Inspectors: garage door closed but complaints persist at 1602 Greenwood Road; health department referral made
Summary
Inspectors told the Town of Sellersburg Unsafe Building Authority that trash at 1602 Greenwood Road is now largely behind a closed garage door but that burning complaints prompted an online complaint and a referral to the health department.
Town of Sellersburg inspectors updated the Unsafe Building Authority on Nov. 13 about ongoing complaints at 1602 Greenwood Road, saying visible trash is now mostly behind a closed garage door but other concerns remain.
Speaker 3 told the board that the garage door had been shut, which hid much of the visible debris, and that staff had received a complaint about burning trash and debris. Speaker 3 said staff spoke with the property owner, handed her a flyer explaining that burning was not allowed, and filed an online complaint for follow-up: “They they did get the garage door shut, so a lot of the visible trash is behind that... Got a complaint on burning of trash and debris there. I have taken action on that.”
Speaker 3 also reported driving by before the meeting and seeing no change since the last check. The inspector noted a disabled vehicle with a flat tire in the driveway; the owner said she would address the vehicle. Speaker 1 relayed a police department service call concerning the dwelling’s living conditions and said staff advised the complainant to report any public-health concerns to the health department because officers did not indicate an unsafe structural condition.
Board members asked whether further action was needed and agreed to leave the item open for monitoring and to return it at the next meeting if problems persist. No code-enforcement citation or structural determination was recorded at the Nov. 13 session.
