Childs Park Neighborhood Association

homeless have moved into this bank owner house. broken out windows, trash in the back yard.....living like wild things in this house. We have contacted the realtor that has the listing....he is NO help, Had to get the City involved. They " Claim" someone rented them the house.....its the oldest scam around, these same people have done this at least twice before in the same area.

On this street, there are two houses that have a high amount of traffic. All day, there are cars parked on the street outside these houses. They block the road and throw trash everywhere. How can we get a no parking on the street sign. There are so many cars sometimes, people can not drive up and down the road. They also have underaged girls at the house, and underaged drinking. Some of the underaged girls are pregnant by the people at this house. The people at the house look like adults. When the police come by to check things out, the main people usually leave later, racing up and down the street and yelling at each other. Often people can not leave their driveways because the cars opposite of their driveway are in the way. I have seen school buses avoiding the surplus of traffic, and car accidents almost happen. This is a 30mph road. Cars screech to a stop because these cars are in the way. This road needs a 'No Parking on this side' sign. Often the children play around their parents cars, running in and out between the cars and into the street. One of these children are going to get hit.

The homeless family that moved in is now dumping trash in the blue tub. The neighbors are having to clean up the trash every day.....the bank and realtor that own the home are doing nothing. They pulled the ( Old ....some body rented me the house scam )

making a big dump pile in the front North / east area of the prop. mainly limbs and yard waste, almost blocking the turn into the alley. They have been asked many time not to do this.

The entire length of the sidewalk behind Coquina Key plaza is not maintained and in some cases isn't passable in a wheel chair. The grass on the sides of the sidewalk are grown in that it is hardly passable walking side by side and causes tripping and falling. I tripped and fell in this area and fractured a rib and scraped my knees. Please address this as it is where I walk my dog every day.

I just drove by a biker who was covered in blood, who was hit at this intersection. There is a police report, because I saw three police, who the biker was talking to. Just like the 40th Street intersection, this area needs help. Bikers are constantly almost getting hit. Perhaps this road needs a intersection hump as well.

Alley needs resurfacing lots of dipping all through the alleyway with storm drain exposed

Large sinkhole located in the street (almost entire width of street) at the Child's Park Library entrance. This is also where the bike path crosses the street. I frequent the library, and have seen that the sinkhole has grown in diameter. There are traffic cones surrounding it, but nothing has been done to fix the issue. It is a danger to cars, bicyclists, and the public in general, as there is not much room left to maneuver around it.

This car has been there for several months. It needs to be removed.

I previously placed a request for all of this trash/debris/yard waste which just a few days was marked resolved. Well, the trash/debris/yard waste is all still there and the previpus garbage pickup dropped the large alley trash bin back into part of the alley road. The waste is an eyesore and safety issue and I tried moving the trash can back out of the road to no avail. Please headdress this issue and resolve it honestly and completely this time.

1759 Scranton St. South. The resident does not clean yard outside the back yard's 6' fence (which is on 46th St). It is overgrown with tall weeds, that are on both sides of the sidewalk, and across the sidewalk (creating an obstacle for pedestrians).

There are also many surrounding houses along 46th St which do not care for their yards, and have weeds/grass as tall as 4+ feet high. This is not safe for surrounding houses, due to rodents, trash, infestations, etc that can easily become housed there.

Rats, Snakes, Overgrowth... Location: Property abutting the trail on the South Side between 40th Street South and 39th Street South. Our Group (Veterans Village USA) was considering maintaining this portion of the Pinellas Trail from 37th to 40th Street. We went out to take a closer look and the overgrowth and rotting plants and trees gave off an odor. As we took a closer look, several (4) rats ran near our feet and 2 snakes took off in the opposite direction. (I guess they were looking for the rats). This needs to be cleaned up. I will provide several Photos of the overgrowth of vegetation which houses these critters.
