it? Such unhealthy air.

A cooler full of trash and stagnant water has been sitting in front of this house for several months now. It’s mosquito breeding time… I think this is a rental property.

Referring to closed case #188267: unkempt lawn at 1706 E Second Street, and part of the lawn that is adjacent to 607 S Eastside Drive. The owner indeed did mow a little more, but a large part of the lawn that borders 706 is still in the same horrible shape as it was, worse in fact, because the grass has kept growing since May 5. There also is a large branch that fell off a tree, that has been sitting there for ages and was not removed. Maybe it is time for another visit.

Multiple locations (bump outs) along the 7th St Greenway east of Union to south on Hillsdale. Basically they are being ignored by mowing crews, again.

I am renting this property and the landlord’s repairman did not connect the ventilation tubing to the outside so all the lint and debris is getting pumped into the air. I wanted to report this as a violation of housing code. Thank you.

Two men have been living in this shelter for at least a month. They bathe in the tap, cook on the grill, and sleep in the shelter on the picnic tables. Their exclusionary use means no one else can use the shelter. They seem nice, but the shelter is not for long-term camping.
