Writer wants to know why the 75-100 years old osage-orange tree that was in Ninth St Park was cut down. This was a beautiful tree, showed no signs of illness, and was one of the largest of its species left in the county. (see e-mail).
Blue Ford (old complaint at same address) is gone, BUT now we have cars parking on the lawn (backyard) and in some instances blocking the alley. Can you see what can be done? 3 of the 4 houses on that block use the gravel alley to reach the parking behind their houses.
Masonry pillars supporting roof and second floor balcony have recently shifted and are leaning.
Quantity of construction waste and old kitchen equipment in and around their fenced dumpster on the NE corner of lot. Area looks bad and it has forced them to move dumpster out of fenced area. Please take a look and let me know what you think.
The Grandview Neighborhood has contacted Council Member Matt Pierce about the construction noise coming from the rock smashers at the Don Mitchell property. Apparently the construction has been going well into the night seven days a week. It appears that if the equipment has factory mufflers then construction equipment is exempted from the ordinance. Matt wanted HAND to try some gentle suasion and appeals to being a good neighbor. He is also looking into amending the ordinance.
