There is a dead bird in the street at the corner of Grimes and Grant.
There is a dead bird in the street at the corner of Grimes and Grant.
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.
I found a dead cat in front of my house at 319 A Fairview this morning's ng. It looks like it was attacked by some other animal. There is Tufts of fur in the grass all around the body.
House was sold a couple of months ago. Huge, empty, uncared. Neighbors on street have no idea who purchased but assume it is a developer. Yard is now very overgrown; house has flapping broken siding high up that during storms we all think may fly off!
Overgrown yard with no maintenance. Overgrowth is causing several types of damage to fences surrounding properties and bug problems like ticks and mosquitoes to affect the area
Caller to HAND reporting overgrown grass at two properties across the street from him and the next door neighbor. Said that they were never mowed last year so he did the mowing but no longer going to mow for them.
Caller to HAND lives at 120 W Pinewood Dr. wants to file complaint against his neighbors living across the street for grass not mowed. Said last year it was never mowed.
There is a dead bird lying in the middle of the sidewalk. It is located at the north corner of the Morton Street/9th Street intersection. Concerned that it could be eaten by somebody's dog.
This bag just showed up one day. I can't physically move it by myself, but I think it's on the city's right of way. I'm not sure so that's why I'm filling this out. It's on Watson and Bryan. Pic attached. I tried moving it, but I think it's filled with concrete or sand? It's been there for months. I would move it myself if I could, but it looks like people passing by are now throwing trash into it.
Large shrub (bush honeysuckle?) at NE corner of lot has grown so much that it is now difficult to pass using the sidewalk on Cottage Grove. The property owner/manager (sign in yard says "Thatcher Real Estate") never shovels the sidewalk in the winter, but maybe the snow/ice complaints submitted to HAND earlier this year never made it to them. Probably good to be more proactive about this report, since the shrub is not going to just melt on its own like the snows did...
