Description

This is my second attempt to have resolution to dumping in the alley behind 2751 3rd Ave S. My previous attempt included photos and a detailed description of WHAT was being dumped, and WHO was doing the dumping. I have also spoken to the Police, which were called and trash driver, who both stated that dumping in the alley comes with a $500 fine. My previous complaint was closed stating they have scheduled clean up of the alley. I will be attaching more photos that show the increased amount of trash and the lack of the city to address the problem, with the solution described by law. I have spoken with an individual that stated they are the head of Code Compliance, an individual who stated they are the head of sanitation, and a police officer that stated he was our community liaison officer. Each gave us a business card. Phone calls were made to both individuals regarding this issue and requesting a return phone call. NEITHER BELIEVE IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO RETURN PHONE CALLS concerning an ongoing issue for more than 3 years. When officials refuse to address the issue and resolve according to the law, many assumptions are drawn on why certain people are allowed to do as they wish and face no consequences, which is not appropriate either. Am requesting the individual that identifies them self as the head of code compliance and the individual that identifies them self as the head of sanitation to return the phone calls from messages I have left on your answering machines regarding this issue. I am asked to provide "What are you reporting?' strangly, illegal dumping in an alley is not on the list.
