Kathy was transferred to my voice mail by PW on 6/2. She said there is work starting to be done there today and they were not notified. They have lots of issues and she was told I've been with the city a long time and hopefully I know the history of this.
Received this complaint information from Angie Grubb. She said this gentleman called on 6/4/14 to complain about runoff. He just bought the house and there is a swale that takes runoff from Maxwell Terrace but his neighbor put bricks in the swale causing the water to run onto his property. Is this legal?
The property 616 N Plymouth Rd has not been occupied for many years. (We have lived at our current address for over 19 years.) While the grass is mowed, there is now a dead tree on the side of the property that periodically falls into Beacon Ct after storms. In addition, there is a broken window in the front and evidence of animals inside. The entire property is slowly decaying and is becoming quite an eyesore.
Dead tree across from 301 S. Cory Lane.
Trash on the front deck.
Trash along the side of the house.
Caller complained of a dying tree in the tree plot with dead limbs that could possibly fall and injure someone walking down the sidewalk.
