Sadly, this sends the wrong message to both the community (we have to look at the jungle lawns day in and day out) and the absentee landlords/low-life renters.

This is exactly why our councilperson needs to step up to the plate and address what is going on and what is being ignored in her district, IMO.
I'm sure if this was done, a clear pattern would form.. and nuisance citizens would be exposed, and easier to deal with.
But this would require some interest and a bit of an agressive approach on behalf of our elected leaders- state and city.
