Unsafe Buildings
1116 N COLLEGE AVE
- Case Date:
- 5/24/2017
Dear Sir or Madam:
My wife and I own Shean Properties Ltd. and the property at 1114 North College Avenue in Bloomington.
Directly to the north of our building is 1116 North College Avenue which is owned by Robert Grabbe. His home has been a mess since we acquired this property in 1994.
I believe that Mr. Grabbe has abandoned the building. The postal carrier has told us that homeless people are living inside. The lawn has not been cut in months and I haven’t seen Mr. Grabbe in 3 months.
It is time for the City to exercise its authority under the Unsafe Building Law and remedy this situation. At the very least the grass should be cut and the broken windows boarded up.
Thanks,
John

I live at 608 South Washington. The property just to the south of me has had a large pile of trash sitting out front for several weeks now. It was tagged for non-collection. The parties responsible simply didn't do anything with it afterward. Thank you.

703 E 11th St home has big hole in side window. It looks as if someone threw an object through the window. I saw it on my way to work at 11am, and it was unchanged at 6pm when I returned. No cars in the driveway so I just wanted to be sure whoever owns the house is notified.
