Stop notifying the city of Oakland and call your local congressperson's office, Barbra Lee, to get some representation as to where your local tax dollar are going and also get answers as to why this continues to be an issue in your area, but the rockridge and/or piedmont type of areas don't seem to have this same issue.

Here's the 2012 Infrastructure Report Card for the PWA from the former director. This doesn't cover illegal dumping, but you will see we desperately need funds. There is only so much money and it is not enough. Obviously, we need more state and federal funds.

Illegal dumping is uncommon in Rockridge. Perhaps because there are more owners vs. tenants. If street sweeping was not being done there, the neighborhood would complain loudly. Having strong neighborhood organizations that are invested in the community helps. We need to stop dumping on our own city and expect others to clean up after us and we need to deter and prosecute illegal dumpers who think they can dump things like 21 tires, construction debris and truckloads of other trash on our streets with impugnity. Oakland residents are dumping U-Hauls full of crap on Oakland streets instead of taking it to the dump in San Leandro. We plant trees and idiots go around snapping them off. We clean up graffiti and there is more the next day.

This article is worth reading:

...or those who are hired this includes contractors, by others, to legally dump should stop illegally dumping in our area because they the that they will not be subjected to prosecution.

Closed? Does this mean that this issue was addressed/taken care of? Someone from the neighorhood verify this, please.

Really? As of 12:15 it was not resolved; It is NOT OK if the City is making false statements. Who is responsible for this erroneous reporting to our area?
