Abandoned Vehicle
805 N Oolitic Dr, Bloomington, Indiana, 47404
- Case Date:
- 5/20/2019
As a repeat of case #168433, since it was filed May 8th and the issue has not been resolved....There is a white Jeep SUV type vehicle abandoned in plain public view at the front edge of the property along the street at 801 N. Oolitic St. This vehicle does not operate and has been sitting, unmoved, for at least six months, if not a year. The vehicle is not directly on the street, it sits in the grass at the edge of the road - technically a city right-of way. Nevertheless....to quote city ordinance 15.04.020-Abandoned Vehicle(6) "Abandoned vehicle" means "A vehicle that is three or more model years old (it is), and mechanically inoperable (it is), and is left on private property continuously in a location visible from public property for more than twenty days (it absolutely is clearly visible from my property, every neighbors' property, and any passerby.) Whether anything like the engine, transmission, or differential has been removed is unknown to me, but it may also fit under definition (4) of "abandoned vehicle." This vehicle is an eyesore to myself and my neighbors. Please take the necessary measures to have it removed. Thank you.
