Abandoned property Open

12702 Flack Street Silver Spring, MD 20906 - Greater Glenmont

The house at 12702 Flack Street has been vacant for more than one year. A notice posted in the front window states that the property is owned by Chase Home Finance LLC. Phone # 877.790.1035 (LPS Field Svcs 440.633.4100). The grass gets cut infrequently, so the property looks shabby. There is trash, piles of yard debris, and standing water in the back yard. All of these are attractions to rats. Rats have been observed by neighbors. In addition, there was break in, which was reported to police, sometime in late Jan or February. The bank was alerted to the break in -- their response was to pull the broken window closed (without repairing the glass) and changing the locks -- the broken window is on the left side of the house. This kind of neglect is unacceptable. Our hope is that the property (the house seems to be in good shape) be cleaned up and sold quickly. A vacant house is a magnet to vermin and vagarants. Our neighborhood does not need either.

  I don't want to close this issue because nothing has been done to change the situation. For the majority of the summer the lawn was mowed weekly. That stopped three weeks age, so lawn is getting knee-high again. There have beed additional break-ins.

  It seems there are a lot of rats in the neighborhood. I kill 3-4 a month with my pellet gun, poison or electric traps.

SNOW ON SHOVELED SIDEWALKS Archived

Urbana/Flack Wheaton-Glenmont, MD - Montgomery County - Mid County

MC snow removal trucks dumped tons of snow on passable sidewalks. We are now in violation of the ADA Act, Federal government policy and County code. Please correct this unbelievable act by sending out machinery to move this ice/snow/debris mixture

County Issuing Citations Archived

12814 Flack Street Wheaton-Glenmont, MD - Montgomery County - Mid County

My neighbor received a citation from the County indicating she had 24 hours to remove the snow from her sidewalk (and an additional 24 hours if the
County created the problem). The County dumped 6 feet of snow and ice on the neighbors sidewalk, and now demands that she remove it.

Additionally, the County snow removal process has damaged many curbs and sidewalks in the 12800 block of Flack Street. Then there are the scalped lawns, where the front-end loaders have scraped great hunks of turf from the easements.

Trash at closed KFC restaurant Archived

12514 Georgia Avenue Silver Spring, MD - Greater Glenmont

A couple of months ago a bus ran into the KFC restaurant in Glenmont. The restaurant suffered structural damage and was closed. Since that time the trash around the property has been growing. Now there is a sofa that was dumped near the dumpster and all the trash cans around the property are overflowing and adding to litter problems which will lead to rat issues.

  Thanks for making some headway on this problem. I went by the property at 10:30 a.m. this morning and noted the following:
  The sofa and an overstuffed chair are now behing the fence enclosing the dumpster. This looks better but won't eliminate rat problems because the furniture is still on the site.
  There is a trash can on the left side of the store front that is still overflowing with trash. Since no one is on property to empty the can this problem will persist unless the can is removed.

  There is still a trash can in front of the store that is overflowing and should be removed since no one is responsible for disposal of that trash.
  Go ahead and close the issue.

Yet another old couch in Hathaway Drive island Archived

12715 Hathaway Dr Silver Spring, MD 20906, USA - Greater Glenmont

There is an old off-white couch in the Hathaway Drive island. With the rain this weekend, I'm sure it's starting to mold.

This is the third time I've reported bulk trash on the Hathaway island in three weeks. Come on, Montgomery County -- we really need a little enforcement of the law on this matter.

  Charlie,
  
  I disagree with your assessment of the 311 Website. Searching on "trash" on the 311 site got me to a list that included an item called "Debris Pickup." Clicking on that link got me to this page, where I can fill out and submit a form if it's a County-maintained street or call a number provided if it's a State-maintained road.

  Apparently that link in my previous post depends on a cookie on your machine, so the link as typed won't get you there, sorry. But if you follow these steps, you get to submit your info directly to the County:
  
  1. Go to 311 site http://www3.montgomerycountymd.gov/311/
  2. In the search enter "trash"
  3. In the resulting list, click on "Debris Pickup"
  4. Click on Create Service Request

  When you search for "trash," there is an existing answer on the 311 site. However, it appears that most of the FORTY links that result when you search for "trash" require the web site visitor to make a phone call. It should also be noted that many of the existing results for a search for "trash" are not relevant, i.e., "Reporting a nuisance cat" and "Rats, Bedbugs, Mice,or Rodent Complaints".
  
  The SeeClickFix's web site is simplicity itself to use. You don't have to search for a result that may not be relevant. You do not have to make a phone call ever.
  
  I just don't see a reason to use a clumsy service like MC311 when a graceful, simple solution like SeeClickFix exists. I feel that the Montgomery County taxpayer would be better served if the appropriate county officials signed up for SeeClickFix alerts, rather than create or maintain a web site like MC311 which, for the most part, just points back to (or duplicates the results of) the Montgomery County website. In your example, you can find the same information on the County's web page. Why pay someone to re-duplicate the effort for creating the 311 site?
  
  Finally, I think that especially for the purpose of reporting gang graffiti, trash that may have been left by a neighbor, etc., the fact that SeeClickFix is anonymous is definitely an advantage. You do not have to leave contact information that MC311 requires to submit anything.

garish light blue mattress & boxspring in Hathway Drive Island Dump Archived

12701 Hathaway Dr Silver Spring, MD - Greater Glenmont

For the fourth time this year, another mattress & box spring has been left in the Hathway Drive Island. This time, it's a particularly ghastly light blue one. Since the county apparently isn't making an effort to enforce illegal dumping laws, and has refused or ignored repeated requests for "NO DUMPING" signs on Hathaway Drive, why doesn't the county just designate the Hathway Drive island as the Wheaton/Glemnont Transfer Station?

Broken computer and monitor in Hathaway Drive island Archived

Once again, someone has mistaken the island dividing Hathaway Drive for a garbage dump. The CRT monitor could be shattered, leaving sharp pieces of chemically-coated glass in the island where kids sometimes play.

A Customer Service Representative will capture the information needed by the department to fulfill your request and share in real time with department staff. You will be given a timeframe for the completion of the work and a service request number to follow up on progress. You can also create your own request for service online any time day or night by visiting the MC311 portal at http://www3.montgomerycountymd.gov/311

There are bags of trash and others of garbage dumped at the curb in front of 1504 Mass Ave SE on a regular basis. By morning, the chicken bones, lottery tickets, beer cans and bottles, etc are all over the roadway and gathering insects. The Liquor Store owner and I found address info inside two bags--1447 S.

  Anne, I'm afraid the appropriate people will never get this, because the map did not locate the address you gave correctly. The map placed the point for your complaint in central Montgomery County, MD. The only people notified of your complaint were those who signed up to hear complaints in these suburban areas, not Washington, DC!
  
  I suggest you try again, and make sure the map is correctly showing your area in DC before you submit it. Good luck!

  I think part of the problem is you abbreviated the street name, and it thought you wanted Snow Mass Ct in Maryland for some reason. When you try again, you may get better results if you spell out the name Massachusetts Ave. Good luck!
