large area of unmowed grass and weeds
A Red Chevy Cavalier has been blocking W. 8th Street (dead end side going toward Adams) for almost 2 weeks. It appears to be abandoned with the license plate removed. The rear end is heavily damaged and the owner left a note in the back windshield.
Huge hole in the road on the corner of 8th and Fountain.
Overgrown trees at Fountain Drive and N Adams force pedestrians and kids on bikes into the street. The city trees need to be trimmed and trained.

o.w., can exceeds size limit
Extreme, excessive growth and noxious weeds permeating the property.
The property owner is not taking care of the yard. Grass and weeds are well above the 8 inch limit. Yard has not been mowed at all yet this year. The photo submitted is the way the whole yard looks and is a very large lot. This same thing happened last year.
This property is once again in violation of grass and weeds being above the 8 inch limit. Complaints were filed a month ago, and while the property owner did cut a portion of their yard (which ended up looking horrible and then had turkey vultures in it) they did not cut all of it. They part they did not cut in the backyard is many feet high now, and the part they did cut is back up over the 8 inch limit. Maybe a mowing service should be suggested to the owner. Hopefully they are facing higher violation fees since this is an ongoing issue. Also before tickets are closed, there should be a check that the whole yard was taken care of, not just part of it.
