The trash can has been out for over 2 weeks. The property appears vacant. 6.04.110 - Removal of solid waste and recycling carts and yard waste containers. (Ord. No. 17-06, § 1, 3-22-2017; Ord. No. 23-14, § 8, 8-9-2023)
Please have the owners of the trash cans along the west side of Smith Rd just south of the 10th st/Smith Rd intersection REMOVE their trash cans from the bike lane after their trash pick-up day. They can also remove their cans from the street instead of leaving them next to the road. Thank you.
Trash receptacles are left at the curb all the time, no one will bring them off the streets: anonymous neighbor
See case #188814. Action does not appear to have been taken. Rat problem is increasing. This dumpster is *regularly* visited by people who do not live in the complex, both those who drive up, dump their trash and then speed away, and also by those who climb into the dumpster and rummage around for food and other *valuables*. The latter leave a mess (as per attached). Is there any way to force the owners to enclose or secure the dumpster so that only tenants have access to it? Management (Parker Rentals) do not seem to care.
Neighbor appears to be burning trash in am once per week. Thank you.
Refer to cases #186916, #188213, and #188214. Someone ended up putting a rubber stopper in the hole at the base of the dumpster, which temporarily prevented the rats from entering it. However, rubber is a delicacy for rats (which it seems garbage-oriented people should well know) and it was soon devoured. Now the problem is back full-force, with rats running in and out of the dumpster and scurrying around the parking lot. The drain-hole is threaded on the inside, implying that the manufacturer of the dumpster had in mind (and likely supplies) a metal screw-type insert that will be rat-proof. Please ask the company to install the correct type of fitting so that this problem is permanently fixed.
