homeless creating sanitation issues
I submitted a uReport on 6/16 asking that our trash be picked up with this week (week of 6/17) since our house was skipped last week (the week of 6/10). uReport #188966. I received an email at 6:51am on 6/17 requesting I put my trash out and that a truck was being sent. I did put my trash out, but it was not picked up. I assume I didn't get it out fast enough. This issue was listed as "resolved" and was closed by the City. The issue was not resolved and shouldn't have been closed. Again, I am asking someone to confirm that our house will not be skipped again this week. Trash pick up is Wednesdays for this neighborhood. Can someone confirm that our house won't be skipped again? Thank you.
The alley on the south side of 320 S Jackson has some huge and jarring potholes that need some gravel or patch to fix them. The other alleys in the area that were helped before could use a little touch up. Thanks, Chris
Reports hang up/ don’t submit if you include a photo. They used to be an option to select the photo size, but that is no longer available. Might have something to do with photo size…
Severely deteriorated sidewalk. No longer accessible.
There are two dogwood trees on the sidewalk that have lots of weeds growing at the base and desperately need to be watered.
Overgrown lawn
The morning of June 15, 2024, around 6:30am the Monroe Fire Protection District was out on the Rail Trail for a fire at the homeless camps north of Gordon Pike on City owned property. The City should not be allowing the homeless to openly burn material back in the woods there. The fire department cannot easily get their equipment back into the wooded area to deal with fires at the homeless camps.
June 16, 2024: In the evening the homeless camp on the Rail Trail north of Gordon Pike smelled as if it was burning trash. The smoke was heavy in the area and smelled like burning trash. The City should not be allowing the homeless to openly burn trash on property that is owned by the City along the Rail Trail. This needs to be shut down immediately as it is hazardous to the health of everyone in the are.
The homeless camp along the Rail Trail north of Gordon Pike is burning trash on the evening of June 18, 2024, after 10pm. The smell is very strong in the surrounding area. The City needs to put a stop to this activity immediately as it is occurring illegally on City owned property. The city is allowing the homeless to openly burn on City property, which is ridiculous.
