Resolution summary: ALREADY CUT

Thank you for sending a crew out. The men were very efficient and friendly. However, as I explained to the crew, the issue is not grass cutting. The issue is at the back of the lot on the Danny Thomas side that connects to the alley. The vegetation is out of control creating hiding places for vermin, mistaken for and used as a trash dump by the general public, and a hiding spot for suspicious activity. I trimmed the trees intruding on my property six months ago—the tree limbs are still where I put them on the curb at Danny Thomas and the Alley as shown in the GIS parcel map. The dead branches have trash in them. The tree limbs and vines intruding on adjacent properties are causing damage to occupied homes. Lack of maintenance on this parcel is an eyesore and a health hazard.

Somewhere along the line, the address for the property in violation changed from 643 to 646 Looney. My complaint initially and currently is with 643 Looney, an empty lot. Specifically the back half on Danny Thomas. Intrusive, unmaintained vegetation (not weeds) including vines, trees, and general trash stuck in this mess are at issue. Thank you.

Again, somewhere along the line, the address changed. I just got a notice from Code Enforcement about this property sent to me personally to correct or be fined. Tried calling the number on the notice. No one picked up. I took a picture of the lot from the Shelby County website to avoid this type of miscommunication. Please note, the property is owned by MLB uptown LLC, The physical address is 643 Looney, Parcel# 001096 00009. As well, a property owned by the City of Memphis has weeds over 5ft. tall, Parcel# 001096 00014. My home is bounded by these two unkempt properties. Photo of parcel# 00196 00014 attached.

Please find more photos of the exact problems on and the violation notice sent to me. I am not sure how to fix my violation, no one answers at the phone number on the notice and since I'm not sure what exactly the violation is, I don't how to fix it. Please advise.

Looney/DT City of Memphis lot. My home is sandwiched between this and the initial complaint. PLEASE HELP!

This is ridiculous, this is a high traffic intersection where people coming in to work @ St Jude & downtown from N Shelby Co have to sit & look at this overgrowth & blight. Responsible parties need to fix this immediately, very bad looking to residents & visitors.

Lou, I agree that responsible parties need to address.
