Progress is being made but there is much more to do.

I continue to work with city staff, Glenwood residents and property owners to get Glenwood cleaned up. That is the first thing that must be done and progress is being made. I wanted to create a post that shows what kind of progress is being made. I also wanted to give a quick preview of where I am going next.

I do not have any before pictures for 1408 Portland Street. However, I did work with the city to get this property cleaned out and secured.


Major problems on Willomore Street will be targeted next. There are several houses that need immediate attention in a one block area. I will team up with inspectors next week and we will create a plan that will address problems in this area.

Cleaning up 920 Hertford.

Called city today and met with an inspector at this house. While I was in the house filming the inspector was outside condemning. I am not just reporting what is going on. I am making sure it gets cleaned up.

Silver Ave mess gone!

Silver Ave mess to be cleaned up tomorrow.

If the owner does not clean the mess up the city will remove the trash for $75 a load. The owner will make a decision today about what they are going to do.

Big Mess on Silver Ave.

I am working to get this cleaned up. Why do people think this is okay?

Blight removed on Grove and Portland

The parking lot that I wrote about in this post is now clean. There is lots more to do but every victory is important!
