The trash - mostly car parts? - is still there.

You referred this issue to park maintenance but nothing has been done. Please tell me EXACTLY who is responsible for this service request. Your earlier response included general info.

The Oakland Zoo (East Bay Zoological Society) has the legal responsibility to maintain all of Knowland Park. This trash is their responsibility to clean up. The zoo receives significant public monies to maintain the entire Knowland Park, which includes this area. Such dumping is made possible by the unlocked chain on the fire road gate at Golf Links Road & Elysian Fields Way.

I was there today - DECEMBER 18th - and the trash is STILL THERE! Please take care of this. Call the Oakland Zoo if you have to - they're paid to take care of the park.
