Overflowing dumpster at the apartment building at 809 S. Henderson, plus the dumpster is not in its enclosure, but rather next to it.
Sent Monday, May 21: "I have been to your office to complain about the mess at 823 w. 7th street. The front porch is covered with trash that has been accumulating for 15-20 years. The back and side yards are overgrown and contain litter and receptacles that can fill with standing water. The property is a breeding ground for mosquitos, rats, and other pests. I and several neighbors believe it poses a risk to public health. Your enforcement officer took a look, but told me that nothing was ticketable. I respectfully disagree. While the overgrown vegetation is not “turf grass”, it is a menace and eyesore. The garbage on the porch attracts human as well as animal pests. It invites others to litter and dump on the property. Although I was at your office, I was not given a complaint form to sign. Nor was I able to submit a complaint on your website. (I don’t know why unless it was my iPad) I definitely want to file an official complaint and have it kept on record. I also ask you to reconsider and help us to clean up this blight on the neighborhood. Thank you."
Location of your Problem: 833 W 4th Street Details: The property has overgrown bushes, weeds, and trees surrounding it, which are unsightly. There is a variety of junk in the back yard of the house. This property stands out in a bad way, in what is otherwise a nice area of W. 4th Street.
