    Trash in the median in front of Tony Lena's. It has been there for several weeks. If I had a bigger trash container, I'd pick it up myself. Can DPW get it?

    Still no improvement at 77 Pine St. The trash bags have been sitting on the sidewalk/street since 7pm last night (and once again rodents/animals got into them).

    The maddening thing is the solution is right there in the rear of the photo. Could someone PLEASE stop by there (or get a hold of the property manager) and tell them to use the spare/old barrels to put the overflow bags in, instead of just placing garbage bags directly onto the ground.

    It is obvious the two floors of renters don't care about proper garbage disposal, or the fact they are contributing to the rodent problem on this street. Can the Health Department PLEASE step-in and enforce the City Ordnance on this issue.

    Thank you.

    Trash just off the sidewalk between Vantage condo and STop &shop, there is a mattress in the marsh that has been there for more than a year. Who is responsible for the removal, cleanup? This wouldn’t be acceptable on Humphrey street, or Puritan road.

    There are numerous rusty metal pipes at eismens beach that have been there for quite some time. They are a hazard to beachgoers especially children who like to play on the rocks where the metal pipes are. There are more pipes than the one pictured that are sticking out if the sand. I think they should be removed or at least cut as low as possible so that even when the sand and rocks are at their lowest they do not surface. Thank you.

    Trash cans at the entrance to Phillips Beach are overflowing on the weekends. Trash piles up on the ground near the trash cans and blows around. Please put out more trash cans and more recycling bins since much of the trash is recyclable beverage containers.

    Yesterday I watched someone pull up get out their light blue Bronco and pull out 4 over flow bags and dump them onto our neighbors trash that was awaiting pick up and pull off. This older male has done this several times over the past few weeks. I’m not sure how this is ok, and I’m sure nothing will be done. But isn’t this not ok to be dumping your trash with others on a completely different street ?! Not to mention the amount of over flow bags he tossed and added to our neighbors trash! 4 giant bags of over flow and some other trash items he placed on the ground that the trash didn’t take!

    The trash cans at Linscott Park and on Humphrey St across from Hawthorne by the Sea were overflowing with trash this morning at 10:00am. Makes a very poor impression of the town and attracts rats.

    Overflowing dumpster. When trash company comes to pick it up they just try to collect it without removing overflowing first and trash is scattered all over the street
