closed: Resolved #210479

Excessive Growth:

Other: I live at 1905 S Hawksmoore Drive. The house located across the street at 1910 S Hawksmoore Drive has been vacant since the owners purchased a new property in May of 2023. They also own the vacant lot at 1914 S Hawksmoore which is next door. The owners typically due the minimum to maintain this property. The garbage bins have been out front for 3 years. This spring the woodpeckers are continuing to poke holes in the siding and the Terminix worker believes it is the source of rodents. They have not cut the grass this year. Could you send someone to follow up? Thanks

https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=210479 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
