Description
All day and night, cars with very loud engines and mufflers are racing down Pembroke Road next to Century Village from Flamingo Road to 136th. The area is residential with senior citizens and single family homes. No stores, nothing. Because of lack of police surveillance, young drivers use that road to race own that road when seniors are sleeping...some with serious health conditions. They should have never opened that road. PLEASE HELP. We need signs for the noise level, and lower the speeding limit to 35 mph. Anything to steer those drivers from the area.

1: Near the east entrance to Hillmont Heights (Lauderdale Manors, along the south edge of NW 20th St. west of Powerline Rd.) there is a street-side parcel listed as "public land" (according to Regrid.com) that is not being mowed, cleaned or maintained (parcel ID# 494228070270) by the city nor by the managers of the property abutting it to the south (parcel 494228200010) listed as Lauderdale Manors LLC, 1923 NW 9th Ave. - this is the company code enforcement said was responsible for its maintenance. A street-side parcel (# 494228130430) just to the east of the un-maintained strip seems to be being maintained by M2J7 Realty Group, the owners of the property abutting it. Can you please resolve who is responsible for maintenance of the garbage-strewn and unmowed strip of land and whether this is the city's or the abutting property owner's duty?
2. The nearby Habitat for Humanity property (parcel 494228310010) and the street-side entrance are being mowed, but the property itself is being used as a storage area for several graffiti covered shipping containers which are visible from the street, and starting to resemble a junkyard and are an eyesore for the residents. We are wondering whether this is legal, as we as residents would be fined for doing it on our property.
Thank you
