1645 Kedron, also tore out all the city sidewalks, no signs posted warning children or people walking, dangerous. Please send someone out to this area, no regards to gas or sewer lines as well.

Actually if you all could be adults for once in your life and bother to walk a couple houses down and ask what’s going on like a civil person ( I know that may be a little hard to act grown up ) I could have told you exactly what’s going on. I’m not putting in a parking lot. The sidewalk has been broken for over 5 years. I’m actually leveling out both yards ( hints fill dirt and a bobcat ) laying down top soil ( on order for next week ) then planting grass and doing landscaping. All which you DO NOT NEED PERMITS FOR, crazy right? You don’t need permission to plant grass or do landscaping. Who would have guessed. As for the sidewalk that’s been broken for longer then I’ve lived there the entire sidewalk ( 15 sections ) is being replaced this month once the weather breaks. Who would have known just asking someone what’s going on would have been so difficult. Grow up people

There are to many Mrs. Kravitz' on this site. 1 woman drives around taking pictures everyday.

I’m sure driving your trucks up over the curbs and sidewalks have nothing to do with them being broken up. These are the people with junk cars garbage all over their yard ,they painted over their windows of their house . they wouldn’t no landscaping if it bit him. How about being an adult and telling the truth you have no intention of repairing the sidewalks or doing any landscaping.

All the mud from this yard has blocked the sewer, the street is now flooding with all the rain. Wondering when all these so called improvements are going to take place? This property is a disgrace. People have to walk in the street to avoid this area.

No "civil adult" in their right mind would repeatedly drive/park in their yard in a city neighborhood to the point where it became all mud and ruts, not mow what little grass you have, and constantly have trash accumulating on the property even if it's poorly hidden behind your fence.

Be a "grown up" and fix the issues you caused on your property. It not only makes you look bad, it makes the rest of the neighborhood look bad as well. I live a few streets over and many neighbors have been talking about this for some time.

I certainly hope the sidewalks are replaced in a timely fashion and to code. I also hope that the "leveling" and "landscaping" will put a stop to the nonsense that has taken place on this property. It would be a shame if you put all the effort into fixing the yard and then started driving over it with your truck and trailer and tore it up again.

What on earth do you think I’ve been doing? I’ve been working on leveling and fixing everything up but clearly you all are to stuck up to realize anything. There are no codes about landscaping or yards complete of dirt with no grass there forth the city can’t do much as long as it’s clean and doesn’t have trash which it does not. The sidewalks which have been broken for longer then I’ve lived here will be fixed in the next month or so. Money doesn’t grow on trees, stuff will be done little by little.

Although there are no specific city codes regarding landscaping, there are numerous codes pertaining to sidewalks, sidewalk permits, parking in your front yard, etc, etc. Let's be honest though, we both know the city won't do anything about it so we can move on from that subject.

Rather than trading veiled insults back and forth with you I'll offer a few bits of sincere advice for your consideration...

I'd get the sidewalks done first so you don't tear up your nicely leveled and fixed up landscaping with the concrete work and such. Also, once it gets hot you'll have to water your grass seed more and the extra water will cost more money.

Correct. Sidewalk comes after I have the rest of dirt and landscaping stone delivered so the trucks don’t break the new sidewalk from weight ( hints why it’s not done yet, I need more topsoil) if anyone’s noticed since I’ve started everything the truck hasn’t been parked in the yard once. I’m aware grass needs watered when it gets hot / dry which is also why I used a special blend for drought resistant and hot areas. If people could stop complaining to the city about me trying to clean and fix the property up I could get stuff done faster. People have a concern or issue stop by and ask what’s going on. I’ll gladly tell anyone what I’m doing and the plans I have. Just like next year I plan on having siding put up and windows all replaced

Just wondering when the landscaping and sidewalks will be finished, its going on 10 weeks now. nothing much has changed since may 8. Now we have fourth of July garbage all over the yard.

I still dont see why you cant just walk down and talk in person, Would be much faster. Landscaping is an ongoing project. For everything I have planned it will not be 100% finished until spring time. Sidewalks; since the city was so wonderfully kind to replace yours and my neighbors but not touch mine i pushed it back as I assumed they would have done it. Over the next week I will continue busting out the old sidewalk and when finished concrete will be ordered and taken care of, Can only do so much when it was 100* outside. One thing you need to keep in mind, I work 6 days a week. normally from 10-16 hours each day. I get 1 day off a week do get everything I need to done, as well as Im not made of money, If you would like to throw 2-3 grand my way i will gladly take some vacation days and have everything done within a week. We both know thats not going to happen though. Im doing what I can when I can with what I can afford that week. Renovating a house and yard is not an instant thing, It does take time. As you can hopefully see though stuff is starting to take shape and effect. As for the 4th garbage, its one sheet of plywood in the yard with some boxes on it, that'll be moved today.

I don't believe the city will be replacing your side walk that's on you. You tore the out. Ours were destroyed by the trees that were taken out. Not to mention I've been asking for years. As far as landscaping an money I'm well aware if you haven't noticed my property. I trying to improve the valve of the neighborhood. Maybe you should of put that thousand on landscaping instead of fireworks.

I will be doing my sidewalk like I’ve said, I assumed they were doing mine as well. That’s on me for assuming. I can do whatever I feel like with my money. If I want to enjoy and celebrate America by getting some fireworks and cooking out I’m going to. Shoot if I feel like leaving the yard just as it is and start building a 15’ mud bog truck I just may do that. As you should know landscaping is ongoing. I’m not spending every dollar I make on the yard. I may go weeks without doing anything honestly. I got a list of things to do inside and outside. Keep in mind this is my house. My yard, and my life. You don’t pay my mortgage, you don’t pay my taxes, and you can’t control what I do and don’t do. Sure you live on the same street but in reality that gives you no say or control over anything. And I’ll let ya in on a secret about me.... I’m very easy going but the more you complain the longer I’m gonna take to finish stuff. Have a good day :)

Actually yes I have thought about that and I will be once my house is paid off in oh just 20 years or so. Again I re visit landscaping is not cheap. I make under 18$ an hour. If you would like to pay the thousands of dollars it’s going to cost for me to do everything how I want then by all means drop a check or cash off and it’ll be done. Butttttt we know that’s not how it works now is it? I have many other bills and expenses every month so when I have extra money that’s when I get stuff for the yard. Grass is almost fully grown on the one side and starting to grow on the other. You wanna keep complaining I’m going to be done being civil. I will drop the property value of the entire neighborhood if you wanna keep putting your nose where it does NOT belong. You don’t pay my bills, you don’t pay my taxes. I can do whatever I please on MY property. As you notice the city could care less as long as I go by codes. Which I’ve studied inside and out and know what can and can’t be done. Every time you complain I add another week onto the work. Plain and simple. Obviously you were never taught manors not patiences growing up. Don’t have anything helpful or nice to say? Zip your lips and move on. I could easily in one day turn both yards into a mud bog pit as it would not go against code to have a muddy yard. As long as trash and debris are not present there’s no rules on having no grass in a yard. Have YOU ever considered moving to a closed community with rules? You seem to complain on everyone’s houses and yards but fail to forget there’s no rules in this neighborhood. You fail to understand I’m still young, you are 51 I believe? Maybe you should start acting your age a little bit....just a suggestion. It’ll be a long 20 years if you keep butting into other people’s business. Just some friendly advise.

You see what you said ( minus all your misspelling ) you said “ we “ meaning two incomes and you both have been working for I’d say roughly what 30 years? Give or take? You have a very small yard where as I have 3 lots. I’ve been working for 2-3 years. You see the difference? How much of your stuff is paid off and how much extra income do you have by having 2 incomes and most stuff paid off ( I’m assuming ) much easier. If I had 2 incomes shoot everything would be done way faster. And I’m again assuming you both make well over 16.50 an hour correct? You can’t compare my situation to yours. Let’s play math for a minute. Let’s say you both make 20$ an hour, each working 40 hours a week. That’s 6400$ a month you both bring in ( before taxes ) now me making 16.50 at 40 hours a week that’s 2600 a month. Now take in fact house payment, truck payment, quad payment, and other bills. I’m sure you can figure that eats most the income source right there. I’ve been working 6-7 days a week lately in order to help pay for improvements which have been happening. Grass gets cut normally once a week minus the past week since I was on doubles 7 days I didn’t have time. But guess what... I got today off and you know what I did? I cut the grass because I had time. Imagine that. Call the city all you want. I’m sure you’ve figured out they A don’t give two cares, they’ve got real things to worry about. And B there isn’t a single thing they can do. No trash or debris in the yard, yard gets cut when needed. No issues for them to worry about, plus I’m pretty certain they’ve blacklisted your information from all the false complaints you keep giving. Keep complaining and I may just paint my house red white and blue with some starts on each side, again I know the code book inside and out. Not a single code about house paint / colors.... mind your business keep to yourself. I don’t bother no one. I’m not out selling drugs, I’m not having loud party’s. There’s a whole lot of stuff I could be doing but I’m not. Property value if you pay attention has actually gone up in the past year since I’ve owned the house not dropped. You have no authority over anyone or anything minus your own property.

You see what you said? You said “ WE “ meaning two incomes where as I have 1. Say you both make 20 an hour at 40 hours a week that’s 6400ish a month before taxes, where as my 16.50 at 40 hours is a little over 2600 a month. Then add on all my bills most my income is gone. It’s easy when you got triple what I make and a smaller yard. I do what I can with what I can. The city you can keep calling. They don’t care and most likely have you black listed. There’s no codes being broken here, I’ve been working 6-7 days a week to help pay for stuff normally the grass is always cut but last week I worked doubles 7 days so I didn’t get to it, but today I was off and guess what... it got cut. Imagine that. If you wanna keep playing this game just know I play to win. I could always paint my house red white and blue with starts all over it. Mind your business and keep to yourself. I’m not harming anyone and just some information since I’ve bought the house the property value actually went up by 1600$ no values in this neighborhood have dropped a single dollar. I know the code book inside and out, and know exactly what can and can not be done.

For your information I was a single mother supporting my family over 20 years working full-time 60 hours a week and taking care of my property and it never looked like your house. Having two incomes has nothing to do with cutting your grass and picking up the trash. If you can’t afford to take care of the place why would you buy it? The difference between you and me is I work way too hard to not take care of my things . Have some pride. Paint your house whatever ugly color you want don’t to forget to paint over the windows again.

Good for you. Want a medal? You probably didn’t own a house, you probably rented or had an apartment. And the cost of living what 20-30 years ago was more then half of what it was now. I do cut my grass and there’s not trash in the yard so not sure where you are getting that from. I can afford the house just fine. Can I afford to drop 3-5 grand on improvements all at once? Nope. Most people can’t. We can leave all the issues you got right here and now and put everything in the past and move forward like adults. Or we can go down this road of no return and play this game. Choice is yours. I prefer growing up a little bit and keeping to yourself. I’m doing what I can when I can.

Your the one looking for the pity party. I've owned that house 30 years and I'm 50 do the math. You know nothing about me or my life. Just be a responsible property owner. Maybe spend time on your yard instead of your poor, I make 16 bucks a hour rants. The neighborhood doesn't care!

Literally nothing you said makes any sense. No, the neighborhood doesn’t care, that you are correct on. It’s only you that can’t get over yourself thinking you can tell people how to live their life and what to do. Pity party? Not really seeing how. I’m perfectly happy with my life and how everything is going. This is most likely my last comment to you as it’s just getting to childish. As you see the city doesn’t care about your opinion on this neighborhood, no one does. They’re probably sitting back laughing at how pathetic a 50* year old is acting. You have a good day, when I feel like finishing my stuff you’ll see it.
