My neighborhood (Near West Side) has been experiencing a very intense burning trash smell most nights for the past two months. This has been an ongoing issue for the past two years that I’ve lived here, but it has intensified. It causes me headaches and forces me to keep my windows closed and waste energy running my air conditioning. It’s not possible to walk around outside; this only happens at night. There are no neighbors or homeless people burning trash (I have walked around and looked, including on nearby train tracks). I have smelled this same smell coming from JB Salvage. Please help us! This is definitely causing long term health effects for this whole neighborhood.

There is a syringe along the road about half way between 6th and 7th on Oak street. It is right across the street from the very large sycamore tree on the west side.

There was a handbill on my car, under the windshield wiper, in the 4th St. Garage today (image of front of bill attached, the other side is an ad for an event at the Upstairs Pub) as I left from work around 2:45. I noticed on the way out many other cars had the same handbill. I looked up municipal code 14.28.060 to see that it is unlawful to affix advertisements to automobiles in the city. I also saw on a City Solicitor Factsheet that solicitors are not allowed to operate in city owned parking lots or spots of any variation. Can someone follow up with the business to hold them accountable? Thank you.

Attempted to contact Center Point but had no luck. The gas shutoff valve in front of Inkwell has its handle not secured by a padlock. Needs to be secured before someone decides to play with it. Regards, Craig

This has been on going now for over a week it is all day and all night the people that live there are running a generator to run power into the house and to the 2 rvs in the back by the alley. It’s super loud and I can’t take it much more. I’m honestly surprised the SCCAP office hasn’t made any complaints yet.

Checking to see if anyone has gone to the residence about the super loud noise coming from there all day and night. This has been on going for weeks now!

So I once again made a complaint about this horribly loud motor running sound that has gone on for weeks and it runs all day and night and keeps waking my kids up off and on throughout the night (kids who have to get up in the mornings to go to school) and when I just called the BPD to see if anyone was ever going to make it over to the residence I was literally told that the PD decided it wasn't anything they wanted to mess with so disregarded the complaint even tho it's most def in violation of noise ordinance esp late at night and it states if it's a disruptive sound over a certain decibel then it has to be dealt with. So according to the supervisor on duty at this very moment he claims he will get someone sent over there if they get a chance! Lol wow really!! WTG BPD!!

Ugh I’m sorry to have to bother again! I understand there are far more important issues to be tended to but this is just getting ridiculous honestly. Once again I can hear the generator sound running and has officially yet again awaken my kids. My kids have school in the morning and I honestly don’t know what else I can do about this situation. If the electric bill is their issue and the SCCAP office is literally right in walking distance then maybe they should seek assistance to get help paying it. Again I’m very sorry to bother your officers with this issue once again.

I know you guys have been working on this issue but seriously this is gone on for too long now! It’s been 3 weeks since I 1st reported this loud obnoxious generator noise 24/7 for over a month now! If I could afford to just up and move me and my kids I would because I’ve had it with this noise waking my kids up every single night! My kids bedroom is closest to the road so the noise is pretty much in their room with them. But even with my room bein on the opposite side it’s still even loud enough I can hear it clear as ever in my room.. If all the people that live there work there’s no reason they all haven’t put their money together and got the power back on a long time ago or better yet just paid the damn bill to begin with so it wasn’t shut off! I’m sorry but I’m just beyond fed up over this!

Only touching base to see if by any chance any recent updates have been made on the loud generator everyday and night for over a month now almost 2 months actually. Because it still has not slowed down use of the generator nor has it stopped at all. Just wanted to check in on this on going issue. Thank you and again sorry to be such a nag.
