This house has not mowed their grass yet this year. The grass is over a foot tall. I believe the house is empty currently.

Grass is excessively overgrown for weeks
Excessive growth. No cut yet this year. Way over city limitations. A family of foxes has taken us residence in their backyard that is terrorizing the pets in our neighborhood.
Way overgrown lawn that is over a foot high. Have reported two weeks ago and still nothing done. Why is the city not doing more than just issuing citations? This neighbor blatantly has no regard for the law nor the neighborhood.
Occupants said they don't own home and have no obligation to mow, maintain, upkeep, etc. Verified through GIS/Elevate they are owners of record since 2014. Yard has not been cut in 2020. Can't remember last time trees were trimmed. Debris stacked in front yard. Animals (foxes?) living under back deck. Home looks abandoned and is neighborhood eyesore. This same thing happens every year. Responsible homeowners are being penalized for having irresponsible (lazy?) neighbors.
the grass has not been mowed in weeks, at least 10-12 inches high.
No cut to lawn and increase in insects, snakes, and predator animals coming from yard.
bamboo has again encroached on sidewalk. Weeds growing up in gaps on sidewalk make the sidewalk impassible. Pedestrians must walk in 6th Street to get past this house. Cars approaching the intersection on Elm Street must pull into the street to see if traffic is traveling east on 6th. This is a recurrent problem and was not handled by the city the last time I complained. This is plain and simple neglect.
This yard is all bamboo. The bamboo has grown out considerably into the street. and now some the stalks are completely parallel to the road and hang down considerably. Trucks would brush through it whenever. But cars just miss it, unless it rains when it actually is a bit dangerous hitting your car. The sidewalk in front of the house is impassable, too, with a lot of weed growth. Quite the neighborhood eyesore.
This house has been abandoned for at least 2 yrs, roof falling in, neighbors fearful of squatters. What is the status?
