This empty lot is on North Summit two lots South of 11th. This collection of garbage occurred from a camp during the last several months. The camp has since vacated and has relocated. The same result is sure to occur again unfortunately at a new location. This was reported at the beginning and was told nothing could be done and the neighborhood should work it out. This issue is destroying our city. Regardless of this being a private or city lot or in what area of the city this is taking place someone in city government needs to take ownership and provide the leadership and use of city resources to remedy this issue. Citizens and neighborhood associations can only do so much. Landlords and property owners need to be held accountable. Action needs to be taken. The problem is only getting worse. This case needs to remain active until this situation is resolved. A simple drive by is no solution. It’s obvious that if we cannot take care of the issues on Kirkwood (the focal point of our community) current department leaders are not qualified to continue in their positions. This can be remedied without being harsh or heavy handed. It takes leadership, commitment, communication and perseverance.

See case #186273 - tall sign in yard that has been there for six months. Being held in place by sandbags. Can even be seen on google maps. Who is responsible for removing this? Can we just sell it for scrap?

Significant trash on far east side of Clear Creek trail (lot of areas near encampments). I support people being allowed to lawfully camp but the City simply looking the other way in this location is not working. Give a legal right to camp but people are literally living there with substantial encampment items beyond a tent with sanitation and other issues. For now, please cite property owners or have Parks get the trash cleaned up that is sprawling everywhere beyond where the individuals are living. Thank you.

The Shalom center is trashing the surrounding community and it would be very nice if trash cans could be provided since the center won’t do anything to help. It’s in the streets, in the yards, everywhere.
