Some Sikeston residents are worried about their property values in a historic neighborhood.
Sikeston resident Larry Hancock addressed Sikeston City Council during Mondays City Council meeting, and voiced his concern over issues near his home in the North Ranney and Lake area.
Hancock said there were sketchy people consistently walking up and down the street, many of them carrying alcohol bought at a local liquor store.
He also added neighbors in rental homes in that area are not caring for their property, including only mowing their yards every three to four weeks.
Vehicles also speed down Ranney Street, according to Hancock, adding to the problems.
