The Stratum has left a fallen tree on Abodes property (Grove at Latimer 940 S Clarizz Blvd) since July 2024 when a storm knocked it over. The Abodes crew is unable to mow around the tree. Its falling apart and beginning to rot. Something needs to be done about it. I have tried resolving this with both parties and nothing has happened because both claim it is not their responsibility.
Trash bags on property for a while. Bags are starting to be torn open and scattered.
"Tree-Keeper" database reports 56 Ailanthus altissima ("tree of heaven") trees being maintained by the City. Given this is an invasive plant and is known to be the primary food source for Lycorma delicatula (spotted lanternfly), should the City be obliged to remove these trees that are listed on the State list: ("Prohibited Invasive Terrestrial Plants [312 IAC 18-3-25]", https://ag.purdue.edu/department/entm/iisc/invasive-plants.html) ? If HAND is going to proactively threaten residents by "asking" them to remove something that is not on the State list (e.g., bamboo), it seems profoundly hypocritical for them to not address a serious ecological issue that they are helping to advance.
Japanese knotweed on property speading into neighbor's yard.
trash bags piling up outside of residence, covered with tarp; becoming exposed: including food products and trash bags torn open. Problem is getting worse.
They are pouring drinks and liquid (not water) including straws, limes, plastic from cups into the sewage drain by the building.
Trash strewn on north side of property
The front porch rails are broken out, the rails appear to be unstable, sagging and possibly rotted. The porch sets up high above grade where the porch rails are out. There is a young child living in the house. This presents a danger. Jeff Jones/Pendragon owns this property. This has been the case for the past 2+ years. This family is a new renter and this was not repaired between renters.
Japanese knotweed (prohibited plant) growing on north end of lot, close to and visible from the alley. Another opportunity for HAND to connect with residents and make more friends.
