They "trimmed" off the bush on the corner by the fence and turned the abandoned minivan around. There is more trash by the side door. Ugh! This is gross.

We performed an inspection and an enforcement order is being sent to clean the area.

Thank you Max! Much appreciated.

I received an email from SeeClickFix stating the issue has been outstanding for 31 days and if the problem has not been taken care of to comment. Nothing has changed. The property is still a mess. SeeClickFix said I need to comment to keep the report open.
31 days, a whole month, and zero progress.

Once again SeeClickFix is asking me to comment so this issue does not close. 61 days and ZERO progress. In fact I would say there is more trash outside the door on the side. And sometimes when we are lucky, the birds and animals pull that trash into the street.
Absolutely ridiculous. I originally started by calling city hall and then a week or 2 later was told by a friend about SeeClickFix. Her thought was once this eye sore was reported it would get cleaned up. I will keep this open. Open until something is done.

I know this family personally. I know the hardships they face, including contracting the virus. I realize the issue...but honestly tree removal is expensive and add a global pandemic, things aren’t easy.
I am commenting because I notice that you haven’t posted a single positive thing. Not the tree removal or anything else that has been done to the property. It was brought to my attention that you bring people outside the driveway to point and take pics. Loudly exclaiming your disapproval. People live there. You have rights, they do as well. I’d say this may be borderline harassment. Let’s have a little respect.
You don’t know this family’s struggle or how they are trying to figure out what to do or where the money will come from.
I’d say let’s be happy for all the progress....maybe be nice.

Virginia girl, the tree was taken away yesterday . I am sorry to hear that the family is having problems but it does not take much to keep up the over grown trees, weeds, grape vines, etc. In fact there are businesses that will come and pay take the broken cars away. I have NOT stood outside and said anything. The only pictures I know of are the one I have taken for this site. There is ZERO harassment here so please check yourself. I originally called town hall and all could have been taken care on the DL but Gloucester use this site for this type of complaints. Sorry, maybe you should take up your complaint on how these things are reported with the mayor.
