Excessive Growth
520 W 4th ST
- Case Date:
- 6/25/2025
Shrub on corner is so overgrown it makes it difficult to stay on the sidewalk.
Shrubs on east side of front yard are overgrown with tree-of-heaven, and the other plants have grown so much that they are blocking half the sidewalk. Property owner (absentee - lives in another town) doesn't keep this properties looking nice. They are either overgrown or else he completely removes all the plants so that the properties are only grass. Always too much or too little. Such a shame...
Successive growth in the yard and all around the house
Excessive growth
Location is approximate. May be a trails or INDOT issue. Foliage obstructing the sidewalk along IN 46E heading south toward College Mall. (East of Green Acres).
This property is a disaster.Neighbors realize the city is limited as to what it can enforce but these residents are allowing invasive weeds to grow all along the street which must be a violation of some code. On the rare occasion they do mow, they allow lawn clippings to pile up in the street and leave them there to blow away or go down the storm drain. Look in the drain, please. Their weeds need to be eradicated for the sake of all surrounding neighbors. I believe they have been repeatedly warned about not mowing. When they do mow, it is ONLY the area at the curb which we all assume is your only jurisdiction; however, their backyard is so over-grown it can't help but be a breeding ground for vermin. Seriously, please help the Blue Ridge neighborhood with all you can. It gets worse every year. Pics were taken but won't load.
Weeds have overgrown and are blocking the sidewalk (again), preventing strollers and wheelchairs from using the sidewalk. Not clear is problem is responsibility of 314 E. 11th or 719 N. Grant (or both).
Reference: Case #185516. Nine days have passed, problem still exists. Can an additional fine be issued at this point? Or was there no fine issued the first time?
Median on W 3rd street, normally beautiful and well maintained, currently overgrown and crowded with weeds.
