I see children walk in the street to avoid the trash and smell which should not happen. I contacted Councilman Kalbs office regarding this issue. Thier response instructed me to call and complain to the police before a process to remove the camp takes place. I plan on calling everyday if that's what it takes. SMH our city government sucks

Thank you.

what do you do when illegal dumping, drugs, and toxic waste are all present at one location? Shouldn't the onus be on the city to find a way to confront all of these issues in one online service? Illegal dumping at the level it is in Oakland is a crime
