I’m sure the buckets weren’t intended t be dog poop receptacles. Request cleanup and better option to throw away bags

This property has been abandoned for some time. When I walk my dogs in the evening I typically see a rat or 2 scurry towards the house (disgusting) I can only assume this is a health and safety issue for the neighborhood.

Trash all over the ground in Jackson Park.

Old Appliances have been out on the curb for over two weeks. Two refrigerators and a stove.

broken glass bottle shards (lots of little pieces) near center court in the basketball court. a kid threw a glass bottle. poses a danger to all the little kids running around.

Corner of Mudge, hillside and cherry. Weeds, trash and broken glass bottles.

Mor peopel are coming to litter section not being maintained by landlords or city.

Please help. Multiple rats have been seen because of this.

Pine St. is experiencing a rodent problem. The rodents feed/thrive on poor trash management. Rodents are in and out of the trash at 77 Pine St all the time. This pic was taken on Thursday, by Monday (trash day), the trash bags will be all over the ground. The landlord of these units is not supplying his tenants with overflow bags, or the tenants are not purchasing them themselves. The overflow bags could be placed in the 'old' barrels (seen on the left of the pic), thus keeping all trash bags in barrels with lids and out of reach of the rodents. Something needs to be done about this, or we'll never reduce the rodent/disease threat on this street filled with children.

Leaf pickup on one side not the other
Norfolk Ave

I am a neighbor of the property of 54 Foster Road.
One photo depicts the backyard grass which hasn’t been cut in a year in a half.
There are animals that have taken up residence in the overgrown grass and get into my yard at night.
Last weekend my dog killed a rabbit that could have possibly come in from that property.
The second picture depicts trash that has been left on the stoop for two and a half weeks.
As you again can see animals have gotten into the trash and is of grave concern.
Last week while cutting my lawn a wild Turkey was feeding off the trash and had to keep my head on a swivel for concern the turkey might attack.
I would appreciate the matter being addressed.
Thank you!

Are barrels of leaves labeled as such still picked up or did something change? I put out a barrel of leaves today and it wasn't picked up. I can leave it out there if they can come back tomorrow...
