Excessive Growth
712 E COTTAGE GROVE AVE

This is a request for advice- not notifying of an issue. The home we purchased has a lot of overgrowth: trees, bushes, some poison ivy, and invasive plant species like some of the honeysuckles. We have already started removing some and have a very large pile (when we are finished, it will probably fill a large roll-off dumpster). What does the city typically do when they are clearing brush? Do you chip it or does that just spread the problem items further? Or do you know of any companies that might pick up for a price? Any advice is appreciated. Thank you! Christine
Trash scattered over property
Scattered trash over property
This empty lot is extremely overgrown.
School speed zone signal has been out since school started and traffic is speeding by at 40 in the mornings.
Winslow Woods has overgrown into the sidewalk along Azalea making it impassable. Residents and students walking to South are forced to walk on the road.
Do private contractors have an obligation to clean up the street? This house on Southdowns (between Manor and Hawthorne) was paved and the street is a mess. It is not just stained, there is a lot of loose debris on the road from the paving process that could be cleaned up. Can the City contact the homeowner to find out who needs to get back out here to clean the street up and make their job site presentable? Thanks.
A small tree in the median along the creek has fallen over. This is on Southdowns just west of Hawthorne.
There is a pile of debris sitting along the edge of the road. This is on the east side of Manor Road, where Manor runs between Southdowns and Sheridan as it crosses over the creek. This looks like debris that came from the creek, maybe during a high water time. It just needs to be removed and cleaned up.
