mattress, furniture and trash in front yard
Line of sight obstruction at Smith and Buckner NE and NW corner.
On Morton Street, between 6th and 7th Street, on the West side of the road, the storm inlet has sunk and there is a small void to the side of it.
Received complaint of couch on roof. Also tall grass.
There is graffiti on the west side of this structure. it says "F*** the BPD and IUPD" There is also other grafitti on the structure that is not as offensive.
There is a growing pile of garbage behind and alongside the house of 501 S. Mitchell. This adjoins a walkway that links two parts of Hunter Ave and it's just above a waterway that feeds into Jordan River. Reporter is concerned about rats and other sanitation issues that could occur if left untreated.
There is a dead possum at the corner of 7th and Morton, on the farther side away from College.
Trash: "We are located at the corner of Washington and Kirkwood. We have complained over and over about the trash from the Chinese restaurant behind us. It is an eyesore to our community. It has been going on for years and no one wants to take responsibility for asking them to clean up their area. Please fine them or what ever you can do. Thank you."
"Dear Mr. Hamilton, As my council representative has been ineffective and unsuccessful in dealing with this problem, I am calling on your office for help. For over two years the resident of 1316 South Palmer Avenue has been running a used car lot at his house. There are usually no less than six cars parked in front of his house and across the street from his house at any one time. At least one or two usually have no plates. In addition, his yard is a total mess. He doesn't care about the trash that accumulates in it. If this were a problem in Elm Heights, it would have been taken care of in one day. I understand that one can sell a car from one's property, but this man needs to find a lot that is zoned for selling multiple used cars, and move his business to that place. Please help in moving this used car lot from our street. It is an eye sore and it brings down my property value. The rest of the houses in that block, and on Palmer are very well maintained and clean. Thank you very much in advance for your attention to this matter. Best regards, Michael McCafferty"
