504 W Dixie St, Bloomington. House has not been lived in for over a decade. Two abandoned vehicles in back yard are being used as shelter for a person who is apparently unhoused and unrelated to deceased owner and her family. The site is a mess with belongings strewn over the entire yard. It is unclear how human waste is being dealt with. Within the last week, curtains have been hung around the front porch to inhibit view to front door. I believe the unhoused person or person have gained unauthorized access to the house through this or the back door, because a window along the east alley side that has been covered with blind and curtain for over a decade now has the curtain pulled back. One can also see through the east vent into the attic that there is a hole in the attic roof, making it accessible to animals. This situation has become untenable, and a hazard for sanitation as well as the perceived safety of me and other neighbors.

My neighbor maintains a vacant property, and has since before 2013. The backyard is a junkyard, and a rodent resort. If he can maintain a vacant property, he should have to clean up. It's a terrible eye sore and negativity affects our property. I live 835 w kirkwood. His is the house to east of mine

My neighbors have a large black labrador that is often off lease on the street. Is comes running at me in my backyard barking and growling. I have managed to shout and scream at it to get it to go away but it keeps scaring me and my guests. It has also caused a previous problem by chasing a delivery driver who was coming to my house. I spoke to my landlord about this and both he and I have spoken to the dog's owner. He says that he can't do anything about it because the dog escapes out the door and he then tries to get it back but I am unsatisfied with this response. I should not be terrorized in my own backyard and now feel I can't have any guests over because the dog will end up scaring them. I know that there are leash laws in Bloomington and that the dog cannot be off leash like this but I'm not sure what to do to stop it.

My neighbors at 103 E Southern Drive leave their large dog outside, off-leash all the time. That dog runs loose and into the yards of my two rental properties just across the street on E Southern Dive. The dog terrorizes my tenants who cannot safely spend time outside or even walk to their car in the driveway because of the dog, barking and plunging at them. The neighbors refuse to leash their dog before letting him outside. Both my tenants and I have already approached them and their answer is that the dog just runs out the door. They could let the dog run at Switchyard park just steps away, but they refuse to leash it and have no qualms about their dog terrorizing the neighbors. Please make them stop!
