The back yard of the property is full of trash and it is scattering to the adjoining properties. Can someone from the City come and take a look at the problem.

This entire alley has large potholes throughout that need patched. Pictured is the largest. There are more on the south Madison side.
The top of the roadway is missing right where the double white lines should be at the right side of the road heading south. If this got any wider it would cause a hazard on Sare road and possibly result in a head on collision given there is nowhere to maneuver at that spot.
Trash has been scattered across the entire driveway for months with piles of more trash accumulating outside next to garage. Excessive growth to the point it looks like the movie setting for I Am Legend. After each storm large branches fall into street and are not picked up until neighbors just do it themselves. With the persistent amount of disregard to upkeep the outside it’s worrisome if there are hazards inside.

Wow - how can this rental be allowed to remain in this condition? MANY violations here. Trash, food, animals, car parts, unclothed children - and that is just the front yard.
The pavement on our cul-de-sac has been deteriorating for a year or more in a few spots. I am requesting some repair on this on Eva Hill Drive in Renwick subdivision.
The property needs to be inspected by a City official and repaired or condemned. Under Bloomington Municipal Code Chapter 17.16, a building is considered unsafe if it is: Structurally Impaired: Posing a danger to persons or neighboring property. Unsanitary: Lacking adequate ventilation, light, or sanitation to protect health. Observing this property over the last 18 months, there has been no change in this property, except that the condition is getting worse. Locals state the home has been in derelict conditions for many years. Damaged roof. A tarp does not constitute a roof. There is no ventilation in the house or working exhausts. Windows do not open/close. No heating or cooling in the structure. Dangerous electrical resulting in the occasional use of a small light. No plumbing in the structure. Resident carries buckets of water from nearby and can be seen washing his hair and body outside of his front porch. No functional bathroom inside the home. Occupant cannot flush waste properly. The entire place appears to be a fire hazard. Evidence of structural fire damage that may also impact the electrical and plumbing concerns. Overgrowth vegetation and weeds. Inoperable vehicles in front and behind the unsafe structure. The severe neglect of this property is diminishing the quality of life for the community and hindering its overall desirability. The dilapidated condition of the property presents a substantial public eyesore and poses a detriment to the neighborhood character. Please take action to keep Bloomington beautiful and avoid causing a serious decline in neighborhood standards for the entire City of Bloomington.
