Subject: Notice and constructive feedback regarding trash collection at the stated address
I am writing to report a recent sanitation issue and to constructively suggest a structural change to prevent future occurrences.
On 6/17/2026, responsible parties at the stated address did not follow collection guidelines and piled extra bags on top of their full bins. During pickup, the collection crew left one of these excess bags on the ground. Because the bag remained on the curb overnight, local wildlife tore it open. This scattered rotting food waste is now creating a possible health hazard and a severe mess for the neighborhood. Additionally, bins on the street remain at the curb more than 24 hours after collection.
To ensure our neighborhood stays clean and safe, I would like to suggest two updates to current practices:
* Enforce a strict "Tag and Leave" policy: Instead of leaving a loose bag on the ground where animals can access it, crews could leave the bag inside the bin with an educational warning tag.
* Issue reminders for bin removal: Send a neighborhood-wide notice regarding the local ordinance that requires bins to be stored away within 24 hours of collection.
*Have a means to take the extra bags and charge extra for the service.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

There is a light on the property that neighbors my house that violates the light trespass laws. It sits high on a pole in their back yard and subsequently illuminates my backyard as well as both bedrooms in my house. This light is extremely bright and because of this we have had trouble sleeping due to the light coming in to our bedroom. Also because of this light we have not been able to enjoy sitting on our back porch in the evenings due to the light shining directly in to our eyes. I’ve also talked to the neighbor on the other side of the house and she is having issues as well with the light shining on her property. The property that owns the light is currently vacant. I’d like for something to be done about this as it has become a major nuisance to my household.

Three dogs behind fence never stop barking day and night. They are a nuisance and a danger as they are neglected all day to annoy an entire neighborhood- they are the only dogs that do this in neighborhood. I’m constantly awoken because of their viscous barking. Please give the owners notice of codes, and that lawsuits can be filed for negligence which I’m thinking about. The entitlement and selfishness of destroying the peace and quiet of an entire neighborhood because you suck as dog owners or like disturbing your neighbors is completely is not what I signed up for. Totally irresponsible and city of bton is not doing enough. This barking dog syndrome is all over this town. It needs to stop.

We would like to request a welfare check for a dog that has been barking incessantly and disturbing the peace of at least ten homes in the neighborhood for years, with the problem getting worse in recent weeks. Some occupants have lately vacated the property, and the dog seems to be increasingly neglected. At least two dogs have been observed on the property, with one dog that barks for hours on end. The dog(s) is frequently left out in the freezing cold, in extreme heat and humidity, and during thunderstorms, intensifying the poor creature’s anguish and barking. Most nights, the dog barks for hours, and on June 15, the dog barked throughout the day, then constantly from 6 p.m. until well beyond 2 a.m., making it impossible to sleep. Please investigate this unfortunate situation. We are at our wit’s end with the continual barking and are extremely concerned about the dog’s well-being, as it is clearly in distress.
