Description

This property is gross! The people who live there barely mow the lawn every 2 months. They are using the back yard as a auto scrap yard/ auto body shop. Spraying all kinds of chemicals and paint into the air!! The 3 car garage is falling apart. You can see the broken/boarded up windows from the street. Along with all the garbage pushed over to one side. Weeds growing out of the gutters on the garage. The pavement is a mess. The bricks are falling apart on the house. The weeds/bushes in the back are about 5 feet or more high. The pile of branches/leaves etc in the back of the garage is about 4 feet tall and 15 feet wide. No doubt that is where the large amount of raccoons that attack the trash cans live. The owner of the house doesn't live on the property so what does he care? Notified the city and nothing has happened.

also asked...
Q. Is the problem blight (trash, etc) outside, or is it a problem with the building (illegal use, housing code violation, etc)?
