My next door neighbor, Carl James, (at 703 W. 7th Street) burns trash and plastic and Styrofoam in his wood stove. The smoke is heavy, black and acrid. It is polluting the air. I think there must be regulations against burning trash like this. We have asked him not to do this and explained to him that it creates toxins in the air. A group of neighbors chipped in and bought him two ricks of wood recently, but his son took most of it and resold it. We do not know what else to do. Can someone from the City talk to him about this? Thank you.

Neighbors behind us have outdoor fires in a metal pit many nights. I don’t think they’re cooking for 3 or 4 hours. It often smells like they’re burning things other than wood. It smells bad tonight.

tree caught fire at this homeless camp on the B-link There have been fires in this area for at least 6 months. I own the homes that back up to this section of the B-line. My properties and tenants are in danger. I pay you $70,000. a year in property taxes. I expect a clean and safe environment from the city. People are afraid to use the trail. The crime, filth, needles and fires have to stop. This is no longer a clean city and it is far from safe.
