Overgrowth and trees on this property encroach significantly on the sidewalk making pedestrian access difficult. In addition, the property is overrun with highly invasive plants, including tree of heaven, multiflora rose, and many others.
Can the city conduct a review of the historic preservation board? There is little to no predictability, and I'm confused what purposes the city has for the group. Who do they represent? They don't seem to favor property owners or take cost into consideration but they also don't seem to favor the public by thinking what would the public want to save. And they don't favor the neighbors (and shouldn't because it shouldn't be just about making folks rich enough to own historic homes richer) as they don't listen to them either? Who do they listen to? And what are they saving for who? There should definitely be protection, I'd just like to know better what their goals are. I don't know if the group functions as intended.
I recently purchased a house, but the easement property behind (Duke) has been a debris pit for somebody in the neighborhood. It seems to be mostly leaves on top, but there are also tires & chairs floating inside.The pile is starting to slide into my property. I am not sure what to do, since it is easement property. I would like to eventually put up a fence in the back, but the sliding debris pile would problem ruin any ability to do that. If this department cannot help with this situation, please direct me to a department that can. Rebecca Rice
Trash is accumulating both in front and back of the household
Two sofa have been sitting beside the dumpster behind Kirkwood Village Apartments for weeks. I have called Parker Management to report this issue; the sofa remain. This is not an uncommon occurrence as this dumpster is frequently overloaded and trash blows all over the neighborhood.
Discarded mattress in front, on Kirkwood. It's been there over a week. Parker Management is unresponsive, a terrible neighbor!
Sofa and other debris around dumpster. The owner was cited weeks ago. Still there and more now.
Trash all over, particularly back yard, visible from alley
Trash in on both the 6th St side and the Elm street frontage
Bamboo untrimmed growing over 20 ft tall, stalks drooping into neighbor's yard.
