This property is an abandoned building project. It has an open pit that needs to be filled, trash to picked up, property maintained, and electirical wires disconnected. Children play near this site often and it is very unsafe for anyone to be around.
Masonry pillars supporting roof and second floor balcony have recently shifted and are leaning.
Ms. Foster reports that the structure (garage) located at the NW corner of Maple and Smith is not sealed and the roof on the garage is falling in. Small children are playing inside the garage. She is afraid that someone will get hurt.
Garage/shed type structure with roof falling in, has two large metal doors. One of the metal doors is coming off the hinges and Ms. Worley is concerned that the wind will blow the door off and into the street possibly hurting someone. She also noted that the owner does not live there.
Unsafe structure at rear of this property.
(Not sure if address correct) Gate at Public Transit lot where buses pull in is broken. Said children get in there after hours to play in sand & on equipment. Residents & parents of children living in neighborhood are concerned for children's safety. Would like gate repaired ASAP.
