Can the City require that garbage dumpsters be screened from the public and/or somehow protected from scavengers and other vermin? This location regularly has so much waste and refuse that it overfills the container and spills over, creating an eyesore, a health risk, and even at times blocking traffic.
trash
Caller to HAND reports that there is trash (old doors, windows, etc) piling up against the garage of the property. It has been there since last summer.
There are many abandoned cars parked in the city right of way.

Auto Heaven (junkyard) is parking junk cars on both the South and North sides of Allen St. Several are on the first block west of Walnut Street, which is not his property. Can you please get him to move these? The unhoused have access to them and sleep in them. It's not safe for them and it's a serious eyesore for pedestrians and bikers. The owner of Auto Heaven should be storing these junk cars behind his fences where they are out of sight and cannot be accessed by the unhoused.
Brawley management has put up "For Rent" signs in the ROWs at multiple locations in the neighborhood along Washington and Lincoln and between 8th and 10th Streets, and likely at other locations around the city. Please remind them to periodically reread the City Code - hopefully, they will eventually learn to be less self-serving and dismissive of the neighbors.
Current apartment new complex just east of Target is operating and blocking Clarizz northbound without any road markings at Clarizz and ,3rd. Creating very dangerous backup. Make sure they get proper road closure precautions in place. Also why were they authorized for a huge ugly parking garage when we are trying to prioritize bike and ped? They're all going to be driving instead of bussing to campus etc created a mess at an already busy area of town. And several more are coming on E 3rd? How about actually planning and deterring such traffic? New construction is the ideal time to protect public transit, not personal vehicles where there are already concerns.
On December 30, 2023, a camping trailer arrived on the property and appears to be occupied, potentially in violation of city codes 20.03.030 (g) Accessory Uses and Structures. (1) Generally (C) Prohibitions. and 20.04.060 (n) Use of Parking Areas. (5) Storage, Occupancy, or Similar Uses. While the parking and occupancy of the trailer itself raise concerns, my main concern lies with the overall condition of the property. Over the past few months, there has been a noticeable accumulation of debris on the driveway, in bushes, and throughout the yard. This includes items such as tires, biking equipment, and various other objects scattered about, which detract from the character and property values of the neighborhood. I understand that personal property management is an individual choice, but the current state of the property at 2603 S Bryan St significantly impacts the surrounding environment and creates a less-than-desirable atmosphere for neighbors. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could investigate this matter and take appropriate action.
