Three corners on 11th and Monroe have overgrown grass and weeds. Ms. LaGrange says that Dick Wells forces them to continually file complaints with our office in order to have him take care of his properties.
BPD Office Bob Neely called in to say there is high grass behind Kleindorfer's between Kirkwood & 6th Street.
Tenant, Carolyn, called to say she has complained about vines growing up to her 2nd floor apt. Las month when she went to the office to pay her rent she asked again to cut the vines that are taking over her deck. The office told they would not be cutting the bushes below because there is a nest of snakes. Left msg at landlord office of appt. at 3:00 on 7/2/2010
The lot is behind and adjacent to 3209 Autumn Drive. The citizen stated the owner, who she thinks is Eric Stolberg, has maintained the lot for the past 5 years but has not done anything so far this year. She has contacted his office but has received no help. The grass is very high. She would like for someone to call her and let her know the status of the complaint.
The vacant lot close to Cambridge Square, when walking toward the Post Office near I-45, has weeds overgrowing the sidewalk.
I received an email from Ms. Henderson stating the following: "Hi Jane. I want to post you on the condition of the storm water drain beehive in the City's drainage easement within the Brigs Bend cul de sac in Hyde Park. Specifically, I want to bring to your attention to the erosion around the beehive at the northeast corner of the two lots you looked at last year (2712 Olcott and 2737 E. Brigs Bend). On September 10, we had another heavy rain that created a flash flood in our back yard, flooding nearly up to our deck and again flooding Ginny Field’s storage unit under the house (the debris line on her door was just below the 25" mark, the highest level we’ve seen the water rise to). As you can see from the attached photos, the ground around the beehive is cratering as a result of the water erosion. This area is of increasing concern with regard to the potential hazard it presents to children, landscapers, and others who go near. Would you be able to take a look at it and advise? Also, could you please take a look at two small but growing holes (and a third depressed area that seems to be sinking) in the south corner of our lots near the tall, narrow green cable box. We are concerned that the this may be indicative of soil washing out along the storm water drain line. Again, your advice is appreciated."
Mr. Michael called several times this morning and, at times, was angry and belligerent. He said he is being "discriminated against" because the prosecutor's office will not give him another extention on a speeding ticket. Diane suggested he talk to Barbara McKinney.
Called OOTM after speaking to Public Works. Had a number of complaints about the city phone system, the county phone system and the post office. Continued to ask questions but was not satisfied with any of the information I gave her. Finally hung up on me.
Mrs. Schlegel called to express concern over the scheduling of the BT Access. She apparently has had repeated problems with the BT Access coming late, and says that when she called into the office, the personnel in the office were rude to her by telling her she should call a taxi if she wanted to be picked up faster. Also, she apparently got the idea the staff in the office were telling her that using her disabilities do not warrant riding the BT Access. She commended the drivers however.
