MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- A property owner has been cited for allowing a home for recovering addicts to open in a Cooper-Young house. A Vision for You Recovery operates three sober living homes in middle Tennessee and has been trying to set up one in the 1900 block of Nelson Avenue that would house up to 11 people. A neighbor said at least one resident moved into the Nelson house on Tuesday, and two days later, police were called to the home due to a disturbance there. "I could see the guy outside on the front porch by himself. He's talking loudly. I don't know if he's talking to someone inside or having a mental breakdown and talking to himself," said David Lindsey. "Eventually, he lies down, and he's there until 7:45 a.m. when police show up." 1900 block of Nelson Avenue in the Cooper-Young area MPD said officers were called about a suspicious person, and officers gave a man a ride. Video from a house across the street shows the man exiting the sober home with his belongings and getting into the back of a police car. "It seems like they kicked him out, and he refused to leave and was sleeping on the porch, and they called the cops," Lindsey said. "They didn't arrest him. He didn't leave in handcuffs. I think they just picked him up and took him someplace else." Lindsey said he doesn't know why the man was kicked out of the house, but this is why he and other neighbors don't want the drug recovery home on the street. "I don't know what their success rate is, but they proposed having a dozen or so guys living in this single residency house, all fresh out of jail or drugs. We have no idea," said Lindsey. "We know it's a good cause. We wish them well, but this neighborhood has many kids and single women." A city spokesperson said the property did not meet the city zoning ordinance requirements and was cited this week. In addition to the owners, A Vision for You Recovery also received a citation. Man from drug recovery home seen getting a ride from police WREG tried to contact the owners of Vision for You Recovery to find out what happened at the house, but we have not heard back from anyone. In July, the city told WREG that the drug recovery home violated zoning ordinances prohibiting a rooming house in the neighborhood. A city spokesperson said the transitional home was also considered a social service institution and could only operate in certain commercial and industrial districts with a special use permit. City says no to home for recovering addicts in Midtown neighborhood Over the summer, co-founder Tyler Bell told WREG he knew the owners of the Nelson house were having trouble selling it, and he saw this as an opportunity to help people in the Memphis area. The six-bedroom house was listed on Zillow for $419,000 but was removed from the market in June. Bell said they had no problem setting up the other sober living homes, and it should be allowed under the Federal Housing Law. Company representatives have not confirmed to WREG that anyone has moved into the house, but they told The Daily Memphian that residents had moved in because the city had not responded for weeks.
