closed: Can't Fix #206558

Excessive Growth:

Other: I inherited the home next door which is 5916 South Phyllis St Bloomington IN 47403. I am trying to sell the property but the Realtors have indicated that the condition of the neighbor’s yard next door 5918 is severely devaluating all the homes on the street. There are trucks and junk and weeds in the yard. Other neighbors keep up their yards. Thank you for helping us with this situation.We have already contacted the Monroe Ordinance violation office and they recommended we also contact your office.

https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=206558 Opened by Anonymous Dear Constituent: Thank you for submitting information to us via uReport. We value your input and hope that we will be able to address your questions and concerns. HAND neighborhood compliance officers will inspect the property and determine if the weeds, grass or plants are in violation of the Bloomington Municipal Code 6.06.070 (a). In the event of a violation, the neighborhood compliance officer will issue a Notice of Violation (NOV) to the property owners via first class mail and by placing a copy of the notice of violation on the property. The original Notice of Violation may be a warning or may include fines with a graduated scale from $50.00 - $150.00, and will be issued in accordance with Bloomington Municipal Code 6.06.070 (a). If the property is a rental property and it is the tenants' responsibility to maintain the lawn, the landlord must provide a copy of the signed lease to HAND during the initial seven days following the issuance of the NOV, otherwise the Landlord will remain responsible for paying the fine. After the Notice of Violation is issued, the property owner and/or tenant has seven (7) days to bring the property into compliance. If the property is not brought into compliance within the initial seven (7) days, the inspector may go to daily tickets. Please be mindful of this process while we work with your neighbors to resolve this issue. Thank you, HAND staff
