Neighbors trash overflowing, spilling everything as animals get into it.
Neighbors trash overflowing, spilling everything as animals get into it.
Trash bins have been sitting in front yard and on sidewalk for weeks. Request they be stored in back (west side) of house.
There is a ton of trash in the drive way that has been there for months.
Trash overflowing from cans. Bags sitting on the ground and into the alleyway. Animals and scavengers have started getting into it and rain is collecting in the open cans creating a stench.
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.
The several trash bins at this property continue to be overfilled and surrounded by garbage. The trash blows onto Walnut St and onto neighboring properties. These bins have looked like this for a few weeks. Thank you for your help.
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.
Old abandoned garage that is falling apart. This is on a rental property and the owners of this property have not touched the building in the 3 years we have lived next to them. There is a car behind the garage and another car in the garage. The building is falling apart and is a safety hazard to kids in the neighborhood. Many stray animals may be living in this structure, and have seen suspicious peoples coming from it from time to time as well (as if they are squatting there). Please help resolve this issue, as it is a huge danger to my family’s safety.
At the intersection of Clark and 8th Street, there is a house that the owner has completely filled with old newspapers. Now that the house has no more space he is starting to put newspapers into the front yard. The owner has also put gas containers in front of the building. I am concerned that this is a big fire hazard.
Abandoned pool at abandoned house full of liquid containing unknown substances. No covering which allowed for children and animals to fall in.
