Grass and weeds to top of fence, small children living in home not safe to be outside in the yard
Grass and weeds to top of fence, small children living in home not safe to be outside in the yard
For a few days every week, this sidewalk is covered with grass cuttings which can create hazards for using the sidewalk especially after it rains. Not sure who cares for the lawn.
Overgrown grass has not been cut
The trash was not picked up from the curb this morning. The trash was full so there is a high risk of animals getting into it.
My neighbor move out of that house that lawn get longer
Both Japanese knotweed and tree-of-heaven are growing together on the *east* lot-line of this property, possibly extending to neighboring lot (315 E. 11th), though not clear which property is the culprit invader and which the invaded. Plants are in leaf, actively growing, and easily seen from sidewalk - a perfect opportunity for HAND inspectors to learn to identify and distinguish between these two highly-invasive species.
Resident at 404 left a Couch discarded outside.
The yard, front and back, is overgrown and badly in need of a lawnmower.
Large tree-of-heaven growing on NE corner of lot alongside the alley and Grant Street, though cited in City ROW. This tree sends out so many seed every year, that properties close by regularly fight new growth. Very easy to see this tree, but best to send a HAND member who has had formal training to identify tree-of-heaven, else it might be missed...
