Re: [longview-park-community-watch] Can we mow a lawn?

by matt ramey

Ok I just walked by the house and there was a yellow sheet on the door. The inspector came by today! (thank you whoever made that happen!) The owners live in Virginia, so I doubt they'll respond...hopefully it'll get mowed in a couple of weeks by the city

James, the house is on the corner of Donnelly and Glasscock. You can't miss it. The grass is almost 3 feet high...I don't know if it is bank owned or privately owned, but whoever owns it hasn't kept up with it in a WHILE.

I agree, filing a seeclickfix complaint is your best bet to see quick action by the City. The property owner would face some repercussions for not maintaining the property.

It is typically best to inform the City about these issues, and not address them yourself. In this case, mowing the lawn may eliminate any true nuisance case that the City might be able to bring that would compel the absentee owner to take responsibility. Also, we have learned through experience that seeclickfix.com<http://seeclickfix.com> (http://seeclickfix.com/east-raleigh) is an excellent way to get these issues addressed. These reports are reviewed directly by the City Manager's office and provide a workflow framework the maximizes accountability. In some cases, the reports even attract the attention of the media (e.g., Eloe HVAC noise issue last fall). --Emrys On Thu, May 3, 2012 at 10:49 AM, Christa Groseclose <christa.groseclose(a)gmail.com<mailto:christa.groseclose@gmail.com>> wrote: > hey matt, excuse the bad punctuation, I'm feeding my baby right now but > wanted to share this with you and everyone else in the neighborhood. we had > a similar problem with a house on our street, on king charles, and I called > city inspections and filed a public nuisance complaint. they came and > inspected very quickly, and left a form on the door. it gave them I think 10 > days to fix the problem. if the grass is over 8 inches tall is considered a > public nuisance. the owner did not mow the grass. so the city sent out > someone to mow the lawn.

Can we mow a lawn?

by matt ramey

Hi everyone...Matt, is there a way we can organize a yard clean up? There is a house on the corner of Donnelly & Glasscock (just down from us) that is obviously unoccupied & the grass in the lawn is about 3 feet high. It looks awful & i'm sure attracts bad attention. I'm not sure the legality, but I don't think anyone would mind if we organized a clean up. People could bring lawn mowers, weed eaters, we could clean up sticks, weeds, pinecones, etc. Jillian & I couldn't do a Saturday (we work) but a Sunday would be great....we don't own a lawnmower or weedeater but we would definitely use one if neighbors brought some & we can do other maintenance. I just think it would be good for the neighborhood & also show the folks in Longview that we won't let properties go into disrepair. How can we work this out?

ticks

by Emily Orr

Sincere apologies for cross posting. Our doggie just came in from evening tinkles and we found an interesting assortment of bugs on her, including two ticks. Vet and various news stories suggest that this will be a very bad tick season. Be on the lookout!!! Dr. Emily. G. Orr Area Coordinator, North Carolina Governor's School www.ncgovschool.org
