Mile 31.7 State Rte 129 W Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottPlease please do something about this intersection before there is a serious accident! People speed through this intersection even when the light is red. The timing of the red light is excessively long. Drivers regularly go through the light when it first turns red and also after the pedestrian clears their vehicle, is still in the crosswalk and the light is still red. There should be more police enforcement, shrubs in front of 748 Humphrey should be trimmed for better visibility and the timing of the red light should be decreased immediately. It also seems that a flashing pedestrian light like the one at Salem Street and Humphrey would be more effective at this location. There should also be two regular traffic lights where Humphrey and Atlantic come together - - one on Humphrey (at Forest Ave Ext) and one on Atlantic.

Trash & Recycling IssuesAcknowledged29 Suffolk Ave Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottBlighted property 29-31 Suffolk Ave. This property is semi-abandoned (teenagers/young adults in and out occasionally). The attic window has been wide open for 10 years. Owner is no where to be found, over grown grass and bushes, I've seen many critters around the property. This has been a blight on our neighborhood for many many years.

77 Pine St Swampscott, Massachusetts, 01907 - SwampscottTrash that was not picked up last week was left out and has been hit by cars and eaten by rats. Now blowing around the neighborhood. Absentee landlord. Please post their address so we can box all the trash and send it to them. It's ridiculous the health department has let this house have the same issues repeatedly.

Trash & Recycling IssuesAcknowledged8 Dennison Avenue Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottThis 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 & Recycling IssuesAcknowledged64 Fuller Avenue Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottThis house has had a dumpster in front of it for several years. Trucks (not belonging the residents) pull up and dump their trash in it. This is in violation of by-laws that limit the amount of time a residence can have a dumpster in front of it, as well as who can put trash in it.

Trash & Recycling IssuesAcknowledged6 Jessie Street Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - SwampscottI filed a complaint about my next door neighbor in July of 2023 and again in November of 2023 in regard to the lack of upkeep of the proper gas well as the blatant disregard of picking up their dogs waste in between our two properties.As you can see, there are several examples of dog waste, some of which are actually on my property. This not only is inconsiderate but a health hazard. My wife spoke to one of the occupants about this matter and she disregarded it saying, “ I work 24/ 7 and my mom has cancer.” I would greatly appreciate the matter being addressed since this is my third complaint. In addition, the occupants have an unregistered and uninsured vehicle that has been sitting on their front lawn for well over a year.
