Theres is excessive growth of bushes and branches all over this lot. In the summer, there is poison ivy and the overgrowth blocks the sidewalk. There is also a dead tree leaning towards the neighbouring house. This is a concern because a tree next to this one fell during the December storm. The lot address does not have a number: it is on W Cottage Grove Av between 1208 and 1212.
320 e 7th st has a lot of poison ivy growing along and into sidewalk on the grant street side of the property
Weeds and overgrown sidewalk area at 1313 W. Woodhill Drive. Old furnace filters sitting near garage all summer. Vacant house. Needs cleaned up.
Overgrown bamboo at 1002 W 6 St and Elm bending into sidewalks and street obstructing traffic. Bird droppings covering the sidewalk. The invasive plant has encroached on neighboring property where we live at 1004, so we are having to engage removal services and eventually install impermeable barriers at our expense. The back yard of 1002 is overgrown also, feral cats, possum and a skunk have been sited or smelled in a fallen shed which has not been cleared out. The Elm Street side of 1002 is full of debris and overgrowth and there is an unattended stagnant water feature where we hear frogs in the summer (which do attract copperhead snakes). Someone does seem to be inhabiting the house, though we know that the owner of the house does not reside in Indiana presently.
out on west 3rd street at the intersection of 3rd & yancy, there's a vacant business building, & the yard hasn't been mowed yet this year. i think it used to be "B&L communications". as i walk by the front on the public sidewalk, the weeds are up to my waist. one time recently after dark, i could tell there was an animal scurrying around in there, but i couldn't see what it was since it was hidden. felt scary to walk by there, but i have to because of my situation with where i live & work.
Not clear which address to use. City-created, grassy area in traffic-control sidewalk extension into the street needs mowing. SW corner of Grant/9th. Is this the responsibility of adjacent property owners? If so, would that be Plantation North Apartments, apparently now being referred to as "Campus Walk North" (CRE Rentals)?
There is a City-owned tree in the ROW that is completely covered in vines, some of which are poison ivy. The vines are right next to the sidewalk, and are so high that the vine is going to seed. Is this the responsibility of the adjacent property owner, or does the City attend to its own trees?
The management company has not trimmed the thistle/weeds growing along the driveway and sidewalk and they have become unsightly and hazardous.
Trees encroaching sidewalk. Also bamboo, for which this house has been cited is not abated, when will that be enforced?
