Sidewalk isn’t usable because of tree/hedge growth
1501 Browning Lane is an abandoned house. The owner still lives in the area but not in the home. It is becoming increasingly dilapidated. Recently a large evergreen tree fell into the house and is currently on top of the roof. Not sure if there is anything you can do to address this. The house is hurting the value of our street!
Vacant lot between 3124 and 3200 N. Ramble Road East. Neighbors complain consistently about difficulty of walking on this stretch of sidewalk.
There is a house in our neighborhood, 4011 Stonegate Drive, Bloomington, Indiana, that has been abandoned and it is hoarded. There is overgrowth covering the front of the house. There is a car in the drive with 2014 tags that has not been moved since 2014. We have our house on the market and believe this eyesore may be affecting our ability to sell our house.Could the city do something about this house?
Woodlawn Ave. Between 2nd and University St. Excessive overgrowth and dead tree limbs lying in yard. Huge dead trees need to be cut down. They pose a threat to passersby as this is a major thoroughfare for pedestrians. Unsightly and decreases value and enjoyment of street/neighborhood.
Vegetation is significantly obstructing sidewalk at 411 s Lincoln.
This report is in reference to serious overgrowth on a City right-of-way on the corner of N. Oolitic St. and W. 11th St. The property that this right-of-way is connected to is 1508 W. 11th St. The owner of this property is/was Joseph E. Day. However, he is recently deceased. At this time, the property is in the process of repossession by BB&T Bank. I know that in usual circumstances, Joe may have been responsible for the care of this area. However as I stated, he is now deceased. I have been trying to contact BB&T Bank - I actually may have an interest in purchase of the property since I own the vacant adjoining lots - but have gotten absolutely no response. In the mean time, the overgrowth on the City right-of-way that is on the west edge of his property is growing out into Oolitic St, has grown to the point of obscuring the speed limit sign, and is covering a fire hydrant. I am hoping that, given the circumstances, the City could come and mow/cut/clear that area. The main backyard is inside a fence, but this small section along Oolitic St has been left outside the fence. Thank you, Anthony Eller
When trying to make a turn from Orris Dr onto W. 11th St, the excessive growth from this home obscures the view enough to where a driver has to stick the nose of his/her car all the way out on 11th to be able to see if the way is clear. Obviously, this is dangerous. It could cause an accident with cars, schools busses running to and from Tri-North, or any pedestrian walking down the sidewalk - which, in and of itself, is obscured.
The overgrowth at 913 W. 11th St is obscuring the view for drivers turning from Orris Dr to W. 11th Street t the point where a driver has to pull the nose of his/her car all the way out onto 11th St to see if the way is clear. Obviously, this could cause accidents with other cars, school busses going to/from Tri-North, or pedestrians crossing on the sidewalk.
