Pavement repair is going to pieces. Chunks of asphalt are all over the road on top of the bridge. Vehicles are kicking up pieces of asphalt on other traffic. At the very least the pieces need to be picked up and hauled away.

I have noticed that past couple of months that there is trash being left or not making it into the dumpster by someone. This is not your normal move out and leave furniture trash. I have been picking it up and dumping it in the trash since it has been drawing animals and insects, and when it rains it washed down into the street. I have included a picture from today. This dumpster does not have an enclosure to make sure trash is mot ending up in the bushes or on the ground and running into the streets or water. Someone in the neighborhood is either missing the dumpster or throwing it next to the dumpster on purpose. There is now broken glass and other dangerous/hazardous items around this dumpster because of it. My observations from the last few weeks of picking it up: The trash will be in plastic or paper grocery bags instead of trash bags. They always have diapers, eaten and uneaten food, canned food opened and unopened, and miscellaneous items like paper, wipes, cardboard, clothing, etc. With it being many instances in broad daylight and where the trash is placed and conditions of the bags, I do not think this is animals dragging the bags from somewhere else. My suspicions are this is a child being send to the dumpster by their parents to throw things out but they cannot reach the height since this is a taller unit. Also, I think it is someone from the granite units at the very ends on the west side of Dorchester, closest to the heritage Dorchester dumpster. First, I have noticed the trash ends up on the ground on the side where the door is closest to the granite units as long as it is open. If it is not, then it is on the other side. Second, I saw kids come from that building and walk to the dumpster and walk around it for a few minutes before they left on Friday. I could see their feet under the carport. I then found a pot with food in it left there when I investigated after they left when there was nothing there earlier. Also, we have valet trash in our units and are expected there use trash bags. I have also seen people from the granite units walk down here and dump their stuff in our trash unit who live on the West side of the street instead of using their own. I have been living here a while and have only recently seen this be a problem where this trash is left outside the bin or haphazardly thrown in there and not picked up when they see it is not in the bin. I thought I would let you know.

The residents of this address have been parking on the street for 12 or more hours at a time. When this happens, the street is no longer "2 way" and vehicles often must wait for the car in the other lane to pass before they can proceed. Drivers often do not have a clear line of sight. The car blocking the street lane is also unsafe for pedestrians who have to wait for traffic to clear to continue walking. There is no sidewalk. This is not the only vehicle related problem at this address. There are always at least 2 vehicles that are not operational and have been sitting in the very sad driveway for years (literally). Vehicles also get parked on the property's grass near the street. There are 2 issues here: appearance and safety. Both are important. I wouldn't want to buy a house near 3616 E. Post, with its constant stream of vehicles and unkempt appearance. The problems at this address continue into the back yard, with a broken down unused shed that is a home for raccoons. And behind the shed are 6 foot high weeds. Please talk to this property owner.
