Hello, this is the third time I have submitted a complaint about this property. My neighbor sent me this photo via text last night. The owner’s family members think they’re clever by “solving the problem” of removing old mattresses on the front porch. We were all thrilled to think they finally had the two stained mattresses properly hauled away. Instead, they just moved them to the crumbling back porch with its sagging roof. If there was a fire, heaven forbid, and they had to quickly use the back door to leave a burning building, they would be delayed by the old, stained mattresses. In addition to the owner, there is a tenant named James (who also goes by Jimmy) living at the house. He is intellectually challenged, yet seems to be the only person seen pushing home owner Carl up the sidewalk and/or street, in a seated walker. Carl’s health has visibly declined since the beginning of 2025. This family is flipping the bird at City inspectors and us, the neighbors who have to look at their mess, and have for years. I will keep filing reports until owner Carl James, his 16 grandchildren and namesake son CJ (Carl Junior) finally takes these infractions seriously. Thank you for your work.

I took this iPhone photo Friday night, as discreetly as I could, before it got completely dark. I count six vehicles on the grass in the backyard. If you zoom in, you can see the bent metal (above the burgundy car) where the back roof has partially collapsed. There is also a large tree growing through the left side of the collapsed roof (not pictured). This house is uninhabitable. Several neighbors, myself included, believe there is no running water since one of the tenants urinates on the lawn. I’m shocked that the roof hasn’t completely caved in. Someone is going to get hurt if this isn’t addressed and fixed.
