Case Details

Applicant:
CONREW LLC
Description:
Along Dodge Blvd, their property (which is directly across the street from 2585 and 2545 N. Dodge and extends south to the boundary with the CPSA building) is littered with junk and garbage that include large 40 oz glass bottles, glass beer bottles, beer cans, and various trash items. There are many items put into the bushes that surround the property, including some large construction cones with blinking lights on top (there is no ongoing construction here). From Dodge Blvd, it is easy to see graffiti on the B building and also there is an air-conditioning unit that has been popped out for about a week (that I\\\'ve noticed) so far. You can see into the unit from the street because the hole from the AC is quite large. Also visible from Dodge Blvd. on the A building are a broken window on the second floor that is taped to hold large shards of glass together. Also on the A building are large cracks and a hole in the exterior where electrical wires stick out. In the south parking area a lot of landscaping waste is often piled up near the dumpster, but not regularly removed. Also in the south area you can see in front of unit 111 lots of trash and junk appliances. In general the exterior of this property is littered with trash.
