An inspector investigated and initiated a public nuisance case on 4/22/2013 with deadline of 5/3/2013. The inspector will follow-up to make sure this issue is resolved.

I agree with the previous comment. If there had been a marked crossing at this intersection there likely wouldn't have been a pedestrian death. Let's get this intersection properly marked before this sad reminder is removed.

The City mows the median and will continue to mow around this. This roadway is maintained by NCDOT and it would be up to them if this was removed.

The Solid Waste Services Department has responded. The recycling cart in front of 2239 Rumson Rd was investigated and found with garbage inside. The resident was cited with a code violation and a letter will be sent to this address ASAP.

Update: The property was inspected 4/1/13 and found no city code violations are present at this time. This had been scheduled for a bulky load pick up on 3/22/13, but may have been missed. I will confirm with Solid Waste Services the status of the bulky load pickup.

I think it is gone, now, as of a few days ago. Thanks.

Closing issue in SeeClickFix.

Housing & Environmental Inspections has responded. Teh inspector investigated and initiated a public nuisance case on 4/18/2013 with deadline of 4/29/2013.

Thank you,

The Housing & environmental Inspections Division has responded with the inspector confirmed the violations cleared and
case was closed on 3/26/13. Actual address 1008 N Raleigh Blvd.

Thank you,

Ugh, yesterday there were four vehicles parked in the front yard with one near the front door! This place is a persistent blight & the landlords apparently have no problem repeatedly cleaning up their tenants' mess… My husband tried to speak to them earlier this year while they were yet again removing trash, but they refused to even acknowledge him.

I agree, the lack of up-keep has made this property an eyesore for years! At least the previous tenants were friendlier!

The Housing & Environmental Division has responded and stated when the inspection of this property was performed on 3/18/13 no violations were found at this time.

Thank you,

Well, the bins, carts and crates were finally removed from the curb today, Tuesday, March 5 (thank goodness -- and thanks to the inspector!). However, the very large, sodden pile of cardboard which has been there for a month, is still there. I think the recycling folks never picked it up because much of it exceeds the size limit, which I'm sure these tenants never bothered to read about, and don't want to deal with now because the pile has been rained on numerous times over the past 4-5 weeks. I am hopeful that the inspector will recheck this, let them know that the cardboard has to be dealt with also, and perhaps they will be responsible neighbors going forward!

Neighbor

Maybe you could go over and help them out; and try being a good neighbor. There could be an easier way to get what you want. Take Care.

The mountain of soggy cardboard has been removed. I'm a happy camper!

An inspector went out to the property on 2/27/13 and found no violations at this time.

I hope RPD is not sandbagging complaint calls.

Do not call the non-emergency number anymore. I was told by an officer in my area regarding homeless people having sex in public here that it is not treated the same as a direct call to the district police station Ironic, on SCF we were told to call directly to the district station but the responding police officer tells us that they do not respond if it is not through the 911 dispatcher. Seems a waste of time and resources to me, but just saying, call 911, not the police district station.

Clearing some old cases. We had provided info and closed this one a while back

The Housing & Envronmental Inspectins Divisiodn has reported the inspector just informed that this is being removed as I write this email. Thanks!

The city's Housing & Environmental Inspection Division has an active case on this property in reference to household items in the front yard. The deadline for compliance is 2-18-13. The inspector will follow-up to make sure it is brought into compliance. Thanks!

This was taken care of back in the Fall of last year, issue mistakenly left open.

The inspector visited the property today and found the issue to be resolved.

The tenants at this property seem to have a difficult time both keeping their garbage picked up in their yard & parking vehicles on Barksdale blocking traffic despite the no parking signs. I can recall at least one other recent occasion where a neighbor reported litter here. It's a perpetual problem rental.

Our inspector has initiated a public nuisance case with a deadline of February 9. The inspector will follow up until the issue is cleared.

You could move the cart up to the house for them and be a good neighbor. Just a thought.

The cart has been moved to the house. Thanks!

Our inspector visited here and found no violations at this address. He did issue warnings on the street at other addresses.

Our Parks divsion crews have taken care of this.

Thank you!

This was completed as of today.

This one was complete a while back...just clearing some old cases.

Aqua1117 is correct. The Solid Waste Services Department posted its holiday schedule in multiple outlets, including the newspaper and on our web site. You can see it here:

Bi-weekly reycling with the new blue carts will begin in your neighborhood in August 2013.

Our inspector visited this site and found no violations at this time.

The furniture has been removed.

Thanks for reporting. I have referred this to the City’s Housing and Environmental Inspections Division. When they have responded I will update this issue.

Our inspector has initiated a public nuisance case with a deadline of October 8. The inspector will follow up until the issue is cleared.
