West end of the retaining wall on north side of the property (Cottage Grove side) has degraded so much so that the capstone is no longer supported by underlaying stone and could fail if any significant pressure is placed on it, such as someone sitting or stepping on it. It is adjacent to the former driveway.

I’ve had some health problems while staying in my apartment here in fountain park apartments due to black mold and a mice infestation. The black mold was found in my kitchen next to the water heater where it had flooded that year and soaked into the wood and rotted. They sprayed it with something to make it go away but I believe it’s still inside of the walls and other parts of the apartment. I’ve been having breathing problems the entire time I’ve stayed here and have documented it all. The apartment manager had someone do an air test inside and outside of the apartment. I don’t feel safe because of my existing health issues and I barely stay in my apartment. My apartment has flooded many times and according to my neighbor this has happened for years because of poor plumbing.

House insufficiently sealed - windows broken, could easily be trespassed and used for illicit activities. I was told it would be sealed months ago - it is not sealed. What is the hold up? This house should be razed and the cost added to the tax bill.

House is not inhabited, but has been in the same dilapidated and unsafe state since 2017 when the current owner purchased it. It appears to be used as a storage unit and not a residential property. There are supplies/materials piled up in the front yard, driveway, and garage (there is no garage door). It is very much an eyesore.
