Excessive Growth
1000 W Countryside LN
- Case Date:
- 6/11/2019
yard overgrown
The vacant northwest parcel located at the Countryside Lane and Starview Lane intersection is severely overgrown with noxious weeds and grass. Snakes and rodents are frequently seen in the area and many small children live in nearby homes.
Property has not been mowed all year, dangerous
My neighbor has let her excessively overgrown weeds turn into trees that are on the roof of my house. I want her to take care of the over growth along our property line.
The neighbors in shadow creek would like to see the city be more proactive in persuading the owner of this building lot to keep the grass mowed and remove the invasive trees that have grown out of the ponding water. The ponding happens after each rain and is a health issue for the residents, and a safety issue for kids on this street. This lot has looked like this for years as the 2 doctor investors that owned it previously were not inclined or forced to maintain it or properly fill it in. Anything you can do to help protect our property values by threatening fines and actions against the owner would be much appreciated. thank you, shadow creek residents.
Excessive growth is just for starters. The yard is nothing but overgrowth - noxious weeds, invasive honeysuckle. This is a CITY lot, not the county. In addition, I question the safety of the building and the property itself. The condition of this property violates numerous city codes and it not acceptable in my neighborhood - my CITY neighborhood.
Update for id=168611 notice indicated that the ticket was closed based on promise by owner to mow week of 6/10 today's date is 6/17 and no mowing has taken place also: who do I approach about pool (in backyard of same abandoned residence) that has not been drained/treated in two years and is attracting wildlife?
Tick heaven. There is no. It is nothing but invasive honeysuckle and weeds. I have to keep cutting it back on my property line because it continues to infringe. There are 5 children living in that house. That's their business to run the run of lyme disease and West Nile, but I don't like it being a spawning ground near me. And now the CDC has released a report about these "kissing bugs." The City code refers to "noxious weeds." They got 'em.
