While I appreciate you trying to address this issue, I'm sorry to inform you that the issue is not resolved. This is an ongoing problem that reoccurs almost daily. Every week or so, somebody reports this same issue, and every time we see the same not-helpful response of "We are pleased to report back to you that this issue is now resolved". Cleaning up one pile doesn't stop the same dumpers from leaving future piles. To really resolve the issue will involve a more well-thought-out approach. Can you direct us to somebody from the City who might be able to help craft a more proper solution? Might involve better signage, might involve having local volunteers/patrols watching to find the usual suspects who repeatedly dump there and chatting with them about finding a better place to donate goods (there are donation boxes outside of various stores in the area, and these would be a more suitable place to leave unwanted items).

I couldn’t agree more. We need to have “no dumping” signs. Also there is a lady that lives on the corner that is the prime dumper on that corner. I’ve seen her unloading her Jeep. Since she started it people now have followed suit. Who do we talk to to have this addressed.
