Severely overgrown property, with weeds and invasive plants. Way beyond allowed city limits on overgrowth. Drivers are unable to see around corner when at the stop sign, and pedestrians unable to pass without brushing weeds. Animals are seen around property. Possible fire hazard in summer.
This rental is owned by out-of-town landlords who, at one time, lived in the house. The back yard is severely overgrown and has been for years, even when they lived there. There are many towering trees along the west side of the property, with many, many dead branches on them. At least one entire tree has been dead for years (in violation of city ordinance) yet the landlords do nothing about it. This line of trees is about 15 feet from the house to the west of it, and a windstorm could bring them crashing onto that house and/or through its windows. The bushes and shrubbery are overgrown and have been for years, spilling onto neighboring properties. The grass and weeds are tall, in violation of city ordinance. The yard has only been mowed 2 or 3 times all year. It rarely gets mowed, even when the house is rented. Yard waste sits around in piles, sometimes for years, and never gets disposed of. There is junk and trash (in violation of city ordinance) -- a broken window frame has sat in the weeds against a fence for years; broken lattice from the deck has sat in the weeds against the house for years; a lawn mower sits out in the elements in the weeds; a gas can sitting in the weeds. Other objects are in the weeds, but the weeds are so tall you can't tell what the objects are. Tall weeds against all the fences, never get cut. Some kind of wire from the power poles has fallen and is touching the ground for over a year. Landlords do nothing. The property is an unsightly mess and constitutes a nuisance property which warrants legal action.
Landlord hasn’t mowed grass in months
Yard needs mowed. Grass is very tall.
t I am writing to report a severe public nuisance and hazardous property condition at 1711 S Highland Ave . Following last week's storm, a large tree on the owner's property fell down. The resulting debris—including the massive tree trunk and multiple large branches—has been left piled up directly by my yard line. This accumulation is attracting pests, rodents, and snakes into my yard, interfering with the safe enjoyment of my property. Furthermore, the neighboring yard is completely overgrown with large clusters of Poison Hemlock (Conium maculatum). This is a highly toxic, prohibited invasive species that poses a severe chemical burn and ingestion risk to humans and domestic animals. The plants are well over the city's 8-inch growth limit and are spreading toward my property line. I attempted to address these safety hazards with the property owner directly, but she refused to cooperate or permit further contact. Because of the immediate health and safety hazards posed by both the structural storm debris and the toxic vegetation, I request an inspection from the HAND Department to issue a Notice of Violation and enforce removal.

Also has had signs of vagrancy with clothing and trash left behind. At our building we've seen more folks now resting on our stoop (ring camera) after hours and on weekends. Assuming this is a result of them not being able to access the next door property. My non-profit is a tenant of the building.
