Calling about recent case (see below). Problem persists. #188267 Excessive Growth Case Date: 5/5/2024 The owner of (corner house) 1706 E Second Street only mows half his lawn. The half that borders 607 S Eastside Drive has not been kept up. If he keeps doing this, the grass will be knee high by August.
Invasives in the right of way, the north property line, and along the creek including privet, poison ivy, burning bush, & multiflora rose.
Citizen called about tree across the street from her residence. Tree is enormous by her standards and a potential hazard for a single family rental adjacent to tree. By her summation the tree is a "when it falls" as opposed to an "if it falls." Can we, should we do anything?
U-report 191557 says resolved. My opinion not this overgrowth is in the faces of the service. I hire to mow the city alley. If I have to remove snow from sidewalks in the winter for safety, this overgrowth is a hazard. It contains poison ivy and is very close to falling into my off street parking. Civic duty take care of it homeowners.
Over grown yard, weeds, trash can at curb all week, delivery/Amazon boxes pile around house, litter/cans in driveway and road curbs
