Retaining wall along alley is collapsing. House is close enough to wall that structural damage could occur. Property owner is the same as 427 N. Washington, which has also recently had a retaining wall collapse, but the owners just piled the cinder block back up and left it that way. That building is not so close to the wall as to create a hazardous situation - it is just an eyesore.
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.
Tenants leave trash all over sidewalk. Bags are untagged- the place is a mess.
Does the City ever follow up with these reports? This property has had garbage cans on the sidewalk for at least a month, blocking pedestrian traffic.
This property, at 622 N. Washington St., often has piles of garbage on its porch and in the front lawn.
Couch left in front of 817 N. Washington St., plus piles of garbage already ripped open by raccoons alongside house. These items have been here for a couple of weeks and it appears that the tenants have moved out for the summer. I have photos of both but it appears it will only let me upload one, so I chose garbage. Couch is clearly visible to the street.
Significant amount of trash in the front yard, sidewalk, and street in front of 111 E 9th
Trash piled up AGAIN alongside alley, bags ripped open by animals, trash blowing onto neighboring properties.
