The speed hump in front of 4166 Three Mile Dr. was torn up, and two pieces of metal with spikes up were sitting in the street over the speed hump. I moved them to either side of the street.

It's been a repeated problem at the corner of Three Mile and Linville that people are stacking up large piles of household items next to the fire hydrant.

This was initially reported as a fire hydrant issue since the fire hydrant is almost completely blocked by debris. DWSD closed the issue saying the problem was resolved. Here's a more recent photo. As you can see, the issue has not been resolved, so now I'm reporting it again.

Trash has been stacked up right next to the fire hydrant on Three Mile at Linville, partially obstructing the hydrant. The trash was not picked up by GFL on bulk trash day Thursday, July 21.

This is more than illegal dumping. It's a landlord who keeps tearing up the property. Over a year ago she dug up the driveway but didn't replace it. At about the same time, she had bricks removed from the house, that were never replaced. A couple of weeks ago contractors tore out the front steps and dumped bags of concrete on the front lawn. This is a rental property that is seriously in violation of city codes. And it's a terrible eyesore.

Trash is now getting caught in the branches of this limb.

Tree branches left at curb, haven't been picked up for several weeks.

Limb broke off in a recent storm.

More than a month ago, workers renovating the party store across the street at 16301 E. Warren dumped insulation and other trash around the fire hydrant, limiting access to it. They said the new owner told them to put it there.

Workmen were observed clearing debris from the party store located at 16301 E. Warren, at the corner of Three Mile. They said the owner had told them to place it there. Not only is it an eyesore, it's obstructing access to the fire hydrant at that location. It has been there for weeks now, and the owner has made no effort to remove it.

This is actually a problem with a blighted, unmaintained property.

Household waste

Yard waste and household items left at curbside a few days after bulk trash pickup. Fallen branch has been hanging over the yard for months now.

Grass hasn't been cut for months. Some weeds are now almost chest high.

This problem was reported a few weeks ago, but the out of state owner of this property has not responded. The backyard is also filled with trash.

This house is owned by Gerson Sepin, an investor in Miami Beach Florida who has been neglecting this property for years. The back yard is filled with trash as well.
