The must have knew that their house was in foreclosure, and they were
getting kicked out, so they probably said "who gives a damn!", and just
dumped out entire bags of salt everywhere!?


If it had been that much it wouldn't just be yellow it'd be dead and
brown. Sounds like they just pile the snow itself containing the salt
in large pile so it concentrated it.

It'll heal in time w/ enough water; depending on locale and water rates
it may be cheaper to have it resodded, removing a few inches of topsoil
in the affected area. If it's such a problem as to make it worth it,
that's the only immediate fix as somebody else noted also.
