NOTICE:

During routine inspections of the tornado area many safety hazards were recorded.
I am requested that if you own property that was damaged or destroyed to please clean up the area including but not limited to filling in of open basements, pools, etc. We have delayed code enforcement to give everyone time to adjust but will soon begin to send citations on properties that are a potential safety hazard to other citizens or in violation of codes. Thanks for your attention to your property and cleaning up our community.

The city needs to fix all the hazardous sidewalks that are a safety hazard to citizens

They also need to tear down all of the abandoned houses around town that's also a very big safety hazard

The city sure didn’t care about that hazardous mess that lay behind the buildings on the square for a couple years. It’s the start of the land grab by the City of Dawson Springs, Kentucky

As someone who is dealing with this currently, I can tell you that excavation companies are backed up for months. It costs at least $5000 to fill in a basement. Dirt and/or rock is not cheap. Is there some sort of assistance that is available to homeowners? In many instances, filling in the basement costs more than the property is currently worth. I am all about making our town safe again, but I am sure there are people that just don’t have it.

As a city council member who completely lost home, vehicles, and most of my personal belongings...I completely support this. I chose to rebuild my home on Lumber Street...which is the block up from the Village Apartments. I have an open field behind me which is overgrown and hazardous. Several property owners on my block have continued to maintain their property where they lost everything as well. It can be done....has the city handled everything correctly since the tornado?? Probably not...but, I myself, know that no matter who was in office this past year....would have been challenged in how they would have handled a history -making, violent, tornado that was on the ground for 200 miles.

It takes years for people and cities to recover from something like this. Shouldn’t expect it in 10 months.

Can we fix the roads too?

Lol the city has left debris and and left over torn down buildings for years... now they have the audacity to punish its citizens because they're once standing home has been took out by a torando? Jesus time to elect a new Mayor. This guy sucks.

About pools, what about them needs to be done. We just had one put in and it has a locking ladder and is not in-ground.

What am i suppose to do to the back part of my garage that’s falling down? The contractor we have just got our new windows and we are waiting on siding which could be next year for that. They won’t mess with the garage until they have the house done.

mayor smiley just want you to know i do have a mess in my front yard and side yard. that is work in progress! the side yard iam having a decorative retaining wall put in. iam still locating material and in the process there was a gas line discovered that is very shallow. atmos has a ticket in on it but it will be 3 to 4 weeks before they can address it. when this is all done my house will have a very nice curb appeal. so please you the city and code enforcers bare with me on this project . thank you for what you are doing .......sam

Wow, as if these poor residents of Dawson arent dealing with enough. Maybe the powers that be in Dawson should figure out a way to help their residents instead of tacking more costs onto their already broke pockets. Dawson is a special community and will always be my home. It used to be a close community where neighbors helped neighbors and people cared for each other. Maybe some of you " powers that be" could slide out from behind your desks and roll up your sleeves and help these people tend to these things instead of fining them money they most likely dont have. Most of these people lost everything. Why make it harder on them?

Be careful cuz

The city has the most safety hazardous of all

Mr Mayor, can we get a form on the website to report city owned property hazards? I'm sure the city would appreciate having a central spot for the citizens to report our safety concerns with either city owned property or other areas.
