Duplicate complaint, occupant has licensed or removed the vehicles.

These vehicles have not had anything done to them to remedy the situation. They got rid of one car parked next to garage but now they've shoved the short bus back there. They also put a pile of snow with a sandbag on top behind the Firebird that hasn't moved in over 3yrs to obstruct the view of the expired plates.

You should have been around on Monday. When it warmed up you could smell all of the dog waste from their 6 dogs thawing in the front yard.

Don't raise my taxes if you're not going to earn them. Please enforce the neighborhood rules.

Call me at 420-2216 and I will explain the rules that I have to follow. Jim Sberal

This is what I have to avoid trying to get out of my driveway when it's slippery.

I just received notification that my issue has been open for 6 days and that i should close it if it's been fixed. This will never be fixed! As long as the city lets him get away with it, he will continue dragging junk home and hoarding it in his yard for me to have to look at. I got stuck in the alley between our houses becsuse of the stupid short bus he's got.

SO disappointed with how this eye sore is NOT being handled.

Parked in the street for over 10 hrs. Iowa law states all commercial vehicles must be moved after 4 hrs. This bus is considered commercial as long as it's still yellow.

Tax Paying Citizen, call the police at 641-421-3636, have an officer dispatched, and they will take care of the bus since it is parked in the street.

There are quite a few people in the neighborhood that report the junk and crappy vehicles everywhere on this guy's property but the only trouble is, he's got a scanner and can hear when an officer is being dispatched to his house. They've got 6 dogs in the house and they all start barking, all the yard lights come on, and the 3 people that live there spring into action trying to jump start cars and motorcycles and the bus to get them all moved before the police show up. If I didn't live next door to the dump, I'd think it was funny.

I just received notification that this issue has been open for 121 days and that I'm to close it if it has been taken care of. Well, I'm not going to close it because it hasn't been taken care of yet. There is still the Dodge pickup that sits parallel to the alley. The owners took the garbage, boat motor and lawn mower that were sitting in the weeds on the side of their garage next to the alley and put that junk in the bed of this pickup that hasn't moved in over 2 years. City officials came to look at the property and were told that this pickup was sold and they were waiting for the buyer to get their tax refund in order to pay for and take pickup away. That was in February and the pickup is still sitting there.

They have old weeds and scrap metal piled up next to their house and 5 gallon buckets filled with dirt. Bags of cans sit outside their back door and every time the wind blows, the cans end up in my yard. If nothing changes, nothing changes! There needs to be consistent sweeps of neighborhoods for ordinance violations. Tax paying citizens shouldn't have to wait until it gets so bad that they have to report it. Why should we take care of our property if they don't have to? Rules are rules and EVERYONE should be held accountable. Tagging their property and threatening action is not an effective way to get people to follow the rules. Hit them in the bank account and they will eventually learn. This guy has a scanner and knows when the police are being dispatched to his house for parking the short bus for too long on the street so he moves it. He knows when animal control has been dispatched so he takes his pack of dogs (I'm willing to bet that they aren't current on shots or licenses) into the house. Code enforcement apparently only pertains to the "nicer" neighborhoods in town.
