Trash continues to accumulate outside trash containers on the property and blow into street and neighborhood. Accumulation of trash bags and random debris is a violation of Bloomington Trash and Recycling ordinance: "Accumulated trash is unsanitary and attracts rats and other animals. Properties with accumulations of trash or scattered litter or debris may be issued a Notice of Violation with fines of up to $150."
Pretty confident there is a person living in an old van on the property in the driveway. Is that legal? People are coming and going all day long. Cars parked in the yard. Trash everywhere.
There are on average 6-7 cars parked in the grass and drive. There are piles of trash surrounding the trashcans in the front. They've made a DIY fence made of baby gates, random fences and items they've found. From what I understand they do not rent, but are possibly past an eviction notice. It's possible there is no running water so where are all these people going to the bathroom or water? There are dogs on the property. How are they getting water? The building is falling apart. The city needs to step in and help the owner with this situation. There have been multiple reports on this property, animal control has been at the property regularly.
Trash is all over the yard and blowing throughout the neighborhood.
We had to move due to our rental, not having heat or running water. The hot water heater went out, as well as the heater. Landlord refused to fix. The landlord was notified, and the response was for us to fix it.
This property has accumulated months of trash in front of the residence, from bags of personal trash to full tires. They do not appear to receive city trash removal services and this accumulation of trash bags and random debris is a violation of Bloomington Trash and Recycling ordinance: "Accumulated trash is unsanitary and attracts rats and other animals. Properties with accumulations of trash or scattered litter or debris may be issued a Notice of Violation with fines of up to $150." This attracts pests and is a detriment to the health and safety of the neighborhood.
For over a year now, an unsightly and unsanitary toilet has been parked prominently in the front yard of the property, causing significant distress and potential health hazards to the surrounding residents. This is an eyesore and safety concern. The toilet's presence detracts from the character and well-being of the neighborhood, and despite a previous complaint filed under case number 184694S, no change has been made.
Both Joy and Je d Streets have a number of yards with trash all about, not picked up for a couple of weeks
