Wild Animal Issue

Opened: Nov 11, 2026, 12:59 PM1h ago
Description: Hello, I am contacting you regarding a neighboring residential property in Hyde Park that has been in a significant state of disrepair for an extended period. The backyard is severely overgrown and appears to be largely neglected. There is also a small shed or outbuilding that is visibly deteriorating and appears to be at risk of collapsing. The overgrown vegetation and deteriorating structure are directly adjacent to our shared chain link fence. There has also been wildlife activity, including an opossum sheltering in the vegetation immediately along the fence and feral cats. I am concerned about potential property maintenance, structural safety, and sanitation issues, as well as the possibility of wildlife taking shelter in the deteriorating structure. I would appreciate it if someone could assess the property and determine whether there are any applicable code violations or conditions requiring attention. I would prefer to remain anonymous, if possible. Thank you for your assistance.
