Dead tree in City ROW along Washington Street.
Dead tree in City ROW along Washington Street.
Trash scattered about on north side of property along 11th Street. Wild animals digging through it.
We are wondering if the E/W stretch of concrete between 707 N. Lincoln and 711 N. Lincoln is an alley (public thoroughfare) or a driveway (private property). If the former, the resident/tenant at 707 has blocked passage through it with stones and a basketball court. We have assumed for a long time that this is actually an alley and would like to be able to walk down this stretch, but if it is indeed private property we would like that made clear so that we not trespass.
Pile of mattresses and bedding lying by sidewalk
Many shoes hanging from utility wires crossing street in front of this address.
Trash scattered about all over the city right-of-way in front of house
Poison ivy and other invasive plants are growing out of property, blocking the sidewalk and also growing up into the trees (SE corner of lot on Lincoln side)
There is a hollow maple tree on city property at the corner of East 11th Street and Walnut Street. There is currently an active bee hive in it. Given how close the tree is to houses in the area, the fact that the tree is hollow is cause for concern. If the tree and the bee hive could be assessed, that would be appreciated. Thank you!
We watched as a swarm of bees relocated themselves to a large Maple tree at the corner of 11th and Washington. We are not concerned having the bees around, and love the tree, but have some concern for the health of the tree. The bees entered the tree through several openings, so it is obviously hollow to some extent. I am asking if you have someone to assess the tree since it is on city property. Thank you.
Excessive growth
