Excessive Growth

large bush on corner of property is very overgrown and interferes with ability to see oncoming traffic out of turn
The bushes block, the sidewalk, and when they’re wet it’s not very nice
There is a large bush/small tree that sticks out in the street so that when you pass there going towards Kinser Pike you have to go over into the other lane of the street. If another car is coming in the opposite direction one has to stop. This needs to be cut way back or removed. It's been that way for a long time.
Overgrown and unkempt lawn. Contains trash and plastic bags. Home looks abandoned and poorly maintained. Overgrowth is unsightly and a danger to those walking down the street (curb access blocked) and to cars trying to safely turn at corner. There have been multiple stray cats in the neighborhood, at least one appears near this property.
Sidewalk near NE corner of lot (along Cottage Grove) is becoming impassible due to invasive shrub overgrowth (an annual occurrence at this location). While they are cutting it back, they might as well also trim back the shrub on the SW corner of the same lot along Grant. It is just starting to be in the way.
Plants are blocking the speed limit sign on Nancy St.
Approximate location. Poison Hemlock in ROW, infringing upon the asphalt. There is no room for a pedestrian to step out off the road without getting tangled up in the brush. No picture this time. Chronic issue in this location.
Plants along sidewalk have grown out enough to impede pedestrians, and they keep growing. Could be responsibility of 713 E. Cottage Grove, or maybe both.
Weeds around the trees
