Bellerose house is quite an eyesore
From Brownstoner Queens:
On Friday, State Senator Tony Avella joinedJamaica Hills Bellerose residents to speak out against the abandoned home at 80-44 233rd Street. This home has a long and troubled history, dating back more than ten years. Senator Avella first called attention to the home in 2010, but since then its condition has only worsened. There are boarded up and broken windows, scattered refuse, and dead, overgrown trees and bushes surrounding the property. The current owner owes $27,049.63 in property tax debt, with the last property tax payment made in 2009. The Department of Buildings also has over fourteen complaints against the property dating back to 2002. A “partial vacate order” was issued in 2010.

I believe that this is actually in Bellerose.
These outstanding taxes/fines go back YEARS!
At what point does the city step in and seize it?
If I lived next to this eyesore/vermin habitat I would be annoyed while I payed my property taxes.
Definitely Bellerose. Jamaica Hill is MILES west of there.
You're right.
Something is wrong if it takes more than 5 years to get this problem rectified. If I recall correctly, Joseph Suraci, a Middle Village resident, not a public official, got the City to clean up a similar eyesore within a reasonable period of time by relentlessly pushing for City action. It seems like the Democrats are falling down on the job, in more ways than one, to the detriment of our communities.
As a Democrat with first hand knowledge I gathered thru the years I can tell you many of the people we vote in year after year are really Republicans - they know there are not enough votes and laugh on their way to the bank with our money.
Not a single complaint about this since 2011 ...

But, seriously, something needs to be done about the collection of fines and the enforcement of ECB Violations!!
It would be DOH complaints, not DOB complaints.
