Blighted Property Open

711 Melrose St Pontiac, Michigan - Pontiac

The property at 711 Melrose St. in Pontiac, MI has been vacant for over 3 years now. The city did not board up this property when they came around this neighborhood boarding up all the vacant properties in the area. The doors are wide open or missing, and most of the windows are broken out. It has become a neighborhood dumping site and poses a health risk and a potential for rodent infestation to the entire neighborhood. This house needs to be demolished and the property cleaned up. I have contacted the city and nothing has been done to date. Picture was taken today, May 7, 2013. Please, can this issue be taken care of as soon as possible?

  Sent your information and picture to the Building and Safety Staff at 10:30 today, Friday. Hopefully it'll get someone's attention. I'll get over there first chance I can get and try to stay on it. You're right, what a mess and it's just not right you have to put up with this

Parking on both sides Open

Osceola Dr. Pontiac, Michigan - Pontiac

People are parking on both sides of the street, blocking vehicles from driving down the street and others from getting out of driveways. There is also a large trailor parked on the street. Can a trailor be left there indefinitely?

Sidewalk Open

147 Cherokee Pontiac, Michigan - Pontiac

Hello, my sidewalk out front seems to have collapsed on one section. It is higher than the rest in another, but that is to be expected due to the tree roots, but one square has buckled in.

Pontiac High graffiti and trash Closed

1051 Arlene Ave. Pontiac, MI 48340, USA - Pontiac

First of all,I want to make sure I start this on a positive note. Last year, when Pontiac High reopened, that school looked so great. The principal has all the graffiti removed and new landscaping. It became a pleasure to drive by instead of an eyesore. That is why I am sorry to have to report new vandalism. We have been going to the track to workout and have been noticing a progression of vandalism and trash. There is graffiti on the back of the building and now on the side by the tennis courts. Also, on the announcer's box at the football field and on the shot put's platform. The trash cans are overflowing with trash so more trash is accruing all over the field and surrounding areas. I really hope this gets taken care of soon . It would be embarrassing to have a summer scrimmage or something there and have a team come from another community. It would just reinforce the bad image Pontiac has developed with surrounding areas.

  We picked up 1 1/2 bags of trash today. Among the trash were empty liquor bottles. One was a Bud Lite can on the ground between the Tennis courts and the parking lot. It was disturbing given you have to pass signs that say "Drug-Free "school zone on the way there.

  What is amazing to me is the apathetic response of the school board, the city council and the police. As long as they are sitting back watching people like you do all the work, the criminals will continue to do what they are doing. It is almost as if the people in power want to see this city fail. This is too amazing.

  There is still graffiti on the South West side of the building closest to Arlene and the southern parking lot . You can see it as you are driving North on Arlene.

  I have had this open too long and from what I can tell, they have been regularly getting rid of graffiti. Trash has been pretty much under control.
