OK.... my ongoing dilema, we live in Indianapolis Indiana- in the city so there are alot of houses around.Current ly the houses on both sides of us are vacant 1has been for 4 months the other for 2 years and then there's another one directly across the street from us thats actually abandoned. Heres dilema these houses are constantly in a state of disaster.. the one to the left of me people randomly dump their garbage in the back yard - we found a case of used syringes and bloody gauze and nasty rotting food and it's bad like you can smell it when you come out of the back door. I called Mayors Action Center they told me to deal with it - I said "no thanks I don't wanna die of aids " and i called board of health- they said the same thing - i personally wrote the Mayor of this fine city - no response so i paid $80 to have someone come and remove the stuff so I would not have to deal with it, which I shouldn't have to I am a homeowner and pay my taxes and keep my house up and my yard and property look good and I am proud of it - I own my home scott free no more mortgage nothing at 24 !!! I have accomplished alot and feel like I have no one to turn to when i have a problem like this . But I am really worried about the safety of my kids and my doggies with all this going on...oh and 2 day ago we went away for a day came back and someone had dumped 3 13 gal. trash cans full of feces o some sort in the yard next to us. I apologize for being so long I just dunno what to do anymore... any suggestions?
