My comment is whomever owns a property should have to maintain it, Wayne county cries brought every other quarter month, holding homeowners, landloards and renters responsible for their homes and failing to do so pay dearly just may keep Wayne county beautiful or more $$$, in Wayne county.
What is the point in having code/charter in the city of Detroit, when the city is not holding people accountable. No one should have to live near/next to anyone not taking care of their property.
This has happened to me before. I don't know if they've skipped over it by accident, or they haven't done anything yet. If you don't see any updates within the next few days - I would close the issue and re-open it. (as if you were reporting it all over again). Not sure why this is happening, but I'll look into it!
I've been doing a lot of investigating lately into these reports and how they are transferred or solved. I am also looking into why some departments are not on here....us being told we have to call them and given numbers that aren't being answered. If we are going to address issues, then all departments that are involved in fixing them should be on here. Unfortunately, not so. I'm also curious as to why we have limited issue selections......stay tuned.
I may also be posting some information on my Facebook Page.....Beth Hopes To Help: Fighting the Blight in Brightmoor - so keep checking that for updates, peeves or information.....
Beth I will not close any issue and reopen it, this is beginning to sound to much like a job, I am retired the City of Detroit need to do the job they are being paid to do.
You cannot be everywhere I get that but cars illegally parked, blight, property's not being maintained, some of these issues are all by design.
If we have police in our neighborhoods why is it these matters are not taken care of?
I have given this much thought, I am a young senior there are better more enjoyable thing I will be doing from this day forward, trying to get the City of Detroit to do the right thing or anyone else for that matter is not something I am going to continue to do.
I own my home keep up the inside as well as the outside, property taxes ,water bill and DTE are paid that being said, it's a done deal for me, I am going to wahoo in my senior years, not deal with the City of Detroit.
I totally agree with what you are saying, and I understand your frustration. I'm frustrated every day. I will not give up however, because of people like yourself. I have been very busy researching the exact contact people I need to deal with regarding these neighborhoods, and I hope you know and trust that I am going to reach for the stars on this.
This must be stopped and taken care of and I will do anything in my power to make it happen. I have worked in this area on and off for over 30 years - I've seen things go from bad - to worse - to totally unacceptable. I hardly see police in the Brightmoor area, which to me is wrong. Proactive policing is a must. I'm not sure why they aren't visible, whether it's just not enough officers to patrol or they aren't patrolling.
I am looking into that too. I see things every day that continue to happen right under my nose and yet they go on, uninterrupted without police anywhere in sight. This must stop also. Please know I want to help you and others in your own situation. I, myself, will re-open your issue so that it will be addressed again - and I will head out this week to see it and take pictures.
I also ask that you visit my Facebook page - Beth Hopes to Help: Fighting the Blight in Brightmoor, as I post many pictures and videos of what I see and will soon be adding contact numbers for everyone wanting to report issues that are not addressed here.
I'm going to be setting up a special email for people like you to contact me at. I will be back later to post it here for you. I will do the work for you, I promise. You sit back and just let me know what you need. I'm here for you even though it seems the city is not. I am on your side and willing to help. I hate to ask you to be patient, but I'm new at this endeavor. When my wheels start going strong..........look out Brightmoor. I'm not a person that gives up - so know that I'm going to be here until all is said, done and taken care of. Check back later for my email. I think you're awesome.
Please click the "like" or "Subscribe" button so you continue to get updates from me. You are always welcome to leave me messages about your plights, and I will look into them. You are not in this alone. I am on a mission, and I will not stop until I am heard. I, too, pay taxes in Detroit as I work here.
I did not give up moved on, today someone cut the property in question, you should see the aftermath, unbelievable if you are in the area please take a look,
Thank you so much for your do deligence, may the universe continue to kep you and your love ones safe.
