City Performance

Case Date:
8/26/2016

For years I have problems with my neighbor's trash in my yard. His cans are on Habitat Street, his own private dump, despite a City Ordinance prohibiting it. He does not empty his trashcans, he does not cover them; animals take trash to nearby yards and other parts of City property. In the past, Wykoff was not helpful, and Mayor Kruzan was not interested, and the police had other priorities. Recently it has bounced around in City bureaucracy for months: HAND, the Street Department, back to HAND, over to Title VI, back to HAND, and back to the Street Department, which they will not enforce the Ordinance. Trash still appears in my yard. There must be organizational and management issues, but the results are the same: no solutions. The appearance is either incompetence or corruption. I am tired of the run-around; I have lost the use of my property and it's full value. I just want the cans moved back on his property, away from mine. If the cans are not a real problem, then they can not be a real problem on his own property. The next escalation goes to the Police Department, the Herald-Times, or the Courts.

Yard Waste

Case Date:
8/26/2016

Our neighbor has been dumping motor oil in our yard for years. We haven't repoted it in fear of reprizals, but he is poising our trees. To truly "catch him" for remediation costs for example, do we need an actual photo of him doing it? He is the only one doing mechanic work (LOTS!) on our street, and we live right next to him. I am afraid for our health.
