Town of Swampscott PIU

It appears an unintended/unforeseen consequence of Swampscott's new smaller trash barrel policy is the explosion of rodents on our street (and I assume other streets). A good 40% of residents on this street now put the overflow bags directly onto the sidewalk/street (much to the delight of the rodents).
So, here's the very real problem (of a street full of kids and rodents that carry disease).
What's the solution? Can the town mandate overflow bags be placed in barrels (with lids) that residents must provide? That would work, but unfortunately many have discarded the old barrels that were deemed 'too big.' Or does the town provide a second 'small' barrel and mandate overflow bags be placed in it?
This is a health/disease issue that cannot be ignored; something needs to be decided/done before the rodent explosion in the spring. I was only able to upload one picture, however I counted six overflow bags that were placed directly onto the ground and were clearly enjoyed by rats (and that was only half of the street). Please don't ignore this in the hopes it just solves itself. The rodent infestation on this street and the danger it causes to our children is a direct result of the town's decision to implement the new smaller trash barrel policy and not plan for the second and third order effects of it.

Leaf pickup on one side not the other
Norfolk Ave

Leaf bag pick up was supposed to be today, multiple bags not picked up

This garbage has been on the sidewalk two weeks now. Can it please be removed?

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!

This pile has been growing and it's wet, stinks, and today I found their trash on my car! Yes, on my car.

There's so much of it they can't keep it under control.

My car is 20-30' down the adjacent driveway in a covered, reserved parking spot. 5 large boxes and one of these trash barrels. This pile is directly outside of my bedroom and living window as well and it's all I see when I open my blinds. It's unsightly and unsanitary.

Bottom line is it needs to be required to be removed please. This picture shows only half of the pile.

Please have this removed. 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...

Trash all over the ground in Jackson Park.

It has been an ongoing issue with trash and recycling. They are leaving my barrels literally in the middle of the street and leaving my neighbors barrels in the middle of MY driveway where I have to move their barrels (multiple) so I can leave my driveway. This is every week and I see it happening to others on my street. Any help is appreciated.

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

Looks like a rat hole underneath the dog waster disposal bin. Saw it the other day and did see the shredded bags. Today shredded bags which makes me think the rats are dragging the bag poop
Into hole to eat.
