Trash bags lying on ground by street. In view of Grant Street Inn.
The apartment and restaurant trash outside of dumpsters. I'm letting the health dept. know as well. In the alley between Maye's Grill Express and Samira. Issue behind Maye's (between Maye's and Health Dept.) in the apartment trash area.
The trash was not picked up from the curb this morning. The trash was full so there is a high risk of animals getting into it.
Both Japanese knotweed and tree-of-heaven are growing together on the *east* lot-line of this property, possibly extending to neighboring lot (315 E. 11th), though not clear which property is the culprit invader and which the invaded. Plants are in leaf, actively growing, and easily seen from sidewalk - a perfect opportunity for HAND inspectors to learn to identify and distinguish between these two highly-invasive species.
Large tree-of-heaven growing on NE corner of lot alongside the alley and Grant Street, though cited in City ROW. This tree sends out so many seed every year, that properties close by regularly fight new growth. Very easy to see this tree, but best to send a HAND member who has had formal training to identify tree-of-heaven, else it might be missed...
Large shrub (bush honeysuckle?) at NE corner of lot has grown so much that it is now difficult to pass using the sidewalk on Cottage Grove. The property owner/manager (sign in yard says "Thatcher Real Estate") never shovels the sidewalk in the winter, but maybe the snow/ice complaints submitted to HAND earlier this year never made it to them. Probably good to be more proactive about this report, since the shrub is not going to just melt on its own like the snows did...
Perhaps already reported, but just adding concern: several potholes in a row on the south edge of the 12th/Grant Streets intersection. Also, there's one a bit west of the intersection on the south side of 12th, one that could catch a wheel and/or topple a bicyclist.
Deep pothole on right side of the road when heading west
