Description
For well over six contiuous months, homeless encampment has been an issue on this street and it is still ongoing. OPW has successfully addressed removal of abandoned vehicles in May, but the illegal dumping onto private property and litter due to homeless encampment remains an issue. They attract rodents, pests, feral cats, and fleas. This is a serious safety hazard to children and adults and need to be addressed immediately.
