re: id=168983 and id=168611 Dee Wills referred to process of abatement of property. Where can I find an explanation of what that means? Also, I have asked in multiple reports if there is a City department or agency that can help me with the next door abandoned (for two years) swimming pool that is stagnant, attracting wildlife, and a perfect breeding place for mosquitoes?
Weeds and grass has been allowed to become wildly overgrown along the drainage ditch at the bottom of the valley in Crestmont Park. There is no reason that should be happening. It's not to prevent erosion. Grass doesn't have to be 3 feet tall to prevent erosion. It just keeps it from drying out and causes it to attract mosquitoes among other things. In addition, invasive vines have climbed and wrapped around many of the trees and many of the trees are surrounded by overgrown areas containing invasive honeysuckle and others. Not acceptable in one of our City parks.
Grass/weeds overgrown. Also tall weeds coming from curb and cracks in street.
Mr. Charles Rondot email that the alley way behind Starbucks that there is a lot of overgrowth of vegetation and litter. Please email the results of your inspection.
Problems at 115 E Sunny Slopes Dr House abandoned for over a year-past owner called, but no action-I am neighbor (at 105) and I mowed the front, but the back is over 24" high-and big problem with pool in back that has not been drained for 2 years or more (serious mosquito threat)
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?
Sidewalk isn’t usable because of tree/hedge growth
I own and live in a property at 118 N. Jackson St. The alley that runs directly by our home (runs parallel between Kirkwood and 6th Street) has become extremely overgrown in the last two years. It's often a dumping ground for clothes, junk and drugs (yes, I have photos of various people hiding items in the brush for others to retrieve). Heretofore, my girlfriend and I are the only people picking things up when clothes and junk are dumped in the alley. I would love a city clean up of brush, limbs, overgrowth and trash and feel like a better looking alley would not lend itself to discarded items so often. I've included one photo from my kitchen window of one (of several) instances in which a seemingly homeless man was hiding/exchanging items in the brush for (what i assume must be) other individuals to find. I of course realize this alley is never going to get a garden award but do believe shaping it up and removing much of the brush would help this situation greatly.
Yard is over grown
Citizen says trash has been laying by the alley (between Lincoln and Grant) at this location since last year. Recently, yard waste has been added to the pile. Current tenants say it is not their trash, therefore not their problem. Citizen says landlord has not been cooperative.
