Trash everywhere.
Trash in back yard; trash in front yard with foul smelling rotten meat. House vacant and trash not tagged for friday trash pick up.
The property located at 2622 has trash on the back porch as well as in the yard. There is now a foul odor coming from the area. Someone drug some of the trash to the front of the house but he does not know if there are any stickers on the bags. The pickup is not until Friday. The caller does not know if someone is still living there. It is a rental and he has tried contacting the owners but to no avail.
THERE IS A CONSTRUCTION DUMPSTER IN FRONT OF THIS PROPERTY AND THERE IS NO OBVIOUS CONSTRUCTION GOING ON. STATES NEIGHBORHOOD TRASH IS BEING DUMPED THERE AND IT IS STINKING. ALSO HOW LONG CAN IT SIT THERE?
CALLER IS TENANT. HAS TRIED TO GET PROPERTY OWNER TO REMOVE A WOODEN PULL-TYPE TRLR FROM BACKYARD. THIS TRLR CONTAINS PAINT CANS; BOARD WITH NAILS AND OTHER TRASH AND IT IS A HAVEN FOR MOSQUITOS ETC. THEY ARE UNABLE TO USE THE BACKYARD FOR COOKOUTS AND IS AFRAID HER GRANDCHILDREN WILL GET HURT. I DID NOT SCHEDULE A COMPLAIN INSP SINCE IT APPEARS TO BE TRASH AND HAND INSP CAN DRIVE BY.
The citizen stated that there are bags and cans of trash that have been left out in front of 424. The tenants have moved out. There are no stickers on any of the trash.

MOTHER OF TENANTS: REPORTS THIS WEEKEND THAT THEY VISITED AND SAW NUMEROUS RATS AT THE AREA WHERE THE TRASH IS PUT. THERE IS NO DUMPSTER; A CONCRETE PAD WITH SOME TRASH CANS AND THE KIDS ARE AFRAID TO GO NEAR THIS AREA SO THEY THROW THE BAGS IN. SAID THE KIDS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS THRU THE SCHOOL YEAR. ASKED AND SHE DID STATE THE RATS ARE NOT IN THE BUILDING AS FAR AS SHE KNOWS.

He has called in before about this problem and it was taken care of. He did not know who he talked to before and I could not find anything in the system.
