913 W. 11th St. Trash and junk all over backyard - again.

Case Date:

12/12/2019

1209 West 11th Street This structure is a danger. Several windows are boarded up, the rotten original siding is showing in places, the house is surrounded by debris and the front porch is full of it. If someone is actually living in it, God help them. If someone is, HAND or someone needs to check on the people and the living situation, because they can't possibly be safe and it would be immoral to knowingly allow anyone to live in a house like that.

1212 W. Cottage Grove. There is a For Sale sign on the fence for this...house? Would an inspector *please* do a full inspection of this structure to see if it meets building codes?

In reference to Case# 169421 Jo Stong, today is the 23rd. (913 W. 11th, not 1001. The GIS won't pin 913!)

(See case 168547 for reference) I had a heart attack and quadruple bypass at the age of 40 - that was six years ago. I still suffer from residual problems. Nevertheless, I was out today clearing out a fence line that my neighbor has allowed to grow up with invasive honeysuckle. The guy passed away and the property is in the middle of probate, so there is no one to do anything but me. As I was out in the heat having difficulty breathing, I got mad because I remembered the property that I have been reporting since MAY for piles of trash in the backyard and for overgrowth blocking the wheelchair ramp and driving line of sight - this property being 913 West 11th Street. I can't afford to hire someone, so I work in ways I shouldn't to keep my property nice and respectful to the neighborhood while an attorney for the city uses a property in the same neighborhood for a trash dump. Jo Stong has let this go. Jo Stong has not done her job. Jo Stong has let Michael slide because of his position. Jo Stong has NOT followed protocol with this case. Daily fines should have been given long ago. This property should have been cleaned up long ago - following city protocol, but it hasn't. There is little difference, if any between the trash now and the trash when I first reported it in MAY. Jo Stong closed the initial case as "resolved." This is fraudulent recording. The case has not been resolved or even started to be resolved. I have been watching this property closely because of the severity of the filth and garbage and its safety and health hazard to say nothing about Michael's absolute disrespect to the neighborhood. Whether intentional or not, Jo Stong has been completely ineffective and lazy with this case. I don't now if they will be any more effective, but it's because of this that, as of 6/20/2019, this case, with all of its details and photos, has been reported to IDEM. Note: Your mapping system will not let me place a pin on 913. The address is not 1001 West 11th. It is 913 West 11th.

913 West 11th Street - corner of Orris and West 11th. This house is unoccupied and has become a dumping ground. There are children that live next door and in close proximity to this building. The trash is dangerous, unhealthy, and an attraction for rats and other disease-ridden creatures. In addition, the building itself is derelict and unsafe.

Case Date:

Trash/Illegal Dumping - 913 West 11th Street. This house is unoccupied. Paths into the backyard are clear and worn indicating fresh traffic into the yard. Look at photo. I believe that the trash may be being dumped there.

Case Date:

5/30/2019

913 W. 11th is STILL not cleaned up. The overgrowth is STILL not cut back to where the line of site is clear to turn from Orris to 11th. You have warned. You have fined. Now what is the problem? The house is unoccupied and is used by the owner for nothing but storage - or should I say dump. The trash is unsanitary, unhealthy, dangerous to the children living next door, can attract rodents and other disease-ridden animals, and is completely disrespectful to the neighborhood.
