At least one large tree-of-heaven growing on the south property line of this lot, surrounded by many other invasive plants that are overgrown and starting to impede the sidewalk.
Possible trees-of-heaven on the north end of lot along the alley. Very large. Please check.
Sofa and garbage cans blocking sidewalk. No way for wheelchair user to safely get around.
mattress and some other things have been piled underneath the scaffolding and awning of the old Tempo/Princess Theater building on 200N Walnut st
"Campus Walk - Grant North" apartment building has tree-of-heaven (!) growing around its dumpster on the NE corner of the lot by the alley. There are small ones, but also a very large one that is the source of the problem.
This has been reported previously, but somehow the girl they sent the last time (the one who relies on an "app") missed it. Japanese knotweed is growing on the south end of the lot behind the shack out back along the alley and is invading the adjacent property from the SW corner of the lot. Also, the attempt to remove the knotweed from the west side of the house has failed - it grew up immediately after being cut at the base. Of course, cutting knotweed only makes it spread. Assumption is that was clearly communicated to the property owner by HAND. Also, burdock is growing on the south half of the east side of the property.
The board material that has been placed in front of the Princess Theatre during construction is warping and unsafe. An individual just fell all the way to the ground from tripping on the uneven surface at 1:45pm. The material also appears as if it would be very slick when wet. Very unsafe.
There is a cracked hole in this parking lot that goes very deep into the ground. This doesn’t look man made and may be a potential sinkhole as this is not a pothole. I don’t know the property maanager as I was just walking through the lot, but it does seem to need immediate attention.
Many invasive plants (mimosa, tree-of-heaven, burdock, etc.) growing on the south and west side of this house. Property is habitually unkempt, but the general lax enforcement for Parker Rental properties has resulted in this location becoming truly a serious eyesore.
North side of lot along alley is overgrown with huge vines growing up the trees (wintercreeper, ivy, etc.) that are a hazard. Also, bush honeysuckle and tree-of-heaven growing on east property line in the back near the alley, growing into neighboring property.
