The City emailed me to say this case is closed. So I just walked by the dumping site. Not only is all of the original trash still there but there is now more garbage (and multiple parked vehicles that several people are living in).

You can re-open the request. The City engages in a lot of magical thinking when it comes to declaring problems solved!

The City of Oakland fixed this issue on 09/11/2017, service request #758351.

Those same white bags are still there. Plus more trash. Plus another vehicle or two with people living in them.
