Bobby Crofford lodged the complaint against his neighbor, Mark Galaska who lives at 711 East 17th Street and a candidate for Mayor of Falls City in the upcoming election.
Crofford said Galaska's yard is full of weeds, brush that grows up into the power lines, scrap metal, wood, junk cars, hornets, bees and feral cats and that he would like to see it cleaned up.
Falls City Police Chief Jamie Baker said the police department has dealt with the property before.
Galaska says he has faced a number of issues including his home being broken into and damage done to his vehicles, but that he will get the property cleaned up.
City Administrator Gary Jorn said officials had visited with Galaska last week about the issues brought forth and gave him two months to clean the property up or the city would come in and do it.
There was a previous abatement case against Glaska's property in 2021.
