There is a window by the grass and the parking lot (on right side of building near the dumpsters/ally). There is tons of glass that is a hazard to my dog and others in the community who use this area to let their dogs go to the bathroom (there are at least 5 I know that use this space). The glass is very dangerous and has been ignored. There is also tons of trash in this grass left by workers fixing this building.

I live in the apartments by this building and use the grass lot to let my dog use the bathroom multiple times a day. I’ve been doing so since August. I believe this building is getting turned into the new Police Department. There have been tons of trucks and workers in the parking lot next to the green grass. As a result, TONS of trash and food has been left in the grass. This includes uncrustables food wrappers, bananas, bread crust, plastic bags and more. My dog has been trying to eat all of this waste and it is a choking hazard. Please take care of this issue.

There is a "Republic" dumpster in the parking lot on the east side of this building that has a drain hole on the side that is missing a plug. Rats routinely enter and exit the drain hole of the dumpster and are running all over the parking lot at night. Can the City force the trash people to keep dumpsters in a reasonable condition so that they do not attract and sustain vermin? Note: leaving poison outside does nothing and only serves to harm other animals. Best to seal the dumpsters and keep the garbage contained.

See case #186558. Property is being gutted. No permit posted. Monroe County Building department says a permit, but does not appear to care to enforce their own rules and issue a stop work order until permit is obtained. If the property owners are friends with the inspectors, do they get special treatment?
