tree caught fire at this homeless camp on the B-link
There have been fires in this area for at least 6 months. I own the homes that back up to this section of the B-line. My properties and tenants are in danger. I pay you $70,000. a year in property taxes. I expect a clean and safe environment from the city. People are afraid to use the trail. The crime, filth, needles and fires have to stop. This is no longer a clean city and it is far from safe.

Tried to include photo but request hung up. 507 W. Dixie Street has entire yard (front and back) crammed with debris. HAND volunteers tried to clean it up but owner and homeless brought in more faster than they could get rid of it. House is fire hazzard due to being filled with debris and only front door usable. No other exit usable. Rats have been seen on property. Owner is Al Hines who is on psycho drugs for Schitsaphrena. this apears to be situation of Adult Protective Services
Thank you

There is an encampment to the east of Somersbe along the access road that runs parallel to Rogers Road that is hazardous and toxic. Earlier in the summer this was reported anonymously for fear of retaliation. Apparently 3 entities own the property - the city, county, and a railroad. All that has happened so far to address this problem is a huge dumpster being moved to the access road and MORE people moving to the encampment when Switchyard Park was cleared. I am sending a plea for clean up. I am not representing specific people in the Somersbe neighborhood, but alerting your office to the issues that have been discussed. This morning open fires were burning along the access road. There is garbage, human and animal waste, unleaded dogs, along with illegal camping sites. At the beginning of June 2024 police were called because of a disturbance including threats of murder, and the fire department was called because of all the smoke.
Our backyards are no longer safe, it is difficult to sleep with open windows or be in our yards or on our decks because of the smoke, screaming, and safety of being chased. This apparently happened to at least 2 residents this summer.
A dumpster does not equate to crisis management.
It is difficult to communicate when we have to do it anonymously for fear of retribution.
I am not being redundant, I am providing documentation.
