After several attempts to get my neighbor to deal with their overgrown back yard, I was left with no option but to call the city and report a nuisance.

Think there might be a ****-storm coming my way.

That looks like a front yard.

that looks like an excellent habitat for the endangered flying reddish grey squirlmunk.

Go over there and settle it man to man you pansy. Tell him you are going to fight him if he doesn't do something about it and then whip his ass if he doesn't.

It's a woman.

I take the Phil Robertson philosophy on grass and weeds...the frost will get it.

You called the city about someone's back yard? As in, the yard you can't see unless you go out of your way to look into it?

Overgrown lots tend to attract other nuisances like animals that don't generally obey property boundaries.

This. I was a couple of days away from calling on my neighbor earlier this year until she posted something on our neighborhood FB page about their backyard being out of control and paid one of the neighborhood kids to come take care of it.

Actually wish I would have had neighbors like this when we lived in town.

I see trees, blackberry vines, and shrubs.
Are you under the impression a backyard has to be a lawn?
And rule 1 the neighbor, this could be an important consideration.

My (and my other neighbors') concern is mostly the type of trees/weeds growing there. The major problem is the ailanthus trees, which are an invasive/non-native, and almost impossible to get rid of once they get established. They will totally take over a yard.

The other issue is that my neighbors on the other side have been taking care of their FRONT yard FOR FREE for the past two years. It's a rental property, and the owner and tenants can't agree on who should be maintaining the yard.

I feel bad reporting them because I've banged two of their tenants over the past few years, so it's been a reliable source of women for me. But it won't effect the tenants, so I don't really care.

City inspector is coming next week to look at it.

The trees you see are over 9' tall. The blue railing is a deck that's 6' off the ground.

Leave her alone. She is just recreating the movie Avatar with Cowboys and Indians figurines. Can't a woman have a hobby.

Looks like a lot of my neighbor's "xeriscape".

"But but but it hardly needs any watering."

it's an oxygen replenishment and air cleaning project right in the heart of the city.
