Description
I've reported about this issue before, but once again the alley between 10 and 18 central ave is filthy again. The dumpster behind this one is full, and it appears there's been bagged trash ripped over and throw everywhere.
I want more than just a ticket written to the building over of these dumpsters. I want the city talk to the landlord of the building so he can instruct his tenants about the importance of picking up their trash and keeping that area clean of trash and debris.
This mess repeatedly happens over and over again all summer and very little is done (except tickets issued). I live around the corner and at night you can watch the hoards of rats come scurrying out from behind this building (and 114 Shurtleff). We have enough problems with rats in this neighborhood, let's not give them a food source so they will never leave.

I guess I should reply to this thread for people who are reading this. I did contact the person JR said initially directly. I got an answer with in a few hours. He said he would be contact as many departments at the city to assist.
About four days later most of the trash is gone. However I will state it's building again. I think the issue really is about education to the tenants to state that.. 'if the dumpsters are full, don't keep throwing bags on top because they just rip". I honestly don't think issuing citations is enough for this in this case, the landlord needs to speak to his tenants, and also have dumpster pick up more than once a week so the dumpsters are empty.
Keep the ticket open. I'm going to wait until next week before I see if the problem gets worse or not.
