South Lincoln St, South of Dodds, has overgrown bushes that are blocking the right of way, making it necessary to walk out around them.
South Lincoln St, South of Dodds, has overgrown bushes that are blocking the right of way, making it necessary to walk out around them.
On the South East corner of Grant & Grimes Ln, the neighbor's bushes are blocking the view of traffic. They cannot see to get out of their driveway.
The grass is unmowed at this apartment building, next door to complaintant.
THE BUSHES AT THE BACK OF THE THE PROPERTY ARE OVERGROWN NEAR THE ROADWAY. THIS MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THE HOUSE BEHIND THE ABOVE ADDRESS TO PULL OUT ONTO THE STREET. MANY TIMES THEY HAVE TO GET OUT OF THEIR VEHICLES TO DIRECT TRAFFIC. (NOTE: THIS WAS CALLED IN TO "HAND" AND REFERRED TO ENG.)
Raw sewage coming up in the back yard.
There are weeds and bushes now growing over the sidewalk. Complaintant cannot get his wheel chair down the street now. Property also has very tall grass.
MR. CARRICO HAS A HOUSE AT 1231 S FESS, THE CORNER OF FESS & BRENDA AVENUE. FESS AVENUE HAD WORK DONE AND THE STREET NOW SLOPES IN SUCH A WAY THAT ALL THE WATER DRAINS INTO THE BASEMENT AT 1231. THE STORM DRAIN IS ON THE HIGH SIDE OF THE STREET. MR. CARRICO HAS INSTALLED A RETAINING WALL AND WAS GOING TO BACK DIRT UP TO THE WALL, BUT THE CONTRACTOR STATED THAT THIS WOULD NOT PREVENT THE WATER FROM GOING INTO THE BASEMENT.
Residents always sit trash out several days before Sanitation picks up the trash; meanwhile animals tear the bags open.
##P####
The back yard has not been mowed all year.
