We just moved in the corner of N. Maple St. and the alleyway behind 707 W. 7th St. when we drive through the alley there is a lot of overgrowth and the trees are scratching our vehicles if they could be something done about this I would appreciate it both sides of the alley is overgrow with trees and limbs
Looks abandoned with weeds growing up & around vehicles etc
Overgrowth of weeds some almost as tall as the street signs impede being able to see cross traffic. One needs to pull out into the actual street. This corner has always been a problem. This is a bike lane also.
First, thanks for weed removal along Dodds, from Morton to Rogers. This problem is the condition of the Fagan Stone property. It has some wild flowers but is overgrown with weeds, shrubs, small trees, some several feet tall. Never cared for or mowed, it gives the neighborhood a trashy look.
Dir. Hason, HAND. The owner cut down weeds to about 24". The weeds on the sidewalk and overhanging the wall are untouched . There is still trash in the sideyard along Prospect Street Please have staff follow up for a cleanup! Thanks.
rd not mowed all year, no upkeep of property
Hi - there is a massively overgrown yard at this location and the weeds are blocking full access to the sidewalk. To make matters more challenging, the weeds have burrs on them that have hurt our dog. Thank you for your help!
I am writing to report a severe municipal code violation involving excessive environmental growth and hidden accumulation of trash/debris on W. Rappel Ave.The overgrowth along this street has become unmanageable, encroaching upon the roadway and completely taking up roughly one-quarter (25%) of the usable street width. Hidden beneath this thick overgrowth is a substantial accumulation of trash and debris.Because W. Rappel Ave is narrow, this combination creates an immediate and severe public safety hazard:Vehicle Accident Risk: The severe reduction in roadway width forces oncoming vehicles into the center of the street, drastically increasing the risk of head-on collisions.Blind Spots & Physical Damage: Drivers must actively swerve to avoid the overgrowth, or risk vehicle damage from hidden debris and heavy branches.Pedestrian & Environmental Hazard: The hidden trash accumulation acts as a breeding ground for pests and presents a sanitation concern directly adjacent to active commercial businesses.The private developer who retains ownership of this roadway parcel has been explicitly contacted and requested to clear the hazards, but they have refused to comply or take action.As a property and business owner paying City of Bloomington property taxes, I am formally requesting that the Housing and Neighborhood Development (HAND) Department dispatch a Compliance Officer to inspect this parcel, issue a formal Notice of Violation to the deed-holding developer, and enforce the necessary clearing and cleanup of this right-of-way.
