If they belong to Dominos and they aren't taking any action to get them out of the street, we can make a complaint to Code Enforcement. inspectioncounter@oaklandnet.com

City of Oakland Public Works Agency referred this issue to CODE ENFORCEMENT, service request # 497887. Please contact that agency to follow-up. For more information, please visit the "Helpful Links to Other Resource Partners" at the link below.

Thank you.

Eileen- thank you for the email address- I sent them a detailed email regarding this matter.

The dumpsters do belong to Domino’s. We spoke with the General Manager Ralph at (805) 765-5397, who acknowledge that the dumpsters (1) belong to them and (2) are an issue. At one point, he stated that he would take care of it. This past Friday, he said there’s nothing he can do nor were efforts made to move them.

I would think that Domino's Corporate would like to know that if anyone get's injured because of this safety hazard, they are at risk for a lawsuit.

Keep after them. Saying there is nothing they can do is lamest excuse. Bins are clearly in red zone and partially blocking crosswalk.

Domino's can put tgeir dumpsters in front of their business. What right do they have creat a safety hazard or creat any inconvenience for pedestrians. In addittion, there is a new rstaurant opening at that corner. Theur customers shouldn't be subject to Domino's trash. Please boycott Domino's until they take care of their own mess and become a responsible neighbor.

Sorry for the typos - must work on my phone typing skills.

This is the reply I got from Domino's Corporate:

Domino's Reference #: 1518828

Eileen,

We appreciate you contacting us and giving us the opportunity to fix the situation. My name is Asia and I will be happy to help resolve your issue.

The Oakland location where you ordered is locally owned, so my first step is to report your concern to the owner. This will give their office the opportunity to hear your feedback firsthand, and do what it takes to keep you as a loyal customer.

Eileen, your feedback is a gift and we appreciate you contacting us. Once again, I am really sorry that we let you down. If you do not hear from a local supervisor in 3 days, please contact us again so that we can make sure this is resolved for you.

Most sincerely,

Asia
Domino's Pizza Customer Care

I have received nothing from the Domino's on Broadway and Third.

As you can see, it was a canned reply as if I got a bad pizza.

If you don't already do so, please boycott them until such time they respect the neighborhood by acting as good neighbors.

I just sent another email to Code Enforcement.

I sent an email to Domino's corporate (same response) and Oakland code enforcement.

I work across the street from this and have witnessed multiple people walk around the dumpsters. This includes onto the street with incoming vehicles driving extremely close to them. I've contacted code enforcement three times with this matter and have attempted to talk to the local Dominoes (I'll try Domino's Corporate next).

I called the State Council on Developmental Disabilities as I've witnessed wheelchair users and legally blind persons waiting and walk in the street with active traffic. I'm told that Gabriel with SCDD is looking into the matter and will be contacting me shortly with options to have these moved permanently. I'll update everyone once I speak with him.

That's a very good approach. Thanks!

Unless they have an encroachment permit, they are in violation of Oakland Municipal code:

12.08.140 Unlawful encroachment—Enforcement by citation—Enforcing officers other than Oakland Police.permanent link to this piece of content

A.
No person shall, except in compliance with the terms of a major, or minor, or a short term encroachment permit issued according to the provisions of this title, encroach upon or into the public street or sidewalk area in the city in a manner or manners for which such permit or permits would be needed.

In the event that the encroachment has created a condition dangerous to the public requiring immediate removal, the Director of Public Works may immediately remove such encroachment, restore the public street or sidewalk and bill the permittee or owner of record as set forth above. The Director of Public Works shall forthwith inform the permittee or owner of record of said condition, work done and costs thereof.
E.
Any person violating any of the provisions of this section shall be deemed guilty of an infraction.

Thanks, Jeff, for doing that.

While driving by the dumpsters today I noticed the addresses on the dumpsters - 314 Broadway (Domino's) and 300 Broadway (Dragon Gate - new restaurant on corner). Not sure who is using the third one. Regardless, these business' should move these out of the crosswalk.

Oakland Public Works/Code Violations what are you doing about this?

Imagine if every restaurant put a dumpster or two out in the street. It's not a temporary construction zone where you get a permit to temporarily encroach on the public right of way.

Better question is what is the Jack London Square District Assoc doing? Our neighborhood seems to be getting worse. Higher property taxes, district fees and zero services.....

Well, it appears that the dumpster was moved from the crosswalk. For about a week this was clean- now there's a buildup of trash in the same spot. walking by it, I saw empty boxes of frying oil and later a few people ripping the bags apart for food/items.

This is not a solution- if anything, this is far more disgusting than before! What is being done to address this?

The trash on corner was reported 2 days ago (http://seeclickfix.com/issues/937603) - nothing done yet.

Great. Now they are dumping the trash directly on the street. They need to be cited.

Closed.
