Property owner dug a huge pit in the front yard and then just partially covered it with thin plywood leaving a portion of the pit exposed and a large, unsightly pile of dirt next to it. People or animals could easily fall into the pit and be trapped or hurt. Please ask owner to stop dragging down the neighborhood and finish any jobs he starts so that others are not put in danger.
There is a "Republic" dumpster in the parking lot on the east side of this building that has a drain hole on the side that is missing a plug. Rats routinely enter and exit the drain hole of the dumpster and are running all over the parking lot at night. Can the City force the trash people to keep dumpsters in a reasonable condition so that they do not attract and sustain vermin? Note: leaving poison outside does nothing and only serves to harm other animals. Best to seal the dumpsters and keep the garbage contained.
Ongoing construction project - workers have been leaving rubbish in a pile in front of the house for months.
There is water constantly flowing out of the ground on the alley east of 213 E. Cottage Grove about 40 feet north of the street. The water is bubbling up and flowing south to the street then flowing east to Lincoln. When it was cold recently a glacier formed there that was dangerous to walk or drive on. It i now getting swampy there - still dangerous but in a different way. Both City Utilities and property owner were notified, but it is not clear if anyone has determined where the water is coming from. Good to check the meters in the area, e.g., 701 N. Lincoln, 700 N. Washington, 706 N. Washington for any unexpectedly high usage.
